although this URL can do what I want
[http://phptohaxe.haqteam.com/code.php](http://phptohaxe.haqteam.com/code.php)
but it’s not batch tool,I still need one by one to convert.

Here are the sources of that lib: [https://bitbucket.org/yar3333/phptohaxe/src/default/](https://bitbucket.org/yar3333/phptohaxe/src/default/)
You can try and turn it into batch tool.
Currently there is not automatic extern generator for php target afaik. But I’m working on one and my plan is to finish it by the end of the summer.

I’m not certain of correctness - it’s likely the externs are very broken, but I’m sure it’s an improvement over nothing: I’ve pushed a PR to @RealyUniqueName’s peg repo that moves it towards creating some initial attempts at extern file generation for PHP code.

I’ve merged the PR, thank you!
I’m working on PEG in a [branch](https://github.com/RealyUniqueName/peg/commits/feature/generation) to get it to the first release. As you can see by the commit history, I don’t have much time for it nowadays 🙂 But it’s not abandoned.
