The class Controller has 14 public methods. Consider refactoring Controller to keep number of public methods under 10. Open
class Controller extends Component implements ViewContextInterface
{
/**
* @event ActionEvent an event raised right before executing a controller action.
* You may set [[ActionEvent::isValid]] to be false to cancel the action execution.

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

The class Controller has an overall complexity of 62 which is very high. The configured complexity threshold is 50. Open
class Controller extends Component implements ViewContextInterface
{
/**
* @event ActionEvent an event raised right before executing a controller action.
* You may set [[ActionEvent::isValid]] to be false to cancel the action execution.

Cognitive Complexity
Cognitive Complexity is a measure of how difficult a unit of code is to intuitively understand. Unlike Cyclomatic Complexity, which determines how difficult your code will be to test, Cognitive Complexity tells you how difficult your code will be to read and comprehend.
A method's cognitive complexity is based on a few simple rules:
- Code is not considered more complex when it uses shorthand that the language provides for collapsing multiple statements into one
- Code is considered more complex for each "break in the linear flow of the code"
- Code is considered more complex when "flow breaking structures are nested"

The method findLayoutFile() has an NPath complexity of 396. The configured NPath complexity threshold is 200. Open

NPathComplexity
Since: 0.1
The NPath complexity of a method is the number of acyclic execution paths through that method. A threshold of 200 is generally considered the point where measures should be taken to reduce complexity.
Example
class Foo {
function bar() {
// lots of complicated code
}
}

The method findLayoutFile() has a Cyclomatic Complexity of 13. The configured cyclomatic complexity threshold is 10. Open

CyclomaticComplexity
Since: 0.1
Complexity is determined by the number of decision points in a method plus one for the method entry. The decision points are 'if', 'while', 'for', and 'case labels'. Generally, 1-4 is low complexity, 5-7 indicates moderate complexity, 8-10 is high complexity, and 11+ is very high complexity.
Example
// Cyclomatic Complexity = 11
class Foo {
1 public function example() {
2 if ($a == $b) {
3 if ($a1 == $b1) {
fiddle();
4 } elseif ($a2 == $b2) {
fiddle();
} else {
fiddle();
}
5 } elseif ($c == $d) {
6 while ($c == $d) {
fiddle();
}
7 } elseif ($e == $f) {
8 for ($n = 0; $n < $h; $n++) {
fiddle();
}
} else {
switch ($z) {
9 case 1:
fiddle();
break;
10 case 2:
fiddle();
break;
11 case 3:
fiddle();
break;
default:

break;

A class with too many dependencies has negative impacts on several quality aspects of a class. This includes quality criteria like stability, maintainability and understandability

Avoid assigning values to variables in if clauses and the like (line '569', column '53'). Open

IfStatementAssignment
Since: 2.7.0
Assignments in if clauses and the like are considered a code smell. Assignments in PHP return the right operand as their result. In many cases, this is an expected behavior, but can lead to many difficult to spot bugs, especially when the right operand could result in zero, null or an empty string and the like.
Example
class Foo
{
public function bar($flag)
{
if ($foo = 'bar') { // possible typo
// ...
}
if ($baz = 0) { // always false
// ...
}
}
