README

This is a Laravel 4/5 package that hooks up SquizLabs CodeSniffer 2 into Laravel-based apps. It can also be used manually, so read on.

Detect violations of a defined coding standard. It helps your code remain clean and consistent. Available options are: PSR2, PSR1, Zend, PEAR, Squiz, PHPCS and ChefsPlate.

Setup

Require this package in composer:

$ composer require chefsplate/sniffer-rules

Laravel 4/5

In your config/app.php add ChefsPlate\SnifferRules\ServiceProvider:class to $providers array:

'providers' => [
    ...

    ChefsPlate\SnifferRules\ServiceProvider::class,

    ...
],

Laravel 5: Publish the configuration file

$ php artisan vendor:publish

Laravel 4: Manually create config

Copy config to app/config/sniffer-rules.php

Edit configuration file config/sniffer-rules.php to tweak the sniffer behavior.

Manual

Install our Standard by configuring PHP_CodeSniffer to look for it.

$ php ./vendor/bin/phpcs --config-set installed_paths ./vendor/chefsplate/src/ChefsPlate/SnifferRules/Standard/

Usage

Laravel

$ php artisan sniff

To run the sniffer in a CI environment, the -n option should be set to remove interaction:

$ php artisan sniff -n

Manual

$ php ./vendor/bin/phpcs --standard=ChefsPlate path/to/code

It's encouraged to add a Makefile to your project that makes it trivial for other developers. Use Makefile in this directory and adjust as needed to fit your project requirements.
