\PhpOffice\PhpProject\Autoloader::register();

Getting started

The following is a basic usage example of the PHPProject library.

require_once 'src/PhpProject/Autoloader.php';

\PhpOffice\PhpProject\Autoloader::register();

$objPHPProject = new PhpProject();$objPHPProject = new PhpProject();

// Create resource

$objRes1 = $objPHPProject->createResource();

$objRes1->setTitle('UserBoy');

// Create a task

$objTask1 = $objPHPProject->createTask();

$objTask1->setName('Start of the project');

$objTask1->setStartDate('02-01-2012');

$objTask1->setEndDate('03-01-2012');

$objTask1->setProgress(0.5);

$objTask1->addResource($objRes1);

$oWriterGAN = IOFactory::createWriter($objPHPPowerPoint, 'GanttProject');
