📚 Documentation Impact Analyzer

An AI-powered tool that analyzes merge requests and automatically determines if code changes require user documentation updates. Built with Symfony 7.3 and powered by OpenAI's GPT models, it helps maintain documentation quality by flagging changes that impact user-facing features, APIs, or configurations.

✨ Features

🤖 Intelligent Analysis

• AI-Powered Detection: Uses Claude 3.5 Sonnet to analyze code changes and determine documentation impact
• File-Type Awareness: Intelligent categorization of changed files (controllers, models, config, templates, etc.)
• Context-Aware Prompts: Tailored analysis based on the type of changes detected
• Multi-Level Impact: Categorizes changes from NONE to CRITICAL impact levels

🔗 Git Provider Integration

• GitHub Support: Complete webhook integration with signature validation
• GitLab Support: Full API integration with merge request handling
• Secure Webhooks: HMAC signature validation for both platforms
• Real-time Processing: Instant analysis when merge requests are created or updated

💬 Professional Comments

• Beautiful Formatting: Rich markdown comments with emojis and structured sections
• Actionable Suggestions: Specific, practical documentation recommendations
• Code Examples: Automatic formatting of code snippets, API endpoints, and configuration
• Impact Warnings: Clear indicators for high-impact changes requiring immediate attention

🧪 Comprehensive Testing

• 30+ Tests: Full test coverage with unit, integration, and end-to-end tests
• 94+ Assertions: Robust validation of all functionality
• Mock AI Responses: Consistent testing without API dependencies
• Webhook Testing: Complete validation of webhook processing

🚀 Quick Start

Prerequisites

• PHP 8.3 or higher
• Composer
• PostgreSQL 17
• Anthropic API key
• Git provider tokens (GitHub/GitLab)

Installation

1. Clone the repository

   git clone https://github.com/upsun/demo-symfony-mr-docs-impact.git
   cd demo-symfony-mr-docs-impact

2. Install dependencies

   composer install

3. Configure environment

   cp .env.example .env

   Edit .env with your configuration:

   # Database
   DATABASE_URL="postgresql://user:pass@127.0.0.1:5432/mr_docs_impact"
   
   # Git Providers
   GITHUB_TOKEN=your-github-token
   GITHUB_WEBHOOK_SECRET=your-webhook-secret
   GITLAB_TOKEN=your-gitlab-token
   GITLAB_WEBHOOK_SECRET=your-webhook-secret
   
   # AI Configuration
   ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=your-anthropic-api-key

4. Set up database

   # Using Docker
   docker-compose up -d database
   
   # Or with local PostgreSQL
   createdb mr_docs_impact

5. Start the server

   symfony local:server:start --allow-all-ip

Docker Setup

Use Docker Compose for a complete development environment:

docker-compose up -d

This starts:

• PostgreSQL 17 database
• PHP 8.3 application server
• All necessary dependencies

🔧 Configuration

Webhook Setup

GitHub

1. Go to your repository settings → Webhooks
2. Add webhook URL: https://your-domain.com/webhook/github
3. Content type: application/json
4. Events: Pull requests
5. Secret: Set your GITHUB_WEBHOOK_SECRET

GitLab

1. Go to your project settings → Webhooks
2. Add webhook URL: https://your-domain.com/webhook/gitlab
3. Trigger: Merge request events
4. Secret token: Set your GITLAB_WEBHOOK_SECRET

AI Configuration

The system uses Anthropic's Claude 3.5 Sonnet model for intelligent analysis. You can customize:

# config/packages/ai.yaml
ai:
    platform:
        anthropic:
            api_key: '%env(ANTHROPIC_API_KEY)%'

📊 How It Works

1. Webhook Reception

When a merge request is created or updated, the system receives a webhook from your Git provider.

2. Change Analysis

The AI analyzer examines:

• File Types: Controllers, models, configuration, templates, etc.
• Change Patterns: New features, API modifications, breaking changes
• Context: Commit messages, branch names, file locations
• Diff Content: Actual code changes and their implications

3. Impact Assessment

Changes are categorized into impact levels:

Level	Description	Action
🚨 CRITICAL	Breaking changes requiring immediate action	Blocks merge until documented
🔴 HIGH	New features or significant API changes	Prioritize documentation
🟠 MEDIUM	Enhancements or configuration changes	Document when convenient
🟡 LOW	Minor improvements or bug fixes	Optional documentation
✅ NONE	Internal changes with no user impact	No documentation needed

4. Comment Generation

Professional comments are posted to the merge request with:

• Clear impact assessment
• Specific affected documentation areas
• Actionable suggestions with examples
• Links to documentation guidelines
