README

The shared PHP CS Fixer code style for Kirby's PHP repositories.

Usage

Add a .php-cs-fixer.dist.php that only describes what to look at:

<?php

return Kirby\PhpCs\Config::create()->setFinder(
	PhpCsFixer\Finder::create()
		->exclude('dependencies')
		->in(__DIR__)
);

and run it through cpx, which keeps the tool and the rules out of the project's vendor directory:

"scripts": {
	"fix": "cpx getkirby/php-cs:^0.2 fix"
}

Config::create(risky: false) leaves out the rules that can change behaviour.

Rule sets

Set	Contents
@Kirby/style	@PSR12 plus the Kirby rules
@Kirby/style:risky	the above plus rules that may change behaviour

Several rules deliberately override @PSR12: declare_equal_normalize, new_with_parentheses, ordered_class_elements and ordered_imports.

Four @PSR12 rules are switched off rather than overridden: statement_indentation, no_multiple_statements_per_line and no_blank_lines_after_phpdoc are replaced by the Kirby/ versions, blank_line_after_opening_tag is dropped along with linebreak_after_opening_tag.

Custom rules

Rule	Purpose
Kirby/class_block_separation	Blank line between trait imports, constants and each property block
Kirby/fully_qualified_strict_types	Shortens class names, but only in namespaced files, so templates keep working
Kirby/no_blank_lines_after_phpdoc	As upstream, but leaves the docblock a file opens with alone
Kirby/no_multiple_statements_per_line	As upstream, but only for files that are nothing but PHP
Kirby/phpdoc_no_redundant_types	Drops @param types that only repeat the native type hint, keeping the description
Kirby/statement_indentation	As upstream, but only for files that are nothing but PHP

Tests

composer install
composer test

• tests/fixtures holds one .in.php/.out.php pair per case for the custom fixers alone, picked by the file name prefix (block-, phpdoc-, shorten-).
• tests/integration holds pairs that go through the whole rule set, which is where the custom rules and the upstream ones have to agree.
