Usage

Example:

```
wp lint
wp lint path/to/code

```

### Config

You can add the path to the `phpcs` bin to use in WP CLI's config file and/or the standard that should be used.

Example of `~/.wp-cli/config.yml`:

```
lint:
  phpcs: /path/to/phpcs
  standard: WordPress-Extra
```

### Options

[](#directory)

[](#--standardstandard)

The standard to use when running `phpcs`. **Default: 'WordPress-Core'**
