Skeleton for Github PHP packages
================================

[](#skeleton-for-github-php-packages)

Command-line tool for `generating` Composer package skeleton (file structure, basic coding standard checkers and code analysing tools, pre-commit hooks...) suitable for Github.

Features
--------

[](#features)

1. File structure according to [PDS/Skeleton](https://github.com/php-pds/skeleton)
2. Code style checker compliant with [PSR-2](http://http://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-2/)
3. Pre-commit hook for PHP lint and code style check
4. Suggests other useful libraries

Why?
----

[](#why)

Mainly because of my laziness. It helps me create package with all the juicy files like `.editorconfig`, `.gitattributes` and helps me jump strait to a new project. Second reason is that if I change some basic code style checking tool, I would like to have an easy way to upgrade this tool in all my projects.

------------
