Features

Add Doctrine Instantiator component

Introduced the Doctrine Instantiator library, providing an \Instantiator\ class and \InstantiatorInterface\ that allow for the creation of object instances without invoking their constructors. The package includes a dedicated exception hierarchy (\ExceptionInterface\, \InvalidArgumentException\, \UnexpectedValueException\) to handle invalid states such as abstract classes, enums, or non-existent classes during instantiation.

Initial project scaffolding and configuration

The repository was initialized with essential project files: a README, CONTRIBUTING guide, and MIT LICENSE. Configuration files for PHPStan, PHPUnit, PHPMD, PHPCS, and PHPBench were added to establish the development and testing environment. Additionally, .gitignore and .gitattributes were created to manage repository exports and ignored files, while .doctrine-project.json was added to define versioning metadata for the Instantiator project.

Test coverage

Added performance benchmarks and unit tests for the Instantiator; Added test assets for edge cases; Added test coverage for Instantiator exception classes.

How this codebase got here

This is the PUBLIC form of this artifact. Findings are listed in full, but the details of SECURITY findings — which rule fired, in which file, on which line, and how to fix it — are deliberately withheld, and any secret-scanner results are excluded entirely. Where detail is absent here it was REMOVED FOR PUBLICATION; it is not missing from the analysis. The complete artifact is available from the repository owner.

doctrine/instantiator was measured the same way every project in this corpus was: the same rubric, at a pinned commit, with the result published in full. Point a surveyor at a repository you know and see whether you agree with it.

About this page

The score is its most recent published measurement, taken on 26 September 2026 at a pinned commit. It is not a live figure and does not change until the project is measured again.
Measured at commit cbb879d6eea7ce605d95f4c455679df73ee682ea — the exact code this score is about.
Scored under rubric-2026.09.15 — the same rubric and the same method as every other entry in this index.
