Type y to use all the extensions provided by the package.

Getting Started

After installation, you can extend the provided configurations to suit your project's specific needs.

Setting Up Easy Coding Standard

To use the Easy Coding Standard, create an ecs.php file at your project's root with this setup or update your configuration:

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

use Symplify\EasyCodingStandard\Config\ECSConfig;

return ECSConfig::configure()
    ->withRootFiles()
    ->withPaths([
        __DIR__ . '/src',
        __DIR__ . '/tests',
    ])
    // This is required to include the StrictPHP Conventions
    ->withSets([\StrictPhp\Conventions\ExtensionFiles::Ecs]);

Configuring RectorPHP

For integrating RectorPHP, add a rector.php file in your project's root with the following configuration or update your configuration :

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

use Rector\Config\RectorConfig;

return RectorConfig::configure()
    ->withRootFiles()
    ->withPaths([
        __DIR__ . '/src',
        __DIR__ . '/tests',
    ])
    // This is required to include the StrictPHP Conventions
    ->withSets([\StrictPhp\Conventions\ExtensionFiles::Rector]);

Integrating PHPStan

It is required you to use phpstan extension installer to install the required extensions. This is recommended setup:

parameters:
  level: max
  paths:
      - src
      - ecs.php
      - rector.php
      - extension-ecs.php
      - extension-rector.php
