PHPStan Extension for Magento 1 / OpenMage
==========================================

[](#phpstan-extension-for-magento-1--openmage)

Extension for [PHPStan](https://github.com/phpstan/phpstan) to allow analysis of Magento 1/OpenMage code.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Add `phpstan.neon` to your Magento 1/OpenMage project.

Make sure it has

```
includes:
    - vendor/vianetz/phpstan-magento1/extension.neon
```

Then run

```
composer require --dev vianetz/phpstan-magento1
```

Alternative Magento path
------------------------

[](#alternative-magento-path)

By default this extension assumes the Magento directory is `%currentWorkingDirectory%/htdocs`.

You can adapt the path by changing the `magentoRootDirectory` parameter in the `phpstan.neon` file.

Example configuration file for analysing Magento Extensions
-----------------------------------------------------------

[](#example-configuration-file-for-analysing-magento-extensions)

```
includes:
    - vendor/vianetz/phpstan-magento1/extension.neon
parameters:
    paths:
        - %currentWorkingDirectory%/htdocs/app/code/local
```

Known Issues
============

[](#known-issues)

Data/SQL scripts can't be tested
--------------------------------

[](#datasql-scripts-cant-be-tested)

Since these scripts use a presumed `$this` variable due to being included from a setup class, work is needed to:

- work out the correct setup class
- somehow make phpstan aware of it for the file

Magento fluent interface classes aren't fluent for sub-classes
--------------------------------------------------------------

[](#magento-fluent-interface-classes-arent-fluent-for-sub-classes)

This causes subsequent calls to the class object to assume the scope of the super-class that defined the return type.

This is due to their PHPDoc not using the up to date way of specifying fluency with subclasses using `$this` as the type.

Options to resolve:

- Avoid using the fluent interface on these classes
- Patch Magento code to use $this as the return type
- Define @method PHPDoc for the called methods in the subclass
- Add the error to the parameters.ignoreErrors phpstan configuration to ignore it - this loses the ability to properly type the subseqent methods of the fluent interface

Mage\_Core\_Model\_Abstract::load `$id` is not an integer
---------------------------------------------------------

[](#mage_core_model_abstractload-id-is-not-an-integer)

This is due to an inadequate PHPDoc of the load method of the Mage\_Core\_Model\_Abstract class. It should have used a "mixed" type to support when a field is specified as the 2nd argument.

PHPStan extensions have no way of altering existing method parameters.

Options to resolve:

- Patch the Magento code to use mixed as the $id parameter type
- If available in the chain of super-classes, use the loadBy{Field} method, which has the correct parameter typing
- Define @method PHPDoc in your class (which extends Mage\_Core\_Model\_Abstract or a subclass of it) with the correct parameter types
- Add the error to the parameters.ignoreErrors phpstan configuration to ignore it
