This is a plugin for Sublime Text 3/4, to format PHP code through php-cs-fixer command on any view.
- It works inside a temporal view (ie: on an new, non-saved file)
- Fast
- Easy
- Configurable through rules or a config file
- Tested on Windows and Linux
You have to install the actual php-cs-fixer (the actual tool made by sensiolabs, not this plugin)
You can install php-cs-fixer directly with composer by running:
composer global require friendsofphp/php-cs-fixer
Also you can create a config file as explained here https://github.com/FriendsOfPHP/PHP-CS-Fixer
for example in: $HOME/.php-cs-fixer.php
<?php
return (new PhpCsFixer\Config)
->setRules([
'@Symfony' => true,
'array_syntax' => ['syntax' => 'short'],
]);
If you've created a config file, you have to configure its path in the plugin's settings.
In Menu -> Preferences -> Package Settings -> PHP CS Fixer -> Settings - user
{
"config": "/path/to/.php-cs-fixer.php"
}
When using multiple projects with different configurations, it's possible to configure the path relative to the Sublime project folder:
{
"config": "${folder}/.php-cs-fixer.php",
"php": "${packages}/User/php",
"path": "${packages}/User/php-cs-fixer.php"
}
It's also possible to specify multiple config paths. In that case, the first readable file is used:
{
"config": [
"${file_path}/.php-cs-fixer.php",
"${folder}/.php-cs-fixer.php",
"/path/to/.php-cs-fixer.php"
]
}
See extract_variables
in the Sublime API Reference
for the supported replacement variables. The value of the ${folder}
points
the path of the first project in Sublime API. Here, it's beforehand replaced
with the path of the project the target file belongs.
Please note:
rules
andconfig
directives are excluding.- This plugin don't try to find the config file automatically. If you want to create a config file, you have to specify its path in the plugin settings.
{
"rules": {
"@PhpCsFixer": true,
},
// or
"rules": "@PhpCsFixer",
// or
"rules": [
"@PhpCsFixer"
]
}
Please note that rules
and config
directives are excluding.

Since all php files are passed directly to the php-cs-fixer executable, a configured PhpCsFixer\Finder gets ignored. In order to exclude files from php-cs-fixer, you can use the "exclude" setting:
{
"exclude": [
".*[\\\\/]vendor[\\\\/].*", // vendor-path (used by Composer)
".*\\.phtml$" // files ending with ".phtml"
]
}
The exclude-filter uses python regular expressions. For more information see: https://docs.python.org/2/library/re.html
The plugin tries to find the executable in:
%APPDATA%\composer\vendor\bin\php-cs-fixer.bat
If it isn't working, you can locate your composer global packages path by running:
composer config -g home
After installing php-cs-fixer you have to specify the full path to the executable in the configuration page.
The plugin tries to find the executable in:
$HOME/.composer/vendor/bin/php-cs-fixer
However, if it isn't working, you can create a symbolic link to the php-cs-fixer executable
ln -s $HOME/.composer/vendor/bin/php-cs-fixer $HOME/bin/php-cs-fixer
I've checked this on Linux and Windows, but I cannot check it on OSX. I'll thank you if someone tells me if it's working on OSX and give me some details on how to configure it.
I would like to thank to sensiolabs and contributors for their awesome package. It works flawlessly. All the work here belongs to them.
