<div class="s-content">
<p>This section explains the coding style policy for RSS-Bridge with examples and references to external resources.
Please make sure your code is compliant before opening a pull request.</p>
<p>You will automatically be notified if issues were found in your pull request.
You must fix those issues before the pull request will be merged.
Refer to <a href="https://github.com/RSS-Bridge/rss-bridge/blob/master/phpcs.xml" class="Link--external" rel="noopener noreferrer">phpcs.xml</a> for a complete list of policies enforced by Travis-CI.</p>
<p>If you want to run the checks locally, make sure you have
<a href="https://github.com/squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer" class="Link--external" rel="noopener noreferrer"><code>phpcs</code></a> and
<a href="https://phpunit.de/" class="Link--external" rel="noopener noreferrer"><code>phpunit</code></a> installed on your machine and run following commands in the root directory of RSS-Bridge (tested on Debian):</p>
<pre><code class="hljs shell">./vendor/bin/phpcs --standard=phpcs.xml --warning-severity=0 --extensions=php -p ./
./vendor/bin/phpunit
</code></pre>
<p>The following list provides an overview of all policies applied to RSS-Bridge.</p>
<h1><a id="whitespace" href="#whitespace" class="Permalink" aria-hidden="true" title="Permalink">#</a>Whitespace</h1>
<h2><a id="add-a-new-line-at-the-end-of-a-file" href="#add-a-new-line-at-the-end-of-a-file" class="Permalink" aria-hidden="true" title="Permalink">#</a>Add a new line at the end of a file</h2>
<p>Each PHP/CSS/HTML file must end with a new line at the end of a file.</p>
<details><summary>Example</summary><div><br>
<p><strong>Bad</strong></p>
<pre><code class="language-PHP">{
// code here
} // This is the end of the file
</code></pre>
<p><strong>Good</strong></p>
<pre><code class="language-PHP">{
// code here
}
// This is the end of the file
</code></pre>
</div></details><br>
<p><em>Reference</em>: <a href="https://github.com/squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer/blob/master/src/Standards/PSR2/Sniffs/Files/EndFileNewlineSniff.php" class="Link--external" rel="noopener noreferrer"><code>PSR2.Files.EndFileNewline</code></a></p>
<h2><a id="do-not-add-a-whitespace-before-a-semicolon" href="#do-not-add-a-whitespace-before-a-semicolon" class="Permalink" aria-hidden="true" title="Permalink">#</a>Do not add a whitespace before a semicolon</h2>
<p>A semicolon indicates the end of a line of code. Spaces before the semicolon is unnecessary and must be removed.</p>
<details><summary>Example</summary><div><br>
<p><strong>Bad</strong></p>
<pre><code class="language-PHP">echo 'Hello World!' ;
</code></pre>
<p><strong>Good</strong></p>
<pre><code class="language-PHP">echo 'Hello World!';
</code></pre>
</div></details><br>
<p><em>Reference</em>: <a href="https://github.com/squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer/blob/master/src/Standards/Squiz/Sniffs/WhiteSpace/SemicolonSpacingSniff.php" class="Link--external" rel="noopener noreferrer"><code>Squiz.WhiteSpace.SemicolonSpacing</code></a></p>
<h2><a id="do-not-add-whitespace-at-start-or-end-of-a-file-or-end-of-a-line" href="#do-not-add-whitespace-at-start-or-end-of-a-file-or-end-of-a-line" class="Permalink" aria-hidden="true" title="Permalink">#</a>Do not add whitespace at start or end of a file or end of a line</h2>
<p>Whitespace at the end of lines or at the start or end of a file is invisible to the reader and absolutely unnecessary. Thus it must be removed.</p>
<p><em>Reference</em>: <a href="https://github.com/squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer/blob/master/src/Standards/Squiz/Sniffs/WhiteSpace/SuperfluousWhitespaceSniff.php" class="Link--external" rel="noopener noreferrer"><code>Squiz.WhiteSpace.SuperfluousWhitespace</code></a></p>
<h1><a id="indentation" href="#indentation" class="Permalink" aria-hidden="true" title="Permalink">#</a>Indentation</h1>
<h2><a id="use-spaces-indentation" href="#use-spaces-indentation" class="Permalink" aria-hidden="true" title="Permalink">#</a>Use spaces indentation</h2>
<h1><a id="maximum-line-length" href="#maximum-line-length" class="Permalink" aria-hidden="true" title="Permalink">#</a>Maximum Line Length</h1>
<p>180</p>
<h1><a id="strings" href="#strings" class="Permalink" aria-hidden="true" title="Permalink">#</a>Strings</h1>
<h2><a id="whenever-possible-use-single-quote-strings" href="#whenever-possible-use-single-quote-strings" class="Permalink" aria-hidden="true" title="Permalink">#</a>Whenever possible use single quote strings</h2>
<p>PHP supports both single quote strings and double quote strings. For pure text you must use single quote strings for consistency. Double quote strings are only allowed for special characters (i.e. <code>"\n"</code>) or inlined variables (i.e. <code>"My name is {$name}"</code>);</p>
<details><summary>Example</summary><div><br>
<p><strong>Bad</strong></p>
<pre><code class="language-PHP">echo "Hello World!";
</code></pre>
<p><strong>Good</strong></p>
<pre><code class="language-PHP">echo 'Hello World!';
</code></pre>
</div></details><br>
<p><em>Reference</em>: <a href="https://github.com/squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer/blob/master/src/Standards/Squiz/Sniffs/Strings/DoubleQuoteUsageSniff.php" class="Link--external" rel="noopener noreferrer"><code>Squiz.Strings.DoubleQuoteUsage</code></a></p>
<h2><a id="add-spaces-around-the-concatenation-operator" href="#add-spaces-around-the-concatenation-operator" class="Permalink" aria-hidden="true" title="Permalink">#</a>Add spaces around the concatenation operator</h2>
<p>The concatenation operator should have one space on both sides in order to improve readability.</p>
<details><summary>Example</summary><div><br>
<p><strong>Bad</strong></p>
<pre><code class="language-PHP">$text = $greeting.' '.$name.'!';
</code></pre>
<p><strong>Good</strong> (add spaces)</p>
<pre><code class="language-PHP">$text = $greeting . ' ' . $name . '!';
</code></pre>
