README

CLI for checking and fixing service ordering in Symfony services: YAML files.

What it does

symfony-service-sorter helps keep Symfony service definitions in a consistent order. It provides:

  • check to report out-of-order services
  • fix to rewrite a file into the expected order

Installation

Install it as a development dependency:

composer require --dev chrisjenkinson/symfony-service-sorter

The binary is available at vendor/bin/sort-services.

Usage

Run the binary with a subcommand and one or more target YAML files:

vendor/bin/sort-services <command> <path-to-yaml-file>...

Check

vendor/bin/sort-services check config/services.yaml

check exits successfully when services are already in order and reports ordering problems otherwise.

You can also check more than one file in one invocation:

vendor/bin/sort-services check config/services.yaml config/services_test.yaml

Fix

vendor/bin/sort-services fix config/services.yaml

fix rewrites files in place only when sorting changes their contents. Files that are already sorted are reported as Unchanged.

You can also fix more than one file in one invocation:

vendor/bin/sort-services fix config/services.yaml config/services_test.yaml

To print the sorted output instead, use:

vendor/bin/sort-services fix config/services.yaml --stdout

--stdout only supports a single file.

Compatibility

  • PHP ^8.2
  • Symfony Console ^6.0 || ^7.0 || ^8.0

Development

Useful local verification commands:

vendor/bin/phpunit
vendor/bin/ecs check
vendor/bin/phpstan analyse
vendor/bin/infection --threads=max --min-msi=85 --min-covered-msi=85
