MTRGen
File generator engine that can generate PHP files from JSON/YAML/NEON templates.
Requirements
- PHP >= 7.4
- Composer
Instalation
Install with Composer:
1
composer require matronator/mtrgen --dev
Troubleshooting
If you get this error when trying to install:
1
matronator/mtrgen v1.0.0 requires composer-runtime-api ^2.2 -> found composer-runtime-api[2.1.0] but it does not match the constraint.
Run this command to update composer to the latest version:
1
composer self-update
If you can’t or don’t want to update composer, use version "^1.0" of this package as that doesn’t depend on Composer runtime API 2.2.
Quickstart

Acknowledgement
This project would not be possible without Nette’s php-generator package, which is used for the final code generation itself to output the finished PHP file.
