README

This package provides PHPCS rule set for coding standards in Pixel Federation. It should be included into each project maintained by Pixel Federation that uses PHP Code Sniffer PHPCS.

Migration from v4 to v4.1.0

Generic ruleset was removed. Now there are only rulesets for specific PHP versions.

Replace (in your ruleset) reference to file vendor/pixelfederation/coding-standards/phpcs.ruleset.xml with vendor/pixelfederation/coding-standards/phpcs.ruleset.84.xml for PHP 8.4.

How to use

Install composer dependencies

composer require --dev pixelfederation/coding-standards:^5.0

Supported versions

For each php version there are 2 versions of the ruleset. One for DDD projects and one for Non-DDD projects.

For example for PHP 8.4:

vendor/pixelfederation/coding-standards/phpcs.ruleset.84.xml
OR
vendor/pixelfederation/coding-standards/phpcs.ruleset.84.non-ddd.xml

Ruleset creation

Create a file named phpcs.ruleset.xml in the root folder of your project with the following content:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<ruleset name="PixelFederation">
  <description>PixelFederation rule set.</description>
    
  <exclude-pattern>tests/</exclude-pattern>

  <rule ref="vendor/pixelfederation/coding-standards/phpcs.ruleset.84.xml"> <!-- Insert version for your php version -->
    <!-- You can exclude some rules here -->
    <exclude name="SlevomatCodingStandard.Files.FunctionLength"/> 
  </rule>
</ruleset>

Running checks

In your project directory run this command:

vendor/bin/phpcs --standard=phpcs.ruleset.xml src

Automatically fixing errors

In your project directory run this command:

vendor/bin/phpcbf --standard=phpcs.ruleset.xml src

GrumPHP

Tasks

Installation

# grumphp.yml
grumphp:
    extensions:
        - PixelFederation\CodingStandards\GrumPHP\ExtensionLoader

Doctrine ORM Mapping Validation

# grumphp.yml
grumphp:
    tasks:
        doctrine_schema_validate:
            skip_mapping: false
            skip_sync: false
            skip_property_types: false
            em: default
            triggered_by: ['php', 'xml', 'yml']

For multiple entity managers you can specify the entity manager to be used:

# grumphp.yml
grumphp:
    tasks:
        doctrine_schema_validate_application:
            em: application
            metadata:
                task: doctrine_schema_validate
        doctrine_schema_validate_reporting:
            em: reporting
            metadata:
                task: doctrine_schema_validate

console_path

Default: 'bin/console'

With this parameter you can set the path of the console to be used.

skip_mapping

Default: false

With this parameter you can skip the mapping validation check.

skip_sync

Default: false

With this parameter you can skip checking if the mapping is in sync with the database.

triggered_by

Default: [php, xml, yml]

This is a list of extensions that should trigger the Doctrine task.

em

Default: null

Require doctrine/orm >= 3.0. Specify the entity manager to be used. If not set, the default entity manager will be used.

skip_property_types

Default: null

Require doctrine/orm >= 3.0. With this parameter you can skip checking if property types match the Doctrine types.

Composer Install Check

# grumphp.yml
grumphp:
    tasks:
        composer_install_check:
            script: './vendor/pixelfederation/coding-standards/bin/composer_install_check.sh',
            ignore_patterns: []
            triggered_by: ['php', 'yml', 'yaml', 'xml']
            whitelist_patterns: []
            metadata:
                priority: 900

script

Default: './bin/composer_install_check.sh'

Path to check script.

ignore_patterns

Default: []

This is a list of patterns that will be ignored by phpcs. With this option you can skip files like tests. Leave this option blank to run phpcs for every php file.

triggered_by

Default: ['php', 'yml', 'yaml', 'xml']

This is a list of extensions to be sniffed.

whitelist_patterns

Default: []

This is a list of regex patterns that will filter files to validate. With this option you can skip files like tests. This option is used in relation with the parameter triggered_by.

PhpMd Extended

Extends the default PhpMd task and splits the files into smaller chunks to prevent the Argument list too long error.

Composer

composer require --dev phpmd/phpmd

Config

The task lives under the phpmd_extended namespace and has following configurable parameters:

# grumphp.yml
grumphp:
    tasks:
        phpmd_extended:
            whitelist_patterns: []
            exclude: []
            report_format: text
            ruleset: ['cleancode', 'codesize', 'naming']
            triggered_by: ['php']
            chunks_size: 1000

whitelist_patterns

Default: []

This is a list of regex patterns that will filter files to validate. With this option you can skip files like tests. This option is used in relation with the parameter triggered_by. For example: whitelist files in src/FolderA/ and src/FolderB/ you can use

whitelist_patterns:
    - /^src\/FolderA\/(.*)/
    - /^src\/FolderB\/(.*)/

exclude

Default: []

This is a list of patterns that will be ignored by phpmd. With this option you can skip directories like tests. Leave this option blank to run phpmd for every php file.

report_format

Default: text

This sets the output renderer of phpmd. Available formats: ansi, text.

ruleset

Default: [cleancode,codesize,naming]

With this parameter you will be able to configure the rule/rulesets you want to use. You can use the standard sets provided by PhpMd or you can configure your own xml configuration as described in the PhpMd Documentation

The full list of rules/rulesets can be found at PhpMd Rules

triggered_by

Default: [php]

This is a list of extensions to be sniffed.

chunk_size

Default: 1000

This parameter defines how many files will be checked in one execution of phpmd. This can help with performance on large codebases.
