PHP Copy Paste Detector¶

Detects duplicate code in your project.

Type: phpcpd
Accelerable: No (needs the full codebase for duplication detection)
Default executable: vendor/bin/phpcpd

Keywords¶

Keyword	Type	Description	Example
`paths`	Array	Directories to check.	`['src']`, `['./']`
`exclude`	Array	Paths to exclude.	`['vendor']`, `['vendor', 'tests']`
`min-lines`	Integer	Minimum identical lines to detect.	`5`, `10`
`min-tokens`	Integer	Minimum identical tokens to detect.	`70`, `100`

Plus all common keywords.

Examples¶

Minimal:

'phpcpd_src' => [
    'type'  => 'phpcpd',
    'paths' => ['src'],
],

Full:

'phpcpd_src' => [
    'type'       => 'phpcpd',
    'paths'      => ['src'],
    'exclude'    => ['vendor', 'tests'],
    'min-lines'  => 5,
    'min-tokens' => 70,
],

Why not accelerable?¶

phpcpd detects duplicated code across the entire codebase. Analyzing only staged files would miss duplications between staged and non-staged code.
