Configure PHP CS Fixer
Sometimes, we mess up the basic rules of code style. So we need a friend to cover our back! With PHP we are using PHP CS Fixer by to configure it we follow the steps below.
Make sure PHP CS Fixer installed for the development environment only
We needn't have CS Fixer on any other environment.
Make sure to exclude auto-generated files
Strongly recommended to exclude auto-generated files like Migrations for example. That kind of file may be risky to overwrite.
Set correct CS rules based on project needs
You can find all CS rules on this repository.
Final check for risky rules
If this is a greenfield project then enable risky rules without worries, otherwise, disable risky rules or make sure applied rules do not cause any side effects.
Run the PHP CS Fixer command to see the result
If the behavior is as expected, then let's build some bigger projects 😎
