phpdox: Generate documentation using a specific configuration file.
$ phpdox --file ${path-to-phpdox-xml}
try on your machine

The given command is used to run the phpDox tool with a specified XML configuration file.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • phpdox: This is the command to execute the phpDox tool.
  • --file: This is an option/flag for the phpDox command, specifying that the following argument is the path to the XML configuration file.
  • ${path-to-phpdox-xml}: This is a placeholder indicating that you need to replace it with the actual path to your phpDox XML configuration file. The XML file contains the project-specific configuration settings and directives for phpDox to generate documentation.

To use the command, you should replace ${path-to-phpdox-xml} with the actual file path. For example, if your XML configuration file is located at /path/to/phpdox.xml, the command would be:

phpdox --file /path/to/phpdox.xml

Executing this command will trigger phpDox to process the XML configuration file and generate the corresponding documentation for your PHP project according to the specified settings.
