PHPStan Friendly Formatter Example

🎯 Motivation

Ever felt lost in a sea of file paths and line numbers? We've been there! That's why we created this formatter to:

  • Instantly pinpoint what's wrong in your code
  • Reduce mental overhead when interpreting error messages
  • Accelerate your debugging process

πŸš€ Getting Started

  1. You may use Composer to install this package as a development dependency.
composer require --dev yamadashy/phpstan-friendly-formatter
  1. Register error formatter into your phpstan.neon or phpstan.neon.dist:
includes:
    - ./vendor/yamadashy/phpstan-friendly-formatter/extension.neon
  1. Finally, set the errorFormat parameter:
parameters:
    errorFormat: friendly

Optional: Simplify Your Workflow

If you want to make it simpler, setting scripts in composer.json as follows:

{
    "scripts": {
        "analyze": "phpstan analyze --error-format friendly"
    }
}

You can run a short command like this:

composer analyze

βš™οΈ Configuration Options

You can customize in your phpstan.neon:

parameters:
    friendly:
        lineBefore: 3  # Number of lines to display before error line (default: 2)
        lineAfter: 3   # Number of lines to display after error line (default: 2)
        editorUrl: 'phpstorm://open?file=%%file%%&line=%%line%%'  # Editor URL (default: null)

Editor URL Configuration

The editorUrl option allows you to create clickable links in terminal output that open files directly in your editor.

Available placeholders:

  • %%file%% - Absolute file path
  • %%relFile%% - Relative file path (useful for Docker/container environments)
  • %%line%% - Line number

Editor examples:

parameters:
    friendly:
        # PhpStorm / IntelliJ IDEA
        editorUrl: 'phpstorm://open?file=%%file%%&line=%%line%%'

        # VSCode (with absolute path)
        editorUrl: 'vscode://file/%%file%%:%%line%%'

        # VSCode (with relative path - for Docker environments, requires base path)
        editorUrl: 'vscode://file//your/local/project/path/%%relFile%%:%%line%%'

        # Sublime Text
        editorUrl: 'subl://open?url=file://%%file%%&line=%%line%%'

Note: When running PHPStan in Docker or other virtualized environments, use %%relFile%% instead of %%file%% to get the relative path. For VSCode, you may need to prepend your local project path since VSCode requires absolute paths.
