Getting CodeSniffer and Drupal Coder

• Install code sniffer v2.7 globally with composer (see this issue): composer global require squizlabs/php_codesniffer

• Install drupal/coder globally with composer: composer global require drupal/coder

• Register the Drupal and DrupalPractice Standard with PHPCS: phpcs --config-set installed_paths ~/.composer/vendor/drupal/coder/coder_sniffer

Sublime Text configuration

• Get SublimeLinter using Package Control: ⌘ + P Package Control: Install Package and then SublimeLinter

• Get SublimeLinter-phpcs using Package Control: ⌘ + P Package Control: Install Package and then SublimeLinter-phpcs

• You can set the standard globally in your SublimeLinter Settings (Preferences > Package Settings > Sublime Linter > Settings) or per project in your .sublime-project file:

    "SublimeLinter": {
        "linters": {
            "phpcs": {
                "standard": "Drupal"
            }
        }
    }

Official instructions here.

• Under Preferences > Languages & Frameworks > PHP > Code Sniffer select “Local” for the phpcs script path and paste the exact path to your local installation: (on macOS it would like this: /Users/yourusername/.composer/vendor/squizlabs/php_codesniffer/scripts/phpcs)

• Open and check Preferences > Editor > Inspections > PHP Code Sniffer validation

• From the right pane select the Coding standard drop-down list, choose “Custom” and click the Browse button

• In the Custom Coding Standard dialog box that opens, specify the path to the root directory of your own coding standard in the Root directory, something like: /Users/yourusername/.composer/vendor/drupal/coder/coder_sniffer/Drupal/ruleset.xml

VSCode Configuration

• Install the phpcs extension
