Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.

Prerequisites

• PHP >=5.6

As this is a private repo, when using composer to require this package - it is assumed your SSH key has already been added to GitHub to authenticate.

Installing

Start by adding this repo to your projects composer.json file:

{
  "repositories": [
    {
        "type": "vcs",
        "url":  "git@github.com:gatenbysanderson/code-sniffer.git",
        "no-api": true
    }
  ]
}

You can then simply require the package as with any other:

$ composer require --dev gatenbysanderson/code-sniffer

Running the Sniffer

To run the sniffer, you can either call the command in full:

$ vendor/bin/phpcs --standard=vendor/gatenbysanderson/code-sniffer/src/phpcs.xml directory1 [directory2 ...]

Or create a composer script to make life easier:

{
  "scripts": {
    "gscs": "phpcs --standard=vendor/gatenbysanderson/code-sniffer/src/phpcs.xml directory1 [directory2 ...]"
  }
}

This allows you to then run:

$ composer gscs

Built With

• PHP_CodeSniffer - The code sniffer
