CommaSpacingSniff
in package
implements Sniff

FinalYes

Check spacing around commas.

  • Demands there is no whitespace between the preceeding code and the comma.
  • Demands exactly one space or a new line after a comma.
  • Demands that when there is a trailing comment, the comma follows the code, not the comment.

The following exclusions are in place:

  • A comma preceded or followed by a parenthesis, curly or square bracket. These will not be flagged to prevent conflicts with sniffs handling spacing around braces.
  • A comma preceded or followed by another comma, like for skipping items in a list assignment. These will not be flagged.
  • A comma preceded by a non-indented heredoc/nowdoc closer. In that case, unless the php_version config directive is set to a version higher than PHP 7.3.0, a new line before will be enforced to prevent parse errors on PHP < 7.3.

The sniff has a separate error code for when a comma is found with more than one space after it, followed by a trailing comment. That way trailing comment alignment can be allowed by excluding that error code.

The sniff uses modular error code suffixes for select situations, like *InFunctionDeclaration, *InFunctionCall, to allow for preventing duplicate messages if another sniff is already handling the comma spacing.

public process(File $phpcsFile, int $stackPtr) : void
Parameters
$phpcsFile : File

The file being scanned.

$stackPtr : int

The position of the current token in the stack passed in $tokens.

Return values
array<string|int, int|string>

processSpacingAfter()

Check the spacing after the comma.

protected processSpacingAfter(File $phpcsFile, int $stackPtr) : void
Parameters
$phpcsFile : File

The file being scanned.

$stackPtr : int

The position of the current token in the stack passed in $tokens.

processSpacingBefore()

Check the spacing before the comma.

protected processSpacingBefore(File $phpcsFile, int $stackPtr) : void
Parameters
$phpcsFile : File

The file being scanned.

$stackPtr : int

The position of the current token in the stack passed in $tokens.

codeSuffixToMetric()

Transform a suffix for an error code into a suffix for a metric.

private codeSuffixToMetric(string $suffix) : string
Parameters
$suffix : string

Error code suffix.

Tags

1.1.0
Return values
string

escapePlaceholders()

Escape arbitrary token content for *printf() placeholders.

private escapePlaceholders(string $text) : string
Parameters
$text : string

Arbitrary text string.

Return values
string

getSuffix()

Retrieve a text string for use as a suffix to an error code.

private getSuffix(File $phpcsFile, int $stackPtr) : string

This allows for modular error codes, which in turn allow for selectively excluding error codes.

Parameters
$phpcsFile : File

The file being scanned.

$stackPtr : int

The position of the current token in the stack passed in $tokens.
