Snoopy for PHP5?

(Nic Hubbard) #1

Hey Guys,


Just wondering if there is going to be a version of Snoopy for php5. Right now the Matrix website says that Snoopy does not support php5. Do the developers still use Snoopy? Is there a new version, or another alternative?



I am wanting to test my Matrix code to make sure I am following good coding practices, so I am really wanting to run my code through something like Snoopy.



Also, is "The Construct" ever going to be released?



Thanks.

No, it's done I think. I haven't had the time to port over the coding standards to PHP_CodeSniffer so the dev's just do it manually now.

Maybe. We need to work on it a bit more to make it easier to install, which will will be doing in the new year.

So, the current tool I should be using to check my coding standards is PHP_CodeSniffer?

Thanks Greg.

Not for Matrix. There is no tool right now. You just need to apply the standards manually using the PDF.

Sorry for being dense, which PDF are you referring to?

I’m not 100% sure where the link is, but you can get it here: http://matrix.squiz.net/__data/assets/file/0008/431/coding_standards.pdf
