If you only need this library during development, for instance to run your project's test suite, then you should add it as a development-time dependency:

composer require --dev phar-io/manifest

Usage Examples

Read from `manifest.xml`

use PharIo\Manifest\ManifestLoader;
use PharIo\Manifest\ManifestSerializer;

$manifest = ManifestLoader::fromFile('manifest.xml');

var_dump($manifest);

echo (new ManifestSerializer)->serializeToString($manifest);

Output

```shell object(PharIo\Manifest\Manifest)#14 (6) { ["name":"PharIo\Manifest\Manifest":private]=> object(PharIo\Manifest\ApplicationName)#10 (1) { ["name":"PharIo\Manifest\ApplicationName":private]=> string(12) "some/library" } ["version":"PharIo\Manifest\Manifest":private]=> object(PharIo\Version\Version)#12 (5) { ["originalVersionString":"PharIo\Version\Version":private]=> string(5) "1.0.0" ["major":"PharIo\Version\Version":private]=> object(PharIo\Version\VersionNumber)#13 (1) { ["value":"PharIo\Version\VersionNumber":private]=> int(1) } ["minor":"PharIo\Version\Version":private]=> object(PharIo\Version\VersionNumber)#23 (1) { ["value":"PharIo\Version\VersionNumber":private]=> int(0) } ["patch":"PharIo\Version\Version":private]=> object(PharIo\Version\VersionNumber)#22 (1) { ["value":"PharIo\Version\VersionNumber":private]=> int(0) } ["preReleaseSuffix":"PharIo\Version\Version":private]=> NULL } ["type":"PharIo\Manifest\Manifest":private]=> object(PharIo\Manifest\Library)#6 (0) { } ["copyrightInformation":"PharIo\Manifest\Manifest":private]=> object(PharIo\Manifest\CopyrightInformation)#19 (2) { ["authors":"PharIo\Manifest\CopyrightInformation":private]=> object(PharIo\Manifest\AuthorCollection)#9 (1) { ["authors":"PharIo\Manifest\AuthorCollection":private]=> array(1) { [0]=> object(PharIo\Manifest\Author)#15 (2) { ["name":"PharIo\Manifest\Author":private]=> string(13) "Reiner Zufall" ["email":"PharIo\Manifest\Author":private]=> object(PharIo\Manifest\Email)#16 (1) { ["email":"PharIo\Manifest\Email":private]=> string(16) "reiner@zufall.de" } } } } ["license":"PharIo\Manifest\CopyrightInformation":private]=> object(PharIo\Manifest\License)#11 (2) { ["name":"PharIo\Manifest\License":private]=> string(12) "BSD-3-Clause" ["url":"PharIo\Manifest\License":private]=> object(PharIo\Manifest\Url)#18 (1) { ["url":"PharIo\Manifest\Url":private]=> string(26) "https://domain.tld/LICENSE" } } } ["requirements":"PharIo\Manifest\Manifest":private]=> object(PharIo\Manifest\RequirementCollection)#17 (1) { ["requirements":"PharIo\Manifest\RequirementCollection":private]=> array(1) { [0]=> object(PharIo\Manifest\PhpVersionRequirement)#20 (1) { ["versionConstraint":"PharIo\Manifest\PhpVersionRequirement":private]=> object(PharIo\Version\SpecificMajorAndMinorVersionConstraint)#24 (3) { ["originalValue":"PharIo\Version\AbstractVersionConstraint":private]=> string(3) "7.0" ["major":"PharIo\Version\SpecificMajorAndMinorVersionConstraint":private]=> int(7) ["minor":"PharIo\Version\SpecificMajorAndMinorVersionConstraint":private]=> int(0) } } } } ["bundledComponents":"PharIo\Manifest\Manifest":private]=> object(PharIo\Manifest\BundledComponentCollection)#8 (1) { ["bundledComponents":"PharIo\Manifest\BundledComponentCollection":private]=> array(0) { } } } ```
