Thanks for your help.

Why the code is so old?

Philosophy

PhpMetrics has several goals:

• be stable
• be performant
• run on the maximum of PHP versions (PHP 5.3 to PHP 8.4)
• be installable everywhere, without dependency conflicts

For these reasons, the code of PhpMetrics is intentionally written in "legacy" PHP.

Dependencies

Not all projects are on the latest version of PHP, Symfony, or Laravel. Yes, there are projects that use Symfony 2. And these projects may also need metrics and quality.

For these reasons, PhpMetrics comes with the minimum of dependencies. Only the dependency on nikic/php-parser is accepted.

No Pull Request that modifies the require block will be accepted.

Releasing

Please NEVER tag manually.

Requirements

You will need to install :

• docker
• make

Usage

These commands will create phar, debian and binary release, then run all tests and push new release to Github:

make release TAG=<vx.y.z>
# where x is the major version, y is the minor version and z is the patch version
