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 |
||
7 | View Code Duplication | class CreateFightTable extends Migration |
|
8 | { |
||
9 | /** |
||
10 | * Run the migrations. |
||
11 | * |
||
12 | * @return void |
||
13 | */ |
||
14 | public function up() |
||
34 | |||
35 | /** |
||
36 | * Reverse the migrations. |
||
37 | * |
||
38 | * @return void |
||
39 | */ |
||
40 | public function down() |
||
46 | } |
||
47 |
You can fix this by adding a namespace to your class:
When choosing a vendor namespace, try to pick something that is not too generic to avoid conflicts with other libraries.
