Documentation

Keboola Coding Standard

Versioning

  • patch versions may only weaken the checks if a bug in a sniff is found
  • minor versions may only update underlying coding standards with bugfixes
  • major versions may introduce new sniffs, thus causing previously good builds to fail

So you should be usually fine with composer's default ^major.minor

Installation

  • install via composer
composer require --dev keboola/coding-standard
  • copy example/phpcs.xml to your project root directory.
  • now you can check your src and tests directory using
vendor/bin/phpcs src tests
  • add phpcs script to composer.json
{
...
    "scripts": {
        "phpcs": "phpcs -n --extensions=php ."
    }
}

Usage

composer phpcs

Using standard on legacy projects

If fixing the violations is too complex, you can exclude the respective sniffs.

First you need to know which sniff is causing the violation.

composer phpcs -- -s

This will dump the sniff name along with the violation.

phpcs -n --extensions=php . "-s"

FILE: W:\keboola\http-extractor\src\Config.php
----------------------------------------------------------------------
FOUND 1 ERROR AFFECTING 1 LINE
----------------------------------------------------------------------
 11 | ERROR | Method \Keboola\HttpExtractor\Config::getBaseUrl() does not
    |       | have return type hint nor @return annotation for its return
    |       | value.
    |       | (SlevomatCodingStandard.TypeHints.TypeHintDeclaration.MissingReturnTypeHint)
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Then add the sniff to excludes in your phpcs.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<ruleset name="Custom">
    <rule ref="vendor/keboola/coding-standard/ruleset.xml">
		<exclude name="SlevomatCodingStandard.TypeHints.TypeHintDeclaration.MissingReturnTypeHint" />
	</rule>
</ruleset>

Repeat until there are no violations.

You may take note of fixable violations and separate them visually in the file, possibly with <!-- Fixable violations below -->. That way anyone can remove one exclusion at a time, let phpcbf fix the violation, review the result and submit a PR with a fix. This will improve the chances of fixing the violations in the future.
