### Development tools &amp; coding standard scripts for Polymorphine libraries

[](#development-tools--coding-standard-scripts-for-polymorphine-libraries)

- [PHPUnit](https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/phpunit) testing library.
- Combination of [PHP-CS-Fixer](https://github.com/FriendsOfPHP/PHP-CS-Fixer)and [CodeSniffer](https://github.com/squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer) with custom settings added as dev dependency of Polymorphine packages.
- Package skeleton scripted with [Skeletons](https://github.com/shudd3r/skeletons) engine.

### Installation with [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/)

[](#installation-with-composer)

```
composer require --dev polymorphine/dev
```

#### PHP-CS-Fixer

[](#php-cs-fixer)

`PHP-CS-Fixer` will automatically fix code formatting, and `CodeSniffer`will check style errors that need to be adjusted manually like: naming conventions, line lengths and some [phpDoc constraints](#codesniffer-custom-phpdoc-requirements).

Fixer needs project scope configuration to set up factory with package name used in a file docBlock headers and absolute path to its root directory. Add [`cs-fixer.php.dist`](cs-fixer.php.dist) configuration file similar to the one supplied with this package to root directory of your project.

Use this command to run fixer for given file or directory (path):

```
vendor/bin/php-cs-fixer fix -v --config=cs-fixer.php.dist --using-cache=no --path-mode=intersection path

```

#### CodeSniffer

[](#codesniffer)

`CodeSniffer` tool is used only because of Fixer limitations. Not every style constraint violation can be automatically fixed, so this tool will inform you about inconsistencies that need manual fixing.

[`phpcs.xml`](phpcs.xml) file is the configuration for all projects using this package as a composer dependency (in default vendor directory). However, console command running CodeSniffer requires the absolute path to this config file. For example Github Action command may build the absolute path with `$GITHUB_WORKSPACE` env variable:

```
vendor/bin/phpcs --extensions=php --standard=$GITHUB_WORKSPACE/vendor/polymorphine/dev/phpcs.xml path

```

#### IDE Setup (PhpStorm)

[](#ide-setup-phpstorm)

###### PHP-CS-Fixer

[](#php-cs-fixer-1)

Use `Setting > Tools > External Tools` to configure `php-cs-fixer` environment:

- `Program:` add path to `vendor/bin/php-cs-fixer` (for Windows: `vendor/bin/php-cs-fixer.bat`)
- `Parameters:` add command fixing currently opened project file: ```
    fix -v --config=cs-fixer.php.dist --using-cache=no --path-mode=intersection "$FileDir$\$FileName$"

    ```

    If you want to add another tool entry with checking command the command above would need additional `--dry-run` switch.
- `Working directory:` set to `$ProjectFileDir$`
- Add keyboard shortcuts to run commands in `Settings > Keymap > External Tool`

###### Code Sniffer

[](#code-sniffer)

Code sniffer does not change the code by itself, so it's better to set is as one of the inspections:

- Add path to local `phpcs` script in `Settings > Languages & Frameworks > PHP > Code Sniffer`
- Set custom ruleset in `Settings > Editor > Inspections > PHP Code Sniffer validation`with absolute path to [`phpcs.xml`](phpcs.xml) file provided with this package - as a project dependency it will be located in `vendor/polymorphine/cs/` directory, and composer's autoload script will be two levels above.

#### CodeSniffer custom PhpDoc requirements

[](#codesniffer-custom-phpdoc-requirements)

- Original public method signatures require phpDoc block comments (their contents are not inspected). Original method is the one that introduces new signature - it doesn't override parent's method nor provides implementation for method defined by an interface. In case of traits every method is considered original.
- PhpDoc's `@param` and `@return` tags with `callable` or `Closure` type require additional description formatted similar to short lambda notation - example: ```
    /**
     * @param Closure $callback fn(Param1Type, Param2Type) => ReturnType
     *
     * @return callable fn(bool) => \FQN\Return\Type
     */
    ```
