3.10.2 - 2024-07-22

Changed

Fixed

  • Fixed bug #513 : Generic.Functions.FunctionCallArgumentSpacing did not ignore the body of a match expressions passed as a function argument, which could lead to false positives.
  • Fixed bug #533 : Generic.WhiteSpace.DisallowTabIndent: tab indentation for heredoc/nowdoc closers will no longer be auto-fixed to prevent parse errors. The issue will still be reported.
    • The error code for heredoc/nowdoc indentation using tabs has been made more specific - TabsUsedHeredocCloser - to allow for selectively excluding the indentation check for heredoc/nowdoc closers.
    • Thanks to Juliette Reinders Folmer for the patch
  • Fixed bug #534 : Generic.WhiteSpace.DisallowSpaceIndent did not report on space indentation for PHP 7.3 flexible heredoc/nowdoc closers.
    • Closers using space indentation will be reported with a dedicated error code: SpacesUsedHeredocCloser.
    • Thanks to Juliette Reinders Folmer for the patch
  • Fixed bug #537 : Squiz.PHP.DisallowMultipleAssignments false positive for list assignments at the start of a new PHP block after an embedded PHP statement.
  • Fixed bug #551 : Squiz.PHP.DisallowMultipleAssignments prevent false positive for function parameters during live coding.
  • Fixed bug #554 : Generic.CodeAnalysis.UselessOverridingMethod edge case false negative when the call to the parent method would end on a PHP close tag.
  • Fixed bug #555 : Squiz.Classes.SelfMemberReference edge case false negative when the namespace declaration would end on a PHP close tag.

3.10.1 - 2024-05-22

Added

  • Documentation for the following sniffs:
    • Generic.Commenting.DocComment
    • Thanks to Rodrigo Primo for the patch.

Changed

  • The following have received efficiency improvements:
  • Various housekeeping, including improvements to the tests and documentation.

Fixed

  • Fixed bug #110, #437, #475: File::findStartOfStatement(): the start of statement/expression determination for tokens in parentheses/short array brackets/others scopes, nested within match expressions, was incorrect in most cases.
    The trickle down effect of the bug fixes made to the File::findStartOfStatement() method, is that the Generic.WhiteSpace.ScopeIndent and the PEAR.WhiteSpace.ScopeIndent sniffs should now be able to correctly determine and fix the indent for match expressions containing nested expressions.
    These fixes also fix an issue with the Squiz.Arrays.ArrayDeclaration sniff and possibly other, unreported bugs.
  • Fixed bug #504: The tokenizer could inadvertently mistake the last parameter in a function call using named arguments for a DNF type.
  • Fixed bug #508: Tokenizer/PHP: extra hardening against handling parse errors in the type handling layer.

3.9.2 - 2024-04-24

Changed

  • The Generic.ControlStructures.DisallowYodaConditions sniff no longer listens for the null coalesce operator. #458
  • Various housekeeping, including improvements to the tests and documentation.

Fixed

  • Fixed bug #381 : Squiz.Commenting.ClosingDeclarationComment could throw the wrong error when the close brace being examined is at the very end of a file.
  • Fixed bug #385 : Generic.CodeAnalysis.JumbledIncrementer improved handling of parse errors/live coding.
  • Fixed bug #394 : Generic.Functions.CallTimePassByReference was not flagging call-time pass-by-reference in anonymous class instantiations
  • Fixed bug #420 : PEAR.Functions.FunctionDeclaration could run into a blocking PHP notice while fixing code containing a parse error.
  • Fixed bug #421 : File::getMethodProperties() small performance improvement & more defensive coding.
  • Fixed bug #423 : PEAR.WhiteSpace.ScopeClosingBrace would have a fixer conflict with itself when a close tag was preceded by non-empty inline HTML.
  • Fixed bug #424 : PSR2.Classes.ClassDeclaration using namespace relative interface names in the extends/implements part of a class declaration would lead to a fixer conflict.
  • Fixed bug #427 : Squiz.Operators.OperatorSpacing would have a fixer conflict with itself when an operator was preceeded by a new line and the previous line ended in a comment.
  • Fixed bug #430 : Squiz.ControlStructures.ForLoopDeclaration: fixed potential undefined array index notice
  • Fixed bug #431 : PSR2.Classes.ClassDeclaration will no longer try to auto-fix multi-line interface implements statements if these are interlaced with comments on their own line. This prevents a potential fixer conflict.
  • Fixed bug #453 : Arrow function tokenization was broken when the return type was a stand-alone true or false; or contained true or false as part of a union type.

Other

  • ESLint 9.0 has been released and changes the supported configuration file format.
    The (deprecated) Generic.Debug.ESLint sniff only supports the "old" configuration file formats and when using the sniff to run ESLint, the ESLINT_USE_FLAT_CONFIG=false environment variable will need to be set when using ESLint >= 9.0.
    For more information, see #436.

Added

  • Tokenizer support for PHP 8.3 typed class constants. #321
    • Additionally, the following sniffs have been updated to support typed class constants:
      • Generic.NamingConventions.UpperCaseConstantName #332
      • Generic.PHP.LowerCaseConstant #330
      • Generic.PHP.LowerCaseType #331
    • Thanks to Juliette Reinders Folmer for the patches

      When running in -q (quiet) mode, the deprecation notices will be hidden.
    • Deprecated sniffs will still run and using them will have no impact on the exit code for a scan.
    • In ruleset "explain"-mode (-e) an asterix * will show next to deprecated sniffs.
    • Sniff maintainers are advised to read through the PR description for full details on how to use this feature for their own (deprecated) sniffs.
    • Thanks to Juliette Reinders Folmer for the patch
  • New Generic.CodeAnalysis.RequireExplicitBooleanOperatorPrecedence sniff. #197
    • Forbid mixing different binary boolean operators within a single expression without making precedence clear using parentheses
    • Thanks to Tim Düsterhus for the contribution
  • Squiz.PHP.EmbeddedPhp : the sniff will now also examine the formatting of embedded PHP statements using short open echo tags. #27

    • Thanks to Juliette Reinders Folmer for the patch
  • Documentation for the following sniffs:
    • Generic.WhiteSpace.IncrementDecrementSpacing
    • PSR12.ControlStructures.ControlStructureSpacing

Changed

  • The Performance report can now also be used for a phpcbf run. #308
  • Sniff tests which extend the PHPCS native AbstractSniffUnitTest class will now show a (non-build-breaking) warning when test case files contain fixable errors/warnings, but there is no corresponding .fixed file available in the test suite to verify the fixes against. #336

  • The following sniffs have received performance related improvements:
  • Various housekeeping, including improvements to the tests and documentation

Deprecated

  • Support for scanning JavaScript and CSS files. See #2448.
    • This also means that all sniffs which are only aimed at JavaScript or CSS files are now deprecated.
    • The Javascript and CSS Tokenizers, all Javascript and CSS specific sniffs, and support for JS and CSS in select sniffs which support multiple file types, will be removed in version 4.0.0.
  • The abstract PHP_CodeSniffer\Filters\ExactMatch::getBlacklist() and PHP_CodeSniffer\Filters\ExactMatch::getWhitelist() methods are deprecated and will be removed in the 4.0 release. See #198.
    • In version 4.0, these methods will be replaced with abstract ExactMatch::getDisallowedFiles() and ExactMatch::getAllowedFiles() methods
    • To make Filters extending ExactMatch cross-version compatible with both PHP_CodeSniffer 3.9.0+ as well as 4.0+, implement the new getDisallowedFiles() and getAllowedFiles() methods.
      • When both the getDisallowedFiles() and getAllowedFiles() methods as well as the getBlacklist() and getWhitelist() are available, the new methods will take precedence over the old methods.
    • Thanks to Juliette Reinders Folmer for the patch
  • The MySource standard and all sniffs in it. See #2471.
    • The MySource standard and all sniffs in it will be removed in version 4.0.0.
  • The Zend.Debug.CodeAnalyzer sniff. See #277.

Fixed

  • Fixed bug #235 : Generic.CodeAnalysis.ForLoopWithTestFunctionCall : prevent a potential PHP 8.3 deprecation notice during live coding
  • Fixed bug #288 : Generic.WhiteSpace.IncrementDecrementSpacing : error message for post-in/decrement will now correctly inform about new lines found before the operator.
  • Fixed bug #296 : Generic.WhiteSpace.ArbitraryParenthesesSpacing : false positive for non-arbitrary parentheses when these follow the scope closer of a switch case.
  • Fixed bug #307 : PSR2.Classes.ClassDeclaration : space between a modifier keyword and the class keyword was not checked when the space included a new line or comment.
  • Fixed bug #325 : Squiz.Operators.IncrementDecrementUsage : the sniff was underreporting when there was (no) whitespace and/or comments in unexpected places.
  • Fixed bug #335 : PSR12.Files.DeclareStatement : bow out in a certain parse error situation to prevent incorrect auto-fixes from being made.
  • Fixed bug #340 : Squiz.Commenting.ClosingDeclarationComment : no longer adds a stray newline when adding a missing comment.

Other

  • A "Community cc list" has been introduced to ping maintainers of external standards and integrators for input regarding change proposals for PHP_CodeSniffer which may impact them. #227
    • For anyone who missed the discussion about this and is interested to be on this list, please feel invited to submit a PR to add yourself.
      The list is located in the .github folder.

Squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer is dead. Long live PHPCSStandards/PHP_CodeSniffer!

Breaking Changes

  • The squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer repository has been abandoned. The PHPCSStandards/PHP_CodeSniffer repository will serve as the continuation of the project. For more information about this change, please read the announcement.
    • Installation of PHP_CodeSniffer via PEAR is no longer supported.
      • Users will need to switch to another installation method.
      • Note: this does not affect the PEAR sniffs.
    • For Composer users, nothing changes.
      • In contrast to earlier information, the squizlabs/php_codesniffer package now points to the new repository and everything will continue to work as before.
    • PHIVE users may need to clear the PHIVE URL cache.
      • PHIVE users who don't use the package alias, but refer to the package URL, will need to update the URL from https://squizlabs.github.io/PHP_CodeSniffer/phars/ to https://phars.phpcodesniffer.com/phars/.
    • Users who download the PHAR files using curl or wget, will need to update the download URL from https://squizlabs.github.io/PHP_CodeSniffer/[phpcs|phpcbf].phar or https://github.com/squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer/releases/latest/download/[phpcs|phpcbf].phar to https://phars.phpcodesniffer.com/[phpcs|phpcbf].phar.
    • For users who install PHP_CodeSniffer via the setup-php action runner for GitHub Actions, nothing changes.
    • Users using a git clone will need to update the clone address from git@github.com:squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer.git to git@github.com:PHPCSStandards/PHP_CodeSniffer.git.
      • Contributors will need to fork the new repo and add both the new fork as well as the new repo as remotes to their local git copy of PHP_CodeSniffer.
      • Users who have (valid) open issues or pull requests in the squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer repository are invited to resubmit these to the PHPCSStandards/PHP_CodeSniffer repository.

    • PSr12.Functions.NullableTypeDeclaration
    • Thanks to Juliette Reinders Folmer (@jrfnl) for the patch
  • Added a Performance report to allow for finding "slow" sniffs
    • To run this report, run PHPCS with --report=Performance.
    • Thanks to Juliette Reinders Folmer (@jrfnl) for the patch
  • Generic.PHP.RequireStrictTypes : new warning for when there is a declare statement, but the strict_types directive is set to 0
    • The warning can be turned off by excluding the Generic.PHP.RequireStrictTypes.Disabled error code
    • Thanks to Juliette Reinders Folmer (@jrfnl) for the patch
  • Squiz.Commenting.FunctionComment : new ParamNameUnexpectedAmpersandPrefix error for parameters annotated as passed by reference while the parameter is not passed by reference
    • Thanks to Dan Wallis (@fredden) for the patch
  • Documentation has been added for the following sniffs:
    • PSR2.Files.ClosingTag
    • PSR2.Methods.FunctionCallSignature
    • PSR2.Methods.FunctionClosingBrace
    • Thanks to Atsushi Okui (@blue32a) for the patch
  • Support for PHPUnit 8 and 9 to the test suite
    • Test suites for external standards which run via the PHPCS native test suite can now run on PHPUnit 4-9 (was 4-7)
    • If any of these tests use the PHPUnit setUp()/tearDown() methods or overload the setUp() in the AbstractSniffUnitTest test case, they will need to be adjusted. See the PR details for further information
    • Thanks to Juliette Reinders Folmer (@jrfnl) for the patch

Changed

  • Changes have been made to the way PHPCS handles invalid sniff properties being set in a custom ruleset
    • Fixes PHP 8.2 deprecation notices for properties set in a (custom) ruleset for complete standards/complete sniff categories
    • Invalid sniff properties set for individual sniffs will now result in an error and halt the execution of PHPCS
      • A descriptive error message is provided to allow users to fix their ruleset
    • Sniff properties set for complete standards/complete sniff categories will now only be set on sniffs which explicitly support the property
      • The property will be silently ignored for those sniffs which do not support the property
    • Invalid sniff properties set for sniffs via inline annotations will result in an informative Internal.PropertyDoesNotExist errror on line 1 of the scanned file, but will not halt the execution of PHPCS
    • For sniff developers, it is strongly recommended for sniffs to explicitly declare any user-adjustable public properties
      • If dynamic properties need to be supported for a sniff, either declare the magic __set()/__get()/__isset()/__unset() methods on the sniff or let the sniff extend stdClass
      • Note: The #[\AllowDynamicProperties] attribute will have no effect for properties which are being set in rulesets
    • Thanks to Juliette Reinders Folmer (@jrfnl) for the patch
  • The third parameter for the Ruleset::setSniffProperty() method has been changed to expect an array
    • Sniff developers/integrators of PHPCS may need to make some small adjustments to allow for this change
    • Existing code will continue to work but will throw a deprecation error
    • The backwards compatiblity layer will be removed in PHPCS 4.0
    • Thanks to Juliette Reinders Folmer (@jrfnl) for the patch
  • When using auto report width (the default) a value of 80 columns will be used if the width cannot be determined
    • Thanks to Juliette Reinders Folmer (@jrfnl) for the patch
  • Sniff error messages are now more informative to help bugs get reported to the correct project
    • Thanks to Juliette Reinders Folmer (@jrfnl) for the patch
  • Generic.CodeAnalysis.UnusedFunctionParameter will now ignore magic methods for which the signature is defined by PHP
    • Thanks to Juliette Reinders Folmer (@jrfnl) for the patch
  • Generic.Functions.OpeningFunctionBraceBsdAllman will now check the brace indent before the opening brace for empty functions
    • Thanks to Juliette Reinders Folmer (@jrfnl) for the patch
  • Generic.Functions.OpeningFunctionBraceKernighanRitchie will now check the spacing before the opening brace for empty functions
    • Thanks to Juliette Reinders Folmer (@jrfnl) for the patch
  • Generic.WhiteSpace.IncrementDecrementSpacing now detects more spacing issues
    • Thanks to Juliette Reinders Folmer (@jrfnl) for the patch
  • PSR2.Classes.PropertyDeclaration now enforces that the readonly modifier comes after the visibility modifier
    • PSR2 and PSR12 do not have documented rules for this as they pre-date the readonly modifier
    • PSR-PER has been used to confirm the order of this keyword so it can be applied to PSR2 and PSR12 correctly
    • Thanks to Juliette Reinders Folmer (@jrfnl) for the patch
  • PEAR.Commenting.FunctionComment + Squiz.Commenting.FunctionComment: the SpacingAfter error can now be auto-fixed
    • Thanks to Dan Wallis (@fredden) for the patch
  • Squiz.PHP.InnerFunctions sniff no longer reports on OO methods for OO structures declared within a function or closure
  • Squiz.PHP.NonExecutableCode will now also flag redundant return statements just before a closure close brace
    • Thanks to Juliette Reinders Folmer (@jrfnl) for the patch
  • Runtime performance improvement for PHPCS CLI users. The improvement should be most noticeable for users on Windows.
    • Thanks to Juliette Reinders Folmer (@jrfnl) for the patch
  • The following sniffs have received performance related improvements:
    • Generic.PHP.LowerCaseConstant
    • Generic.PHP.LowerCaseType
