Changed

  • Generators/HTML + Markdown: the output will now be empty (no page header/footer) when there are no docs to display. #687
    • This is in line with the Text Generator which already didn't produce output if there are no docs.
    • Thanks to Juliette Reinders Folmer for the patch.
  • Generators/HTML: only display a Table of Contents when there is more than one sniff with documentation. #697
  • Generators/HTML: improved handling of line breaks in <standard> blocks. #723
  • Generators/Markdown: improved compatibility with the variety of available markdown parsers. #722
  • Generators/Markdown: improved handling of line breaks in <standard> blocks. #737
    • This prevents additional paragraphs from being displayed as code blocks.
    • Thanks to Juliette Reinders Folmer for the patch.
  • Generic.NamingConventions.UpperCaseConstantName: the exact token containing the non-uppercase constant name will now be identified with more accuracy. #665
  • Generic.Functions.OpeningFunctionBraceKernighanRitchie: minor improvement to the error message wording. #736
  • Various housekeeping, including improvements to the tests and documentation.

Fixed

  • Fixed bug #527 : Squiz.Arrays.ArrayDeclaration: short lists within a foreach condition should be ignored.
  • Fixed bug #665 : Generic.NamingConventions.UpperCaseConstantName: false positives and false negatives when code uses unconventional spacing and comments when calling define().
  • Fixed bug #665 : Generic.NamingConventions.UpperCaseConstantName: false positive when a constant named DEFINE is encountered.
  • Fixed bug #665 : Generic.NamingConventions.UpperCaseConstantName: false positive for attribute class called define.

  • Fixed bug #688 : Generators/Markdown could leave error_reporting in an incorrect state.
  • Fixed bug #698 : Generators/Markdown : link in the documentation footer would not parse as a link.
  • Fixed bug #738 : Generators/Text: stray blank lines after code sample titles.
  • Fixed bug #739 : Generators/HTML + Markdown: multi-space whitespace within a code sample title was folded into a single space.

3.11.0 - 2024-11-12

Added

  • Runtime support for PHP 8.4. All known PHP 8.4 deprecation notices have been fixed.
    • Syntax support for new PHP 8.4 features will follow in a future release.
    • If you find any PHP 8.4 deprecation notices which were missed, please report them.
    • Thanks to Juliette Reinders Folmer for the patches.
  • Tokenizer support for PHP 8.3 "yield from" expressions with a comment between the keywords. #529, #647
    • Sniffs explicitly handling T_YIELD_FROM tokens may need updating. The PR description contains example code for use by sniff developers.
    • Additionally, the following sniff has been updated to support "yield from" expressions with comments:
      • Generic.WhiteSpace.LanguageConstructSpacing
    • Thanks to Juliette Reinders Folmer for the patch.
  • New Generic.WhiteSpace.HereNowdocIdentifierSpacing sniff. #586, #637
    • Forbid whitespace between the <<< and the identifier string in heredoc/nowdoc start tokens.
    • Thanks to Juliette Reinders Folmer for the patch.
  • New Generic.Strings.UnnecessaryHeredoc sniff. #633
    • Warns about heredocs without interpolation or expressions in the body text and can auto-fix these to nowdocs.
    • Thanks to Juliette Reinders Folmer for the patch.
  • Documentation for the following sniffs:

Changed

  • The Common::getSniffCode() method will now throw an InvalidArgumentException exception if an invalid $sniffClass is passed. #524, #625
  • Documentation generated using the --generator=... feature will now always be presented in natural order based on the sniff name(s). #668
  • Minor improvements to the display of runtime information. #658
  • Squiz.Commenting.PostStatementComment: trailing annotations in PHP files will now be reported under a separate, non-auto-fixable error code AnnotationFound. #560, #627
    • This prevents (tooling related) annotations from taking on a different meaning when moved by the fixer.
    • The separate error code also allows for selectively excluding it to prevent the sniff from triggering on trailing annotations, while still forbidding other trailing comments.
    • Thanks to Rodrigo Primo for the patch.
  • Squiz.ControlStructures.ForEachLoopDeclaration: the SpacingAfterOpen error code has been replaced by the SpaceAfterOpen error code. The latter is a pre-existing code. The former appears to have been a typo. #582
  • The following sniff(s) have received efficiency improvements:
  • Various housekeeping, including improvements to the tests and documentation.

Fixed

  • Fixed bug #3808 : Generic.WhiteSpace.ScopeIndent would throw false positive for tab indented multi-token yield from expression.
  • Fixed bug #630 : The tokenizer could inadvertently transform "normal" parentheses to DNF parentheses, when a function call was preceded by a switch-case / alternative syntax control structure colon.
  • Fixed bug #645 : On PHP 5.4, if yield was used as the declaration name for a function declared to return by reference, the function name would incorrectly be tokenized as T_YIELD instead of T_STRING.
  • Fixed bug #647 : Tokenizer not applying tab replacement in single token "yield from" keywords.
  • Fixed bug #647 : Generic.WhiteSpace.DisallowSpaceIndent did not flag space indentation in multi-line yield from.
  • Fixed bug #647 : Generic.WhiteSpace.DisallowTabIndent did not flag tabs inside yield from.
  • Fixed bug #652 : Generic.NamingConventions.ConstructorName: false positives for PHP-4 style calls to PHP-4 style parent constructor when a method with the same name as the parent class was called on another class.
  • Fixed bug #652 : Generic.NamingConventions.ConstructorName: false negatives for PHP-4 style calls to parent constructor for function calls with whitespace and comments in unconventional places.
  • Fixed bug #653 : Generic.Classes.DuplicateClassName : the sniff did not skip namespace keywords used as operators, which could lead to false positives.
  • Fixed bug #653 : Generic.Classes.DuplicateClassName : sniff going into an infinite loop during live coding.
  • Fixed bug #653 : Generic.Classes.DuplicateClassName : false positives/negatives when a namespace declaration contained whitespace or comments in unconventional places.
  • Fixed bug #653 : Generic.Classes.DuplicateClassName : namespace for a file going in/out of PHP was not remembered/applied correctly.

3.10.2 - 2024-07-22

Changed

Fixed

  • Fixed bug #513 : Generic.Functions.FunctionCallArgumentSpacing did not ignore the body of a match expressions passed as a function argument, which could lead to false positives.
  • Fixed bug #533 : Generic.WhiteSpace.DisallowTabIndent: tab indentation for heredoc/nowdoc closers will no longer be auto-fixed to prevent parse errors. The issue will still be reported.
    • The error code for heredoc/nowdoc indentation using tabs has been made more specific - TabsUsedHeredocCloser - to allow for selectively excluding the indentation check for heredoc/nowdoc closers.
    • Thanks to Juliette Reinders Folmer for the patch
  • Fixed bug #534 : Generic.WhiteSpace.DisallowSpaceIndent did not report on space indentation for PHP 7.3 flexible heredoc/nowdoc closers.
    • Closers using space indentation will be reported with a dedicated error code: SpacesUsedHeredocCloser.
    • Thanks to Juliette Reinders Folmer for the patch
  • Fixed bug #537 : Squiz.PHP.DisallowMultipleAssignments false positive for list assignments at the start of a new PHP block after an embedded PHP statement.
  • Fixed bug #551 : Squiz.PHP.DisallowMultipleAssignments prevent false positive for function parameters during live coding.
  • Fixed bug #554 : Generic.CodeAnalysis.UselessOverridingMethod edge case false negative when the call to the parent method would end on a PHP close tag.
  • Fixed bug #555 : Squiz.Classes.SelfMemberReference edge case false negative when the namespace declaration would end on a PHP close tag.

3.10.1 - 2024-05-22

Added

  • Documentation for the following sniffs:
    • Generic.Commenting.DocComment
    • Thanks to Rodrigo Primo for the patch.

Changed

  • The following have received efficiency improvements:
  • Various housekeeping, including improvements to the tests and documentation.

Fixed

  • Fixed bug #110, #437, #475: File::findStartOfStatement(): the start of statement/expression determination for tokens in parentheses/short array brackets/others scopes, nested within match expressions, was incorrect in most cases.
    The trickle down effect of the bug fixes made to the File::findStartOfStatement() method, is that the Generic.WhiteSpace.ScopeIndent and the PEAR.WhiteSpace.ScopeIndent sniffs should now be able to correctly determine and fix the indent for match expressions containing nested expressions.
    These fixes also fix an issue with the Squiz.Arrays.ArrayDeclaration sniff and possibly other, unreported bugs.
  • Fixed bug #504: The tokenizer could inadvertently mistake the last parameter in a function call using named arguments for a DNF type.
  • Fixed bug #508: Tokenizer/PHP: extra hardening against handling parse errors in the type handling layer.

3.9.2 - 2024-04-24

Changed

  • The Generic.ControlStructures.DisallowYodaConditions sniff no longer listens for the null coalesce operator. #458
  • Various housekeeping, including improvements to the tests and documentation.

Fixed

  • Fixed bug #381 : Squiz.Commenting.ClosingDeclarationComment could throw the wrong error when the close brace being examined is at the very end of a file.
  • Fixed bug #385 : Generic.CodeAnalysis.JumbledIncrementer improved handling of parse errors/live coding.
  • Fixed bug #394 : Generic.Functions.CallTimePassByReference was not flagging call-time pass-by-reference in anonymous class instantiations
  • Fixed bug #420 : PEAR.Functions.FunctionDeclaration could run into a blocking PHP notice while fixing code containing a parse error.
  • Fixed bug #421 : File::getMethodProperties() small performance improvement & more defensive coding.
  • Fixed bug #423 : PEAR.WhiteSpace.ScopeClosingBrace would have a fixer conflict with itself when a close tag was preceded by non-empty inline HTML.
  • Fixed bug #424 : PSR2.Classes.ClassDeclaration using namespace relative interface names in the extends/implements part of a class declaration would lead to a fixer conflict.
  • Fixed bug #427 : Squiz.Operators.OperatorSpacing would have a fixer conflict with itself when an operator was preceeded by a new line and the previous line ended in a comment.
  • Fixed bug #430 : Squiz.ControlStructures.ForLoopDeclaration: fixed potential undefined array index notice
  • Fixed bug #431 : PSR2.Classes.ClassDeclaration will no longer try to auto-fix multi-line interface implements statements if these are interlaced with comments on their own line. This prevents a potential fixer conflict.
  • Fixed bug #453 : Arrow function tokenization was broken when the return type was a stand-alone true or false; or contained true or false as part of a union type.

Other

  • ESLint 9.0 has been released and changes the supported configuration file format.
    The (deprecated) Generic.Debug.ESLint sniff only supports the "old" configuration file formats and when using the sniff to run ESLint, the ESLINT_USE_FLAT_CONFIG=false environment variable will need to be set when using ESLint >= 9.0.
    For more information, see #436.

      When running in -q (quiet) mode, the deprecation notices will be hidden.
    • Deprecated sniffs will still run and using them will have no impact on the exit code for a scan.
    • In ruleset "explain"-mode (-e) an asterix * will show next to deprecated sniffs.
    • Sniff maintainers are advised to read through the PR description for full details on how to use this feature for their own (deprecated) sniffs.
    • Thanks to Juliette Reinders Folmer for the patch
  • New Generic.CodeAnalysis.RequireExplicitBooleanOperatorPrecedence sniff. #197
    • Forbid mixing different binary boolean operators within a single expression without making precedence clear using parentheses
    • Thanks to Tim Düsterhus for the contribution
  • Squiz.PHP.EmbeddedPhp : the sniff will now also examine the formatting of embedded PHP statements using short open echo tags. #27

Changed

  • The Performance report can now also be used for a phpcbf run. #308

    • Thanks to Dan Wallis for the patch
  • The following sniffs have received performance related improvements:
  • Various housekeeping, including improvements to the tests and documentation

Deprecated

  • Support for scanning JavaScript and CSS files. See #2448.
    • This also means that all sniffs which are only aimed at JavaScript or CSS files are now deprecated.
    • The Javascript and CSS Tokenizers, all Javascript and CSS specific sniffs, and support for JS and CSS in select sniffs which support multiple file types, will be removed in version 4.0.0.
  • The abstract PHP_CodeSniffer\Filters\ExactMatch::getBlacklist() and PHP_CodeSniffer\Filters\ExactMatch::getWhitelist() methods are deprecated and will be removed in the 4.0 release. See #198.
    • In version 4.0, these methods will be replaced with abstract ExactMatch::getDisallowedFiles() and ExactMatch::getAllowedFiles() methods
    • To make Filters extending ExactMatch cross-version compatible with both PHP_CodeSniffer 3.9.0+ as well as 4.0+, implement the new getDisallowedFiles() and getAllowedFiles() methods.

Fixed

  • Fixed bug #127 : Squiz.Commenting.FunctionComment : The MissingParamType error code will now be used instead of MissingParamName when a parameter name is provided, but not its type. Additionally, invalid type hint suggestions will no longer be provided in these cases.
  • Fixed bug #196 : Squiz.PHP.EmbeddedPhp : fixer will no longer leave behind trailing whitespace when moving code to another line.
  • Fixed bug #196 : Squiz.PHP.EmbeddedPhp : will now determine the needed indent with higher precision in multiple situations.
  • Fixed bug #196 : Squiz.PHP.EmbeddedPhp : fixer will no longer insert a stray new line when the closer of a multi-line embedded PHP block and the opener of the next multi-line embedded PHP block would be on the same line.
  • Fixed bug #235 : Generic.CodeAnalysis.ForLoopWithTestFunctionCall : prevent a potential PHP 8.3 deprecation notice during live coding
  • Fixed bug #288 : Generic.WhiteSpace.IncrementDecrementSpacing : error message for post-in/decrement will now correctly inform about new lines found before the operator.
  • Fixed bug #296 : Generic.WhiteSpace.ArbitraryParenthesesSpacing : false positive for non-arbitrary parentheses when these follow the scope closer of a switch case.
  • Fixed bug #307 : PSR2.Classes.ClassDeclaration : space between a modifier keyword and the class keyword was not checked when the space included a new line or comment.
  • Fixed bug #325 : Squiz.Operators.IncrementDecrementUsage : the sniff was underreporting when there was (no) whitespace and/or comments in unexpected places.
  • Fixed bug #335 : PSR12.Files.DeclareStatement : bow out in a certain parse error situation to prevent incorrect auto-fixes from being made.
  • Fixed bug #340 : Squiz.Commenting.ClosingDeclarationComment : no longer adds a stray newline when adding a missing comment.
