PHP_CodeSniffer tokenizes PHP, JavaScript and CSS files and detects violations of a defined set of coding standards.
To check a file against the PEAR coding standard, simply specify the file's location.
docker container run --rm -it -v "$(pwd)":/mnt mgilbert/phpcs phpcs myfile.phpOr, if you wish to check an entire directory instead of a file.
docker container run --rm -it -v "$(pwd)":/mnt mgilbert/phpcs phpcs .
