Summary

The flagship of the set. @source directives embed a real file -- not a copy -- into your documentation at parse time, with automatic syntax class detection, precise line-range selection, optional line numbers, and per-line highlighting. Your docs and your source stay in sync by construction.

composer require

composer require alto/commonmark

use League\CommonMark\Environment\Environment;

@source "src/Service.php" {lines: 10-30, numbers: true, highlight: "14,18-20"}
