Usage

Report Classes

This package provides three custom PHPCS report classes under Bluecadet\PHPCS\Report\:

1. MarkdownGithub (Recommended for GitHub Actions)

Formats output specifically for GitHub Actions step summaries using KaTeX math syntax for inline colors. Results render beautifully in the PR checks tab.

./vendor/bin/phpcs \
  --report=Bluecadet\\PHPCS\\Report\\MarkdownGithub \
  --standard=Drupal \
  --extensions=php,module,inc,install,test,profile,theme,info,txt \
  ./web/modules/custom >> $GITHUB_STEP_SUMMARY

Output includes:

• Per-file violation tables with color-coded severity levels
• Summary table of error/warning counts across all files
• Total violation count
• Organized details section for easy scanning

2. Markdown (Generic Markdown)

Uses inline HTML color spans for generic Markdown renderers that support HTML.

./vendor/bin/phpcs \
  --report=Bluecadet\\PHPCS\\Report\\Markdown \
  --standard=Drupal \
  ./web/modules/custom

3. MarkdownBase (Base Class)

Base implementation for custom report extensions. Extend this class to create custom report formats.

use Bluecadet\PHPCS\Report\MarkdownBase;

class CustomReport extends MarkdownBase {
  // Your custom implementation
}

Local Usage (Non-GitHub Actions)

For local code style checking:

# Drupal standard check
./vendor/bin/phpcs --standard=Drupal ./web/modules/custom

# DrupalPractice standard check
./vendor/bin/phpcs --standard=DrupalPractice ./web/modules/custom

# With Markdown output
./vendor/bin/phpcs \
  --report=Bluecadet\\PHPCS\\Report\\Markdown \
  --standard=Drupal \
  ./web/modules/custom

GitHub Actions Integration

See bluecadet/web-gh-actions for the ensure-composer-package action, which manages this package's installation in CI workflows.

Example workflow step:

- name: Run PHPCS with Markdown report
  run: |
    ./vendor/bin/phpcs -s \
      --report=Bluecadet\\PHPCS\\Report\\MarkdownGithub \
      --standard=Drupal \
      --extensions=php,module,inc,install,test,profile,theme,info,txt \
      ./web/modules/custom >> $GITHUB_STEP_SUMMARY
