ptscs is a coding standard for PHP_CodeSniffer that follows the PSR-12 with additional strict rules. It is intended to help developers maintain consistency and readability in their codebase, and to encourage best practices.

Installation

You can install with composer

composer require --dev asispts/ptscs

Usage

Once installed, you can create a phpcs.xml.dist file to define your PHPCS configuration and then configure your text editor or workflow to lint or fix the codebase based on this configuration. Here is an example phpcs.xml.dist file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ruleset xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
  xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="vendor/squizlabs/php_codesniffer/phpcs.xsd">

  <arg name="colors"/>
  <arg name="parallel" value="8"/>
  <arg value="psv"/>
  <arg name="extensions" value="php"/>

  <file>src</file>
  <file>tests</file>

  <exclude-pattern>vendor</exclude-pattern>

  <rule ref="ptscs"/>
</ruleset>

You can use phpcs to validate your source code against this standard or phpcbf to automatically fix any violations.

To run phpcs, execute the following command:

vendor/bin/phpcs

To automatically fix any coding standard violations, execute the following command:

vendor/bin/phpcbf

Excluding Some Rules

You can exclude some rules by modifying the phpcs.xml.dist file. For example, if you want to exclude the rule that requires classes to be declared as either final or abstract in the src/Entity directory of a Symfony project, you can add the following to your phpcs.xml.dist file:

<rule ref="SlevomatCodingStandard.Classes.RequireAbstractOrFinal">
    <exclude-pattern>src/Entity</exclude-pattern>
</rule>

This will exclude the RequireAbstractOrFinal rule for the src/Entity directory. You can customize the rule and the directory as per your needs. By excluding some rules, you can customize the coding standard to better suit your project's requirements.

Notable coding standard

As mentioned, this coding standard use PSR-12 with some exceptions and additional strict rules. Here are some notable additional strict rules.

We exclude some PSR-12 rules to allow declare(strict_types=1) on the same line as PHP open tag.

<?php declare(strict_types=1)

declare(strict_types=1) is required in all PHP files.
snake_case is allowed in test method names

public function test_something(): void
{
}

All classes should be declared as either final or abstract

// Prohibited.
// Should be declared as either final or abstract
class foobar
{
}

Filenames must match the class names.

The complete set of rules can be seen in RULES.md file. These rules are intended to promote cleaner, more readable, and more maintainable code.
