Epiphyt Coding Standard

The Epiphyt Coding Standard for PHP_CodeSniffer extends the WordPress Coding Standard by providing sniffs with additional checks.

It is more strict and leaves less room for custom code style. It is used throughout all Epiphyt products.

Installation

The recommended way to install the Epiphyt Coding Standard is Composer.

composer require --dev epiphyt/coding-standard

Configuration

Add the rule EpiphytCodingStandard, add all paths to the included sniffs, add a PHP testVersion as well as minimum_supported_wp_version:
