PhpCodeFixer

PhpCodeFixer finds deprecated functions, wrong functions usage, variables, ini directives and restricted identifiers in your php code. It literally helps you fix code that can fail after migration to PHP 7.

Usage

To scan your files or folder launch phpcf and pass file or directory names.

Usage: phpcf [--target VERSION] [--max-size SIZE] FILES...

Options:
  -t, --target VERSION  target php version [default: 7.2]
  -s, --max-size SIZE   sets max size of php file. If size of file is above this value, file will be skipped [default: 1mb]

By providing additional parameter --target you can specify version of PHP to perform less checks.

| Option | Action | |--------------|---------------------------------------------| | --target 7.2 | By default. Use all deprecations up to 7.2. | | --target 7.1 | Use all deprecations from 5.3 to 7.1. | | --target 7.0 | Use all deprecations from 5.3 to 7.0. | | --target 5.6 | Use all deprecations from 5.3 to 5.6. | | --target 5.5 | Use all deprecations from 5.3 to 5.5. | | --target 5.4 | Use all deprecations from 5.3 to 5.4. | | --target 5.3 | Use deprecations from 5.3 only. |

Replace Suggestions:
1. Don't use function mcrypt_generic_end. Instead use mcrypt_generic_deinit
2. Don't use function read_exif_data. Instead use exif_read_data
3. Don't use ini mbstring.http_output. Instead use default_charset
4. Don't use variable $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA. Instead use php://input
5. Don't use constant INTL_IDNA_VARIANT_2003. Instead use INTL_IDNA_VARIANT_UTS46

Installation

Phar

The recommended way to install _phpcf_ is as phar-package.

1. Just download a phar from releases page
2. Make it executable and put it in one of folders listed in your $PATH: `sh chmod +x phpcf.phar sudo mv phpcf.phar /usr/local/bin/phpcf `

Further I will use commands for PhpCodeFixer installed as phar or globally with composer, but if you've installed it locally with composer, just replace phpcf command with vendor/bin/phpcf.

Composer

Another way to install _phpcf_ is via composer.

1. If you do not have composer installed, download the composer.phar executable or use the installer.

   `sh $ curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php `

2. Run php composer.phar require wapmorgan/php-code-fixer or add requirement in composer.json.

   `json { "require": { "wapmorgan/php-code-fixer": "*" } } `

3. Run php composer.phar update

Global installation

You can get more profit when _phpcf_ installed globally.

1. If you do not have composer installed, look previous section and install composer on your server.
2. Run php composer.phar global require wapmorgan/php-code-fixer

If phpcf installed globally, you can use phpcf command inside any directory.
