It seems like you code against a concrete implementation and not the interface Karma\ConfigurableProcessor as the method hydrate() does only exist in the following implementations of said interface: Karma\Hydrator.
Let’s take a look at an example:
interfaceUser{/** @return string */publicfunctiongetPassword();}classMyUserimplementsUser{publicfunctiongetPassword(){// return something}publicfunctiongetDisplayName(){// return some name.}}classAuthSystem{publicfunctionauthenticate(User$user){$this->logger->info(sprintf('Authenticating %s.',$user->getDisplayName()));// do something.}}
In the above example, the authenticate() method works fine as long as you just pass
instances of MyUser. However, if you now also want to pass a different implementation
of User which does not have a getDisplayName() method, the code will break.
classAuthSystem{publicfunctionauthenticate(User$user){if($userinstanceofMyUser){$this->logger->info(/** ... */);}// or alternativelyif(!$userinstanceofMyUser){thrownew\LogicException('$user must be an instance of MyUser, '.'other instances are not supported.');}}}
Note: PHP Analyzer uses reverse abstract interpretation to narrow down the types
inside the if block in such a case.
$processor of type object<Karma\ConfigurableProcessor> is not a sub-type of object<Karma\Hydrator>. It seems like you assume a concrete implementation of the interface Karma\ConfigurableProcessor to be always present.
This check looks for parameters that are defined as one type in their type
hint or doc comment but seem to be used as a narrower type, i.e an
implementation of an interface or a subclass.
Consider changing the type of the parameter or doing an instanceof check before assuming
your parameter is of the expected type.

This method seems to be duplicated in your project.
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.
