README

This publication describes a standard suitable for all PHP packages regarding Composer script names.

Please see https://github.com/php-pds/composer-script-names_research for background information.

The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this publication are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119.

Summary

Script names in the composer.json file MUST be lower-case, and MUST use dashes as word separators.

The composer.json file MUST use these script names for these purposes:

Naming Convention

Script names in the composer.json file MUST be lower-case, and MUST use dashes as word separators.

Examples of compliant script names:

  • foo
  • foo-bar
  • foo-bar-baz

Examples of non-compliant script names:

  • Foo
  • foo:bar
  • foo_bar:Baz

Script Names

test

If the composer.json file defines a script to run tests using a default configuration, it MUST be named test.

This publication does not otherwise define the test tooling.

test-coverage

If the composer.json file defines a script to run tests using a default configuration, with coverage generation, it MUST be named test-coverage.

This publication does not otherwise define the test coverage tooling.

test-*

If the composer.json file defines a script to run tests using alternative configurations or approaches, it MUST use the prefix test- with a descriptive suffix.

Examples:

  • test-behavior
  • test-filter
  • test-integation
  • test-system

Aside from test-coverage, this publication does not otherwise define the meaning of any test-* descriptive suffix.

cs-fix

If the composer.json file defines a script to run a coding style fixer and/or code linter using a default configuration, it MUST be named cs-fix.

This publication does not otherwise define the style fixer or code linter tooling.

analyse or analyze

If the composer.json file defines a script to run static analysis using a default configuration, it MUST be named EITHER analyse OR analyze.

N.b.: The naming alternatives reflect differences in typical usage by American and British English speakers.

This publication does not otherwise define the static analysis tooling.

check

If the composer.json file defines a script to run multiple quality-assurance scripts or commands in sequence, it MUST be named check.

This publication does not otherwise define the specific scripts or commands, nor the order in which they are to run.
