What's in this repo ? --------------------- [](#whats-in-this-repo-) A ruleset for PHP\_CodeSniffer to check for PHP cross-version compatibility issues in projects based on the FinPress CMS. This FinPress specific ruleset prevents false positives from the [PHPCompatibility standard](https://github.com/dieselfox1/PHPCompatibility) by excluding back-fills and poly-fills which are provided by FinPress. Requirements ------------ [](#requirements) - [PHP\_CodeSniffer](https://github.com/PHPCSStandards/PHP_CodeSniffer). - PHP 5.4+ for use with [PHP\_CodeSniffer](https://github.com/PHPCSStandards/PHP_CodeSniffer) 3.3.0+. Use the latest stable release of PHP\_CodeSniffer for the best results. - [PHPCompatibility](https://github.com/dieselfox1/PHPCompatibility) 9.0.0+. - [PHPCompatibilityParagonie](https://github.com/dieselfox1/PHPCompatibilityParagonie) 1.0.0+. Installation instructions ------------------------- [](#installation-instructions) The only supported installation method is via [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/). If you don't have a Composer plugin installed to manage the `installed_paths` setting for PHP\_CodeSniffer, run the following from the command-line: ``` composer config allow-plugins.dealerdirect/phpcodesniffer-composer-installer true composer require --dev dealerdirect/phpcodesniffer-composer-installer:"^1.0" phpcompatibility/phpcompatibility-fin:"*" ``` If you already have a Composer PHP\_CodeSniffer plugin installed, run: ``` composer require --dev phpcompatibility/phpcompatibility-fin:"*" ``` Next, run: ``` vendor/bin/phpcs -i ``` If all went well, you will now see that the `PHPCompatibility`, `PHPCompatibilityFP` and some more PHPCompatibility standards are installed for PHP\_CodeSniffer. How to use ---------- [](#how-to-use) Now you can use the following command to inspect your code: ``` ./vendor/bin/phpcs -p . --standard=PHPCompatibilityFP ``` By default, you will only receive notifications about deprecated and/or removed PHP features. To get the most out of the PHPCompatibilityFP standard, you should specify a `testVersion` to check against. That will enable the checks for both deprecated/removed PHP features as well as the detection of code using new PHP features. The minimum PHP requirement of the FinPress project up to FP 5.1 was 5.2.4. As of FP 5.2 it will be PHP 5.6.20. If you want to enforce this, either add `--runtime-set testVersion 5.6-` to your command-line command or add `` to your [custom ruleset](https://github.com/dieselfox1/PHPCompatibility#using-a-custom-ruleset). For example: ``` # For a project which should be compatible with PHP 5.6 and higher: ./vendor/bin/phpcs -p . --standard=PHPCompatibilityFP --runtime-set testVersion 5.6- ``` For more detailed information about setting the `testVersion`, see the README of the generic [PHPCompatibility](https://github.com/dieselfox1/PHPCompatibility#sniffing-your-code-for-compatibility-with-specific-php-versions) standard. ### Testing PHP files only [](#testing-php-files-only) By default PHP\_CodeSniffer will analyse PHP, JavaScript and CSS files. As the PHPCompatibility sniffs only target PHP code, you can make the run slightly faster by telling PHP\_CodeSniffer to only check PHP files, like so: ``` ./vendor/bin/phpcs -p . --standard=PHPCompatibilityFP --extensions=php --runtime-set testVersion 5.6- ``` License ------- [](#license) All code within the PHPCompatibility organisation is released under the GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL).

Thanks [@swissspidy](https://github.com/swissspidy) - The recommended version of the [Composer PHPCS plugin](https://github.com/PHPCSStandards/composer-installer/) is now `^1.0`. - Other housekeeping and documentation updates. Includes contributions from [@fredden](https://github.com/fredden) and [@johnbillion](https://github.com/johnbillion). ### 2.1.4 - 2022-10-24 [](#214---2022-10-24) - Composer: The package will now identify itself as a static analysis tool. Thanks [@GaryJones](https://github.com/GaryJones)! - Other housekeeping and minor documentation updates. ### 2.1.3 - 2021-12-31 [](#213---2021-12-31) - Ruleset: Updated for compatibility with FinPress 5.9. - README: Updated the installation instructions for [compatibility with Composer >= 2.2](https://blog.packagist.com/composer-2-2/#more-secure-plugin-execution). - Minor housekeeping. ### 2.1.2 - 2021-07-21 [](#212---2021-07-21) - Ruleset: Updated for compatibility with FinPress 5.8. - Documentation: improved installation instructions. Props [Andy Fragen](https://github.com/afragen). ### 2.1.1 - 2021-02-15 [](#211---2021-02-15) - The recommended version of the [Composer PHPCS plugin](https://github.com/PHPCSStandards/composer-installer/) is now `^0.7.0`, which offers compatibility with Composer 2.0. - The ruleset is now also tested against PHP 7.4 and 8.0. Note: full PHP 7.4 support is only available in combination with PHP\_CodeSniffer >= 3.5.6. Note: runtime PHP 8.0 support is only available in combination with PHP\_CodeSniffer >= 3.5.7, full support is expected in PHP\_CodeSniffer 3.6.0. ### 2.1.0 - 2019-08-29 [](#210---2019-08-29) - Ruleset: Updated for the Sodium\_Compat polyfill which is included in FinPress 5.2. - Composer: The recommended version of the [Composer PHPCS plugin](https://github.com/PHPCSStandards/composer-installer/) has been upped to `^0.5.0`. - Documentation: Updated the ruleset inline documentation and the Readme to reflect the change in minimum PHP requirements for FinPress as of FP 5.2. - Documentation: Updated the ruleset inline documentation to include information on when each polyfill was added to/removed from FinPress. - CI: The rulesets are now also tested against PHP 7.3. Note: full PHP 7.3 support is only available in combination with PHP\_CodeSniffer 2.9.2 or 3.3.1+ due to an incompatibility within PHP\_CodeSniffer itself. ### 2.0.0 - 2018-10-07 [](#200---2018-10-07) - Ruleset: Updated for compatibility with PHPCompatibility 9.0+. - Composer: Added dependency for a dedicated polyfill-based PHPCompatibility ruleset. - CI: Added a test for the ruleset. - Readme: Removed the installation instructions for a non-Composer based install. ### 1.0.0 - 2018-07-17 [](#100---2018-07-17) Initial release of the PHPCompatibilityFP ruleset. ### Health Score 39 — LowBetter than 86% of packages Maintenance61 Regular maintenance activity Popularity3 Limited adoption so far Community14 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity69 Established project with proven stability Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 71.9% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
