Bring PHPdoc to include CakePHP .ctp files

Question

I'm documenting my CakePHP app using PHPdocumentor. As you might know, after CakePHP convention, the views are contained in .ctp files (e.g. app/views/addresses/index.ctp), which are basically normal PHP files just with a changed file extension. PHPdocumentor only recognizes .php files, and I cannot find an option in the config file to let it know of the .ctp files. THis section come closest to what I want:

;; comma-separated list of files to parse
;; legal values: paths separated by commas
;filename = /path/to/file1,/path/to/file2,fileincurrentdirectory

But as it seems it doesn't acceppt wildcards like *.php, and I really don't want to write a list of my 50 view files into this config file (unless there's a better solution). Is there a possibility to configurate phpdoc globally to include .ctp files or do I have to change this in a somewhat hackish was somewhere in the phpdoc source?

Answer 1

You should update the [_phpDocumentor_phpfile_exts] section of your phpDocumentor.ini file to include any additional file extensions that you want phpDocumentor to parse.
