phpcs

Tokenize PHP, JavaScript and CSS files to detect violations of a defined set of coding standards. More information: https://github.com/squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer.

• Sniff the specified directory for issues (defaults to the PEAR standard):

phpcs {{path/to/directory}}

• Display a list of installed coding standards:

phpcs -i

• Specify a coding standard to validate against:

phpcs {{path/to/directory}} --standard {{standard}}

• Specify comma-separated file extensions to include when sniffing:

phpcs {{path/to/directory}} --extensions {{file_extension1,file_extension2,...}}

• Specify the format of the output report (e.g. full, xml, json, summary):

phpcs {{path/to/directory}} --report {{format}}

• Set configuration variables to be used during the process:

phpcs {{path/to/directory}} --config-set {{key}} {{value}}

• A comma-separated list of files to load before processing:

phpcs {{path/to/directory}} --bootstrap {{path/to/file1,path/to/file2,...}}

• Don’t recurse into subdirectories:

phpcs {{path/to/directory}} -l
