The class Certificate has 13 public methods. Consider refactoring Certificate to keep number of public methods under 10. Open
class Certificate
{
/**

TooManyPublicMethods
Since: 0.1
A class with too many public methods is probably a good suspect for refactoring, in order to reduce its complexity and find a way to have more fine grained objects.
By default it ignores methods starting with 'get' or 'set'.
Example
Source https://phpmd.org/rules/codesize.html#toomanypublicmethods
Avoid using static access to class '\DateTime' in method 'extractDataFromPath'. Open
$month_date = DateTime::createFromFormat('m', $match['month'] ?? '');- Read upRead up

StaticAccess
Since: 1.4.0
Static access causes unexchangeable dependencies to other classes and leads to hard to test code. Avoid using static access at all costs and instead inject dependencies through the constructor. The only case when static access is acceptable is when used for factory methods.
Example
class Foo
{
public function bar()
{
Bar::baz();
}
}Source https://phpmd.org/rules/cleancode.html#staticaccess
The method extractDataFromPath uses an else expression. Else clauses are basically not necessary and you can simplify the code by not using them. Open
} else {
$this->description = $this->filename;

ElseExpression
Since: 1.4.0
An if expression with an else branch is basically not necessary. You can rewrite the conditions in a way that the else clause is not necessary and the code becomes simpler to read. To achieve this, use early return statements, though you may need to split the code it several smaller methods. For very simple assignments you could also use the ternary operations.
Example
class Foo
{
public function bar($flag)
{
if ($flag) {
// one branch
} else {
// another branch
}
}
}Source https://phpmd.org/rules/cleancode.html#elseexpression
Avoid unused parameters such as '$path'. Open
protected function extractDataFromPath(string $path): void- Read upRead up
- Exclude checks
UnusedFormalParameter
Since: 0.2
Avoid passing parameters to methods or constructors and then not using those parameters.
Example
class Foo
{
private function bar($howdy)
{
// $howdy is not used
}
}Source https://phpmd.org/rules/unusedcode.html#unusedformalparameter
Avoid excessively long variable names like $url_obfuscator_service. Keep variable name length under 20. Open
public function urlParameters(UrlObfuscatorService $url_obfuscator_service = null): array- Read upRead up
- Exclude checks
LongVariable
Since: 0.2
Detects when a field, formal or local variable is declared with a long name.
Example
class Something {
protected $reallyLongIntName = -3; // VIOLATION - Field
public static function main( array $interestingArgumentsList[] ) { // VIOLATION - Formal
$otherReallyLongName = -5; // VIOLATION - Local
for ($interestingIntIndex = 0; // VIOLATION - For
$interestingIntIndex < 10;
$interestingIntIndex++ ) {
}
}
}
