Nette X-Ray

X-Ray shows you exactly how your project uses the Nette ecosystem: which methods, Latte filters and configuration keys you actually use.

Ever wondered which Nette methods you call the most? Which Latte filters you actually use? Whether anyone still touches that old configuration key? X-Ray scans your code with static analysis and answers that with a clear HTML report.

What Gets Analyzed

Instead of regex or guessing, X-Ray uses static analysis: it resolves types through inheritance, detects declaring classes and tracks argument patterns. The result is an accurate picture of how your project interacts with Nette.

PHP and PHPT	Latte templates	NEON configuration
method & function calls	tags & n:attributes	DI service patterns
arguments (positional, named)	filters & their arguments	extension registration
return value usage	functions & constants	section usage
property access	syntax variants	configuration keys
class inheritance & traits
method overrides

Installation

Install it via Composer as a dev dependency:

composer require --dev nette/xray

It requires PHP 8.2 or higher and runs on PHPStan 2.1. It works with any project using Nette, Latte, Tracy, Dibi or Texy.

Usage

Point it at your source directories:

vendor/bin/xray app/ src/

Within moments you get an interactive HTML report (xray-report.html) you can open in your browser, plus machine-readable data (xray-report.json):

Configuration

Create a nette-xray.neon file in your project root to customize the behavior:

# Default analysis paths (used when no CLI arguments are given)
paths:
	- app
	- src

# Additional directories to exclude (vendor, temp, node_modules, .git are excluded by default)
excludeDirs:
	- generated

# Auto-upload without asking
upload: false
