The current [b]XOOPS Coding Standards[/b] [url=https://docs.google.com/View?docID=dgb3svsv_86dx8xcsfr]are here[/url] But how to make sure that everybody does it correctly, and there are no mistakes? Here comes the [url=http://pear.php.net/package/PHP_CodeSniffer/][b]PHP CodeSniffer[/b][/url], which we'll use going forward before each release. We would also like every developer contributing code to XOOPS (be it to Core, or as individual modules) to check his/her work before submitting to SVN! [b]1) Install CodeSniffer:[/b] If you're using WAMP, here are instructions to install PEAR, and then CodeSniffer: http://www.webeks.net/computer/other/wamp-pear-installation.html NOTE: there are currently [url=http://blog.pear.php.net/2009/07/01/php-53-windows-and-pear/]problems with installing PEAR on PHP 5.3[/url]: 2) Set Zend as your default: [code]phpcs --config-set default_standard Zend[/code] 3) Run CodeSniffer. See: http://pear.php.net/manual/en/package.php.php-codesniffer.usage.php I didn't compare the Zend standard with ours, but since our is based on Zend, then they should be very similar. If there are differences, we'll create our own customized standard file, based on our "XOOPS Coding Standards", as described here: http://clockwerx.blogspot.com/2008/06/how-to-customise-phpcodesniffer.html As we are moving forward it's important that we start using more and more tools that will help us with improving our code and our development process. As next, I am looking at "PHP Under Control" http://phpundercontrol.org/about.html has anybody any experience with it?[/quote] Click the Preview to see the content in action.
