how read spesific annotations name? example im only want to read @Assert annotation n skip all

how read spesific annotations name? example im only want to read @Assert annotation n skip all

Just do this :

$reader = new AnnotationReader();          
$reflector = new \ReflectionClass(YourClass::class);        
 // Get Annotation on the Class       
$infos = $reader->getClassAnnotation($reflector, Assert::class);

// Get annotation on property
$properties = $reflector->getProperties();
foreach ($properties as $property) {                              
$infos[] = $reader->getPropertyAnnotation($property,Assert::class)                                                   
}                                                        

How can i read any annotation in my project without tell the class name or methode name ?

I don’t think it’s possible from PHP reflection API.
