PHP Code Sniffer

#1

This is a simple plugin to run phpcs by plugin. If there is any interest, perhaps this could be expanded to apply some fixes based on the text phpcs returns.

[code]import sublime, sublimeplugin

phpcs.py

This is a terribly simple plugin. Running it will call PHP Codesniffer

and validate your PHP code against the Codesniffer’s version of the

Zend Standards. Output will be shown in the console.

TODO: It should, in theory, be possible to automatically correct certain

errors by parsing the resulting text from phpcs and applying basic

string replacements on the correct lines- for example converting

56 | ERROR | Opening brace should be on a new line

to a regex on line 56 to turn …){… to …) {…

See http://pear.php.net/package/PHP_CodeSniffer/

class PhpcsCommand(sublimeplugin.TextCommand):
def run(self, view, args):
view.window().runCommand(“save”)
cmd = “phpcs --standard=Zend " + view.fileName()
view.window().runCommand(“exec”,”",cmd])[/code]
Also, I happen to prefer having this bound to F8 as such:

<binding key="f8" command="phpcs" />

Another point of improvement could be to add parameters/ multiple bindings to allow users to validate against multiple standards they may have installed.

Hi,
sorry for reopen an old post.
This is the only one I’ve find about using code sniffer inside Sublime Text.

I’ve tried this plugin, but don’t woks.
I’ve created a Phpcs folder inside Packages and phpcs.py with the code

import sublime
import sublime_plugin

class PhpcsCommand(sublime_plugin.TextCommand):
    def run(self, view, args):
        view.window().runCommand("save")
        cmd = "phpcs --standard=Joomla " + view.fileName()
        view.window().runCommand("exec", "", cmd])

Each time I tried to use it I receive this by console

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./sublime_plugin.py", line 351, in run_
    return self.run(edit)
TypeError: run() takes exactly 3 arguments (2 given)

I’m not python programmer, so I haven’t find a solution by myself neither google.

I use the Joomla standard and have checked the command works in my console. I’m running kubuntu 11.10 with python 2.7

Some one can help me? thanks

You are trying to use this plugin with Sublime Text 2, right? The API has changed a bit, so the code should look something like this instead (untested)

import sublime
import sublime_plugin

class PhpcsCommand(sublime_plugin.TextCommand):
    def run(self, edit):
        self.view.window().run_command("save")
        cmd = "phpcs --standard=Joomla " + self.view.file_name()
        self.view.window().run_command("exec", "", cmd])

I hope it works for you.

Hi svenax, thanks for your reply.
Yes, this is Sublime Text 2.
I’ve change the plugin’s code in the way you quote, now, the fail at console is:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./sublime_plugin.py", line 326, in run_
    return self.run(**args)
TypeError: run() argument after ** must be a mapping, not list

Hi,
I’ve find an updated plugin in kirbymixedmedia.com/hacks-ma … ime-text-2
I’ve adapt the code, and works fine for me.

import sublime
import sublime_plugin


class PhpcsCommand(sublime_plugin.TextCommand):
    def run(self, edit):
        self.view.window().run_command('save')
        
        file_name = self.view.file_name()
        self.view.window().run_command("exec", {'cmd': 'phpcs',  '--standard=zend', '--tab-width=4', file_name]})
     	sublime.status_message("CodeSniffer executed on " + folder_name  + "/" + file_name)

Hi,
The actual code for the plugin is

import sublime
import sublime_plugin


class PhpcsCommand(sublime_plugin.TextCommand):
    def run(self, edit):
        self.view.window().run_command('save')

        file_name = self.view.file_name()
        self.view.window().run_command("exec", {'cmd': 'phpcs', '--standard=Joomla', '--tab-width=4', file_name]})
        sublime.status_message("CodeSniffer executed on " + file_name)

It works, but looks like it works only once. Each new execution in the same file returns the same CodeSniffer output. I check with a console CodeSniffer run, and it’s correct.

Some one can tell me how to force the refresh?

thanks.

I have find a new solution using SublimeREPL (viewtopic.php?f=5&t=2964)
I’ve make a new config for CodeSniffer in SubliemREPL that is working fine.


     {
        "id": "tools",
        "children":
        {
            "caption": "SublimeREPL",
            "mnemonic": "r",
            "id": "SublimeREPL",
            "children":
            
                {
                    "command": "repl_open", 
                    "caption": "CodeSniffer Joomla",
                    "mnemonic": "j",
                    "args": 
                    {
                        "type": "subprocess",
                        "encoding": "utf8",
                        "cmd": "phpcs", "--standard=Joomla", "--tab-width=4", "$file"],
                        "cwd": "$file_path",
                        "syntax": "Packages/PHP/PHP.tmLanguage",
                        "external_id": "phpcs"
                    }
                }
            ]   
        }]
    }

Hi laxusburn,
Actually I’m using a diferent plugin that is a best solution.
You can find in package control an is call phpcs
You can see here: soulbroken.co.uk/code/sublimephpcs

The SublimeREPL solution is:

  • Install SublimeREPL
  • Create a new folder in packages/sublimerepl/config (my own is CodeSniffer_Joomla)
  • copy paste my previous config file in this folder, with name Main

Best Regards
