Code Sniffer Laravel Package

Improvements

• Cache class name resolution and skip redundant return-type body scans (#62)
• O(1) conditions checks + cached arrow-function scopes in ConsistentIndentSniff (#63)
• Cache UseStatementsTrait::getUseStatements and bound the throw class-name lookup to the current statement (#64)
• Cache docblock FQCN lookups (parseUseStatements / getNamespace) and dedupe per-doc-block processing (#65)
• Cache UseStatementSniff::getUseStatements across phpcbf fix iterations (#66)

Combined, these cut composer cs-check wall-clock time roughly in half on large method-heavy codebases. On an 11k-line CakePHP controller the slowest single file went from ~40s to ~6s; on a 1095-file project the whole-codebase scan dropped from ~2m08s to ~30s with parallel=16.

Improvements

• Extend DocBlockTagOrder to class, interface, and trait docblocks with a new configurable classOrder property (#59)
• Add opt-in inner-bucket ordering to DocBlockTagOrder via a new innerOrder property and separate InnerOrderInvalid error code, so inner ordering can be enabled and scoped independently of bucket ordering (#60)

Full Changelog: https://github.com/php-collective/code-sniffer/compare/0.6.0...0.6.1

Fixes

• Fix DocBlockParamAllowDefaultValueSniff positional mismatch on partial [@param](https://github.com/param) lists, which could cause an infinite fixer loop with DocBlockParamTypeMismatchSniff (#58)

Improvements

• Replace internal sniffs with their PHPCSExtra Universal equivalents (supersets): PhpCollective.ControlStructures.DisallowAlternativeControlStructures → Universal.ControlStructures.DisallowAlternativeSyntax, PhpCollective.WhiteSpace.CommaSpacing → Universal.WhiteSpace.CommaSpacing (#55)
• Add additional Universal sniffs to the ruleset (#54)
• Add Universal attribute and whitespace sniffs (#56)
• Disallow partial uses in ReferenceUsedNamesOnly (#57)

Migration

Partial namespace references (e.g. Mockery\MockInterface when only Mockery is imported) are now flagged and must be imported via a full use statement. To keep the previous behavior, override the property in your project's phpcs.xml:

<rule ref="SlevomatCodingStandard.Namespaces.ReferenceUsedNamesOnly">
    <properties>
        <property name="allowPartialUses" value="true"/>
    </properties>
</rule>

Full Changelog: https://github.com/php-collective/code-sniffer/compare/0.5.5...0.6.0

Fixes

• Fix docblock indentation loss when EmptyEnclosingLine sniff interacted with DisallowTabIndent (#52)
• Fix InlineDocBlockSniff for abstract/interface methods - skip methods without body (#51)
• Fix NoIsNullSniff calling wrong method for trailing comparisons (#49)
• Fix EnumCaseCasingSniff multibyte support with proper mb_strtoupper() (#49)

Full Changelog: https://github.com/php-collective/code-sniffer/compare/0.5.4...0.5.5

Features

• DocBlockReturnVoidSniff: Add optional checkReturnTypeHint property to detect invalid : void return type hints on magic methods (__construct, __destruct, __clone)

Fixes

• DocBlockReturnVoidSniff: Fix hasReturnType() to properly detect return type declarations on interface and abstract methods. Previously, methods with return types but no body (e.g., public function foo(): string;) incorrectly triggered ReturnMissingInInterface errors.

Improvements

UseStatementSniff Enhancements

• PHP 8+ Attribute Support: FQCNs in attributes are now detected and auto-fixed

  // Before
  #[\Foo\Bar\SomeAttribute]
  class MyClass {}
  
  // After
  use Foo\Bar\SomeAttribute;
  
  #[SomeAttribute]
  class MyClass {}
  

• PHP 8.1+ Enum Support: Enum implements clauses are now handled

  // Before
  enum Status: string implements \Foo\Bar\SomeInterface {}
  
  // After
  use Foo\Bar\SomeInterface;
  
  enum Status: string implements SomeInterface {}
  

Notes

Only fully qualified names (starting with \) are auto-fixed. Partially qualified names (e.g., Foo\Bar without leading \) are intentionally not auto-fixed right now.

Fixes

• Preserve parameter order when inserting missing [@param](https://github.com/param) annotations - https://github.com/php-collective/code-sniffer/pull/44

Full Changelog: https://github.com/php-collective/code-sniffer/compare/0.5.0...0.5.1

Improvements

• Add support for multi-line array shape annotations by @dereuromark in https://github.com/php-collective/code-sniffer/pull/38
• Fix VariableWrong false positives for partial doc blocks by @dereuromark in https://github.com/php-collective/code-sniffer/pull/40
• Fix scope_opener error for abstract/interface methods by @dereuromark in https://github.com/php-collective/code-sniffer/pull/39
• Skip docblock requirement for constructors with fully typed parameters by @dereuromark in https://github.com/php-collective/code-sniffer/pull/41

• Remove AttributesSniff to fix conflict with Slevomat ReferenceUsedNamesOnly by @dereuromark in https://github.com/php-collective/code-sniffer/pull/43

The attribute usage is now the same as class usage. This seems to make sense moving forward and to not clash with other sniffer packages - and triggers now the major.

  • NormalizedArrays.Arrays.ArrayBraceSpacing
  • Modernize.FunctionCalls.Dirname
