classfinder/classfinder

A utility for obtaining fully qualified class names from a directory.

ClassFinder

This is a class adapted from the old Illuminate\FileSystem\ClassFinder class that was in the Laravel source once upon a time., _(*1)

Call ClassFinder::findClasses($path) to obtain a list of fully qualified class names from the given directory. By default this will match any file with an extension of .php, but a second optional parameter can be passed in to provide a different matching pattern (eg *Service.php), _(*2)

If the directory is potentially non-existent, ClassFinder::findClassesSafely($path) can be called, which will return an empty array if the directory does not exist., _(*3)

A fully qualified class name for a single class may also be obtained through ClassFinder::findClass($pathToClass), _(*4)
