Configuring phpfmt for Sublime Text and PSR Coding Standards

Installation

1. Use Homebrew to install PHP 5.5:
   • brew install php55
2. Install the plugin through Package Manager:
   • In Sublime Text press ctrl+shift+P
   • Choose Package Control: Install Package
   • Choose phpfmt
3. Update your preferences to adhere to PSR standards:
   • Preferences > Package Settings > phpfmt > Settings - User
   • Paste the code below and save

Settings

{
    "psr1":false,
    "psr2":true,
    "php_bin":"/usr/local/bin/php",
    "indent_with_space":true,
    "format_on_save":true,
    "disable_auto_align":true
}

This will auto-format your code to PSR standards every time you save a PHP file.

Notes

• If needed, run which php to update the location of your PHP binary.
• psr1 forces text after PHP open tags to a new line, meaning you can't neatly add echo statements into your markup. Planning to create an issue and pull request. In the meantime, just set to false.
