PHP Tooling

Priority: P2 (MEDIUM)

Structure

├── composer.json

└── .php-cs-fixer.php

Implementation Guidelines

• Composer Lock: Commit composer.lock for environment parity.
• PSR-4: Strictly map namespaces to src/ and tests/.
• Static Analysis: Integrate PHPStan (level 5+) in CI.
• Linting: Automate PSR-12 enforcement via PHP CS Fixer.
• Debugging: Use Xdebug for profiling; avoid var_dump.
• Scripts: Define lint, analyze, test in composer.json.

Anti-Patterns

• Manual Requires: No Manual Require: Rely on Composer autoload.
• Blind Updates: No Blind Updating: Review composer.lock diffs.
• Production Debug: No Prod Xdebug: Disable debugging in live env.
• Vendor Commits: No Vendor Check-in: Exclude vendor/ from git.
