Duplicate code is one of the most pungent code smells. A rule that is often used is to re-structure code once it is duplicated in three or more places.
Common duplication problems, and corresponding solutions are:
| 1 | <?php |
||
| 5 | View Code Duplication | class Trim implements ValidateRuleInterface |
|
|
|
|||
| 6 | { |
||
| 7 | /** @var string */ |
||
| 8 | protected $chars; |
||
| 9 | |||
| 10 | /** |
||
| 11 | * @param string $chars The characters to strip. |
||
| 12 | */ |
||
| 13 | 15 | public function __construct(string $chars = " \t\n\r\0\x0B") |
|
| 17 | |||
| 18 | /** |
||
| 19 | * Validates that a value is already trimmed. |
||
| 20 | * |
||
| 21 | * @param object $subject The subject to be filtered. |
||
| 22 | * @param string $field The subject field name. |
||
| 23 | * |
||
| 24 | * @return bool True if valid, false if not. |
||
| 25 | */ |
||
| 26 | 15 | public function __invoke($subject, string $field): bool |
|
| 35 | } |

Duplicated code is one of the most pungent code smells. If you need to duplicate the same code in three or more different places, we strongly encourage you to look into extracting the code into a single class or operation.
