MEOM PHPCS ruleset

This is a standalone composer package for Custom WPCS and PHPCompatibilityWP rulesets.

Requirements

• PHP 7+.
• Composer for managing PHP dependencies.

Installation

Use Composer to install the package.

composer require --dev meom/phpcs-composer:dev-main

Usage

Lint your PHP files with the following command:

./vendor/bin/phpcs .

Or give path to lint theme folder, for example:

./vendor/bin/phpcs htdocs/wp-content/themes/theme-name

Note that by default warning are not displayed. You can change that with --severity flag like this:

./vendor/bin/phpcs --severity=1 htdocs/wp-content/themes/theme-name

Fixing issues using PHPCBF command

Some of the issue can be fixed using phpcbf command:

./vendor/bin/phpcbf .

Or give path to fix theme folder, for example:

./vendor/bin/phpcbf htdocs/wp-content/themes/theme-name

Note that by default warnings are not fixed. You can fix warnings also with --severity flag like this:

./vendor/bin/phpcbf --severity=1 htdocs/wp-content/themes/theme-name

IDE Integration

Some IDE integrations of PHPCS fail to register the MEOM-default ruleset. In order to rectify this, place .phpcs.xml.dist at your project root:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<ruleset name="Project Rules">
    <rule ref="MEOM-default" />
</ruleset>

Note this is already added in Kala Stack.

VS Code

If you don't have PHP codesniffer installed globally, you might need to

1. Create folder .vscode (in the root of the project).
2. Add file settings.json in the folder.
3. Add the following content in the file.

{
    "phpcs.executablePath": "./vendor/bin/phpcs"
}

P.S. Windows is looking for file ./vendor/bin/phpcs.bat. If that's not generated automatically in ./vendor/bin/ for some reason, test path ./vendor/squizlabs/php_codesniffer/bin/phpcs.

.bat files should be in that folder.
