grunt-phpstrict

Strict PHP development

Description

This plugin helps you in the development process, when using PHP type hints. It warns you if parameter types or return types are missing and enforces you to employ a strict programming by linting your code.

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.5

If you haven't used Grunt before, be sure to check out the Getting Started guide, as it explains how to create a Gruntfile as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:

npm install grunt-phpstrict --save-dev

Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-phpstrict');

The "phpstrict" task

Overview

In your project's Gruntfile, add a section named phpstrict to the data object passed into grunt.initConfig().

grunt.initConfig({
  phpstrict: {
    files: // Target a specific directory containing relevant .php files; fx: 'src/**/*.php'
  }
});
