Important information about this release:

At long last... WordPressCS 3.0.0 is here.

This is an important release which makes significant changes to improve the accuracy, performance, stability and maintainability of all sniffs, as well as making WordPressCS much better at handling modern PHP.

WordPressCS 3.0.0 contains breaking changes, both for people using ignore annotations, people maintaining custom rulesets, as well as for sniff developers who maintain a custom PHPCS standard based on WordPressCS.

If you are an end-user or maintain a custom WordPressCS based ruleset, please start by reading the Upgrade Guide to WordPressCS 3.0.0 for end-users which lists the most important changes and contains a step by step guide for upgrading.

If you are a maintainer of an external standard based on WordPressCS and any of your custom sniffs are based on or extend WordPressCS sniffs, please read the Upgrade Guide to WordPressCS 3.0.0 for Developers.

In all cases, please read the complete changelog carefully before you upgrade.

Added
  • Dependencies on the following packages: PHPCSUtils, PHPCSExtra and the [Composer PHPCS plugin].
  • A best effort has been made to add support for the new PHP syntaxes/features to all WordPressCS native sniffs and utility functions (or to verify/improve existing support).
    While support in external sniffs used by WordPressCS has not be exhaustively verified, a lot of work has been done to try and add support for new PHP syntaxes to those as well.
    WordPressCS native sniffs and utilities have received fixes for the following syntaxes:
    • PHP 7.2
      • Keyed lists.
    • PHP 7.3
      • Flexible heredoc/nowdoc (providing the PHPCS scan is run on PHP 7.3 or higher).
      • Trailing commas in function calls.
    • PHP 7.4
      • Arrow functions.
      • Array unpacking in array expressions.
      • Numeric literals with underscores.
      • Typed properties.
      • Null coalesce equals operator.
    • PHP 8.0
      • Nullsafe object operators.
      • Match expressions.
      • Named arguments in function calls.
      • Attributes.
      • Union types // including supporting the false and null types.
      • Constructor property promotion.
      • $object::class
      • Throw as an expression.
    • PHP 8.1
      • Enumerations.
      • Explicit octal notation.
      • Final class constants
      • First class callables.
      • Intersection types.
    • PHP 8.2
      • Constants in traits.
  • New WordPress.CodeAnalysis.AssignmentInTernaryCondition sniff to the WordPress-Core ruleset which partially replaces the removed WordPress.CodeAnalysis.AssignmentInCondition sniff.
  • New WordPress.WhiteSpace.ObjectOperatorSpacing sniff which replaces the use of the Squiz.WhiteSpace.ObjectOperatorSpacing sniff in the WordPress-Core ruleset.
  • New WordPress.WP.ClassNameCase sniff to the WordPress-Core ruleset, to check that any class name references to WP native classes and classes from external dependencies use the case of the class as per the class declaration.
  • New WordPress.WP.Capabilities sniff to the WordPress-Extra ruleset. This sniff checks that valid capabilities are used, not roles or user levels. Props, amongst others, to [@​grappler] and [@​khacoder].
    Custom capabilities can be added to the sniff via a custom_capabilities ruleset property.
    The sniff also supports the minimum_wp_version property to allow the sniff to accurately determine how the use of deprecated capabilities should be flagged.
  • The WordPress.WP.CapitalPDangit sniff contains a new check to verify the correct spelling of WordPress in namespace names.
  • The WordPress.WP.I18n sniff contains a new EmptyTextDomain error code for an empty text string being passed as the text domain, which overrules the default value of the parameter and renders a text untranslatable.
  • The WordPress.DB.PreparedSQLPlaceholders sniff has been expanded with additional checks for the correct use of the %i placeholder, which was introduced in WP 6.2. Props [@​craigfrancis].
    The sniff now also supports the minimum_wp_version ruleset property to determine whether the %i placeholder can be used.
  • WordPress-Core: the following additional sniffs (or select error codes from these sniffs) have been added to the ruleset: Generic.CodeAnalysis.AssignmentInCondition, Generic.CodeAnalysis.EmptyPHPStatement (replaces the WordPressCS native sniff), Generic.VersionControl.GitMergeConflict, Generic.WhiteSpace.IncrementDecrementSpacing, Generic.WhiteSpace.LanguageConstructSpacing, Generic.WhiteSpace.SpreadOperatorSpacingAfter, PSR2.Classes.ClassDeclaration, PSR2.Methods.FunctionClosingBrace, PSR12.Classes.ClassInstantiation, PSR12.Files.FileHeader (select error codes only), PSR12.Functions.NullableTypeDeclaration, PSR12.Functions.ReturnTypeDeclaration, PSR12.Traits.UseDeclaration, Squiz.Functions.MultiLineFunctionDeclaration (replaces part of the WordPress.WhiteSpace.ControlStructureSpacing sniff), Modernize.FunctionCalls.Dirname, NormalizedArrays.Arrays.ArrayBraceSpacing (replaces part of the WordPress.Arrays.ArrayDeclarationSpacing sniff), NormalizedArrays.Arrays.CommaAfterLast (replaces the WordPressCS native sniff), Universal.Classes.ModifierKeywordOrder, Universal.Classes.RequireAnonClassParentheses, Universal.Constants.LowercaseClassResolutionKeyword, Universal.Constants.ModifierKeywordOrder, Universal.Constants.UppercaseMagicConstants, Universal.Namespaces.DisallowCurlyBraceSyntax, Universal.Namespaces.DisallowDeclarationWithoutName, Universal.Namespaces.OneDeclarationPerFile, Universal.NamingConventions.NoReservedKeywordParameterNames, Universal.Operators.DisallowShortTernary (replaces the WordPressCS native sniff), Universal.Operators.DisallowStandalonePostIncrementDecrement, Universal.Operators.StrictComparisons (replaces the WordPressCS native sniff), Universal.Operators.TypeSeparatorSpacing, Universal.UseStatements.DisallowMixedGroupUse, Universal.UseStatements.KeywordSpacing, Universal.UseStatements.LowercaseFunctionConst, Universal.UseStatements.NoLeadingBackslash, Universal.UseStatements.NoUselessAliases, Universal.WhiteSpace.CommaSpacing, Universal.WhiteSpace.DisallowInlineTabs (replaces the WordPressCS native sniff), Universal.WhiteSpace.PrecisionAlignment (replaces the WordPressCS native sniff), Universal.WhiteSpace.AnonClassKeywordSpacing.
  • WordPress-Extra: the following additional sniffs have been added to the ruleset: Generic.CodeAnalysis.UnusedFunctionParameter, Universal.Arrays.DuplicateArrayKey, Universal.CodeAnalysis.ConstructorDestructorReturn, Universal.CodeAnalysis.ForeachUniqueAssignment, Universal.CodeAnalysis.NoEchoSprintf, Universal.CodeAnalysis.StaticInFinalClass, Universal.ControlStructures.DisallowLonelyIf, Universal.Files.SeparateFunctionsFromOO.
  • WordPress.Utils.I18nTextDomainFixer: the load_script_textdomain() function to the functions the sniff looks for.
  • WordPress.WP.AlternativeFunctions: the following PHP native functions have been added to the sniff and will now be flagged when used: unlink() (in a new unlink group) , rename() (in a new rename group), chgrp(), chmod(), chown(), is_writable() is_writeable(), mkdir(), rmdir(), touch(), fputs() (in the existing file_system_operations group, which was previously named file_system_read). Props [@​sandeshjangam] and [@​JDGrimes].
  • The PHPUnit_Adapter_TestCase class to the list of "known test (case) classes".
  • The antispambot() function to the list of known "formatting" functions.
  • The esc_xml() and wp_kses_one_attr() functions to the list of known "escaping" functions.
  • The wp_timezone_choice() and wp_readonly() functions to the list of known "auto escaping" functions.
  • The sanitize_url() and wp_kses_one_attr() functions to the list of known "sanitizing" functions.
  • Metrics for blank lines at the start/end of a control structure body to the WordPress.WhiteSpace.ControlStructureSpacing sniff. These can be displayed using --report=info when the blank_line_check property has been set to true.
  • End-user documentation to the following new and pre-existing sniffs: WordPress.DateTime.RestrictedFunctions, WordPress.NamingConventions.PrefixAllGlobals (props [@​Ipstenu]), WordPress.PHP.StrictInArray (props [@​marconmartins]), WordPress.PHP.YodaConditions (props [@​Ipstenu]), WordPress.WhiteSpace.ControlStructureSpacing (props [@​ckanitz]), WordPress.WhiteSpace.ObjectOperatorSpacing, WordPress.WhiteSpace.OperatorSpacing (props [@​ckanitz]), WordPress.WP.CapitalPDangit (props [@​NielsdeBlaauw]), WordPress.WP.Capabilities, WordPress.WP.ClassNameCase, WordPress.WP.EnqueueResourceParameters (props [@​NielsdeBlaauw]).
    This documentation can be exposed via the PHP_CodeSniffer --generator=... command-line argument.
    Note: all sniffs which have been added from PHPCSExtra (Universal, Modernize, NormalizedArrays sniffs) are also fully documented.
Added (internal/dev-only)
  • New Helper classes:
    • ArrayWalkingFunctionsHelper

Changed
  • As of this version, installation via Composer is the only supported manner of installation.
    Installing in a different manner (git clone/PEAR/PHAR) is still possible, but no longer supported.
  • The minimum required PHP_CodeSniffer version to 3.7.2 (was 3.3.1).
  • Composer: the package will now identify itself as a static analysis tool.
  • The PHP filter, libxml and XMLReader extensions are now explicitly required.
    It is recommended to also have the Mbstring and iconv extensions enabled for the most accurate results.
  • The release branch has been renamed from master to main.
  • The following sniffs have been moved from WordPress-Extra to WordPress-Core: the Generic.Files.OneObjectStructurePerFile (also changed from warning to error),
    Generic.PHP.BacktickOperator, PEAR.Files.IncludingFile, PSR2.Classes.PropertyDeclaration, PSR2.Methods.MethodDeclaration, Squiz.Scope.MethodScope, Squiz.WhiteSpace.ScopeKeywordSpacing sniffs. Props, amongst others, to [@​desrosj].
  • WordPress-Core: The Generic.Arrays.DisallowShortArraySyntax sniff has been replaced by the Universal.Arrays.DisallowShortArraySyntax sniff.
    The new sniff will recognize short lists correctly and ignore them.
  • WordPress-Core: The Generic.Files.EndFileNewline sniff has been replaced by the more comprehensive PSR2.Files.EndFileNewline sniff.
  • A number of sniffs support setting the minimum WP version for the code being scanned.
    This could be done in two different ways:
    1. By setting the minimum_supported_version property for each sniff from a ruleset.
    2. By passing --runtime-set minimum_supported_wp_version #.# on the command line.
      The names of the property and the CLI setting have now been aligned to both use minimum_wp_version as the name.
      Both ways of passing the value are still supported.
  • WordPress.NamingConventions.PrefixAllGlobals: the custom_test_class_whitelist property has been renamed to custom_test_classes.
  • WordPress.NamingConventions.ValidVariableName: the customPropertiesWhitelist property has been renamed to allowed_custom_properties.
  • WordPress.PHP.NoSilencedErrors: the custom_whitelist property has been renamed to customAllowedFunctionsList.
  • WordPress.PHP.NoSilencedErrors: the use_default_whitelist property has been renamed to usePHPFunctionsList.
  • WordPress.WP.GlobalVariablesOverride: the custom_test_class_whitelist property has been renamed to custom_test_classes.
  • Sniffs are now able to handle fully qualified names for custom test classes provided via a custom_test_classes (previously custom_test_class_whitelist) ruleset property.
  • The default value for minimum_supported_wp_version, as used by a number of sniffs detecting usage of deprecated WP features, has been updated to 6.0.
  • WordPress.NamingConventions.PrefixAllGlobals now takes new pluggable constants into account as introduced in WordPress up to WP 6.3.
  • WordPress.NamingConventions.ValidPostTypeSlug now takes new reserved post types into account as introduced in WordPress up to WP 6.3.
  • WordPress.WP.DeprecatedClasses now detects classes deprecated in WordPress up to WP 6.3.
  • WordPress.WP.DeprecatedFunctions now detects functions deprecated in WordPress up to WP 6.3.
  • WordPress.WP.DeprecatedParameters now detects parameters deprecated in WordPress up to WP 6.3.
  • WordPress.WP.DeprecatedParameterValues now detects parameter values deprecated in WordPress up to WP 6.3.
  • WordPress.Utils.I18nTextDomainFixer: the lists of recognized plugin and theme header tags has been updated based on the current information in the plugin and theme handbooks.
  • WordPress.WP.AlternativeFunctions: the "group" name file_system_read, which can be used with the exclude property, has been renamed to file_system_operations.
    This also means that the error codes for individual functions flagged via that group have changed from WordPress.WP.AlternativeFunctions.file_system_read_* to WordPress.WP.AlternativeFunctions.file_system_operations_*.
  • WordPress.WP.CapitalPDangit: the Misspelled error code has been split into two error codes - MisspelledInText and MisspelledInComment - to allow for more modular exclusions/selectively turning off the auto-fixer for the sniff.
  • WordPress.WP.I18n no longer throws both the MissingSingularPlaceholder and the MismatchedPlaceholders for the same code, as the errors have an overlap.
  • WordPress-Core: previously only the spacing around commas in arrays, function declarations and function calls was checked. Now, the spacing around commas will be checked in all contexts.
  • WordPress.Arrays.ArrayKeySpacingRestrictions: a new SpacesBetweenBrackets error code has been introduced for the spacing between square brackets for array assignments without key. Previously, this would throw a NoSpacesAroundArrayKeys error with an unclear error message.
  • WordPress.Files.FileName now recognizes more word separators, meaning that files using other word separators than underscores will now be flagged for not using hyphenation.
  • WordPress.Files.FileName now checks if a file contains a test class and if so, will bow out.
    This change was made to prevent issues with PHPUnit 9.1+, which strongly prefers PSR4-style file names.
    Whether something is test class or not is based on a pre-defined list of "known" test case classes which can be extended and, optionally, a list of user provided test case classes provided via setting the custom_test_classes property in a custom ruleset or the complete test directory can be excluded via a custom ruleset.
  • WordPress.NamingConventions.PrefixAllGlobals now allows for pluggable functions and classes, which should not be prefixed when "plugged".
  • WordPress.PHP.NoSilencedErrors: the metric, which displays in the info report, has been renamed from "whitelisted function call" to "silencing allowed function call".
  • WordPress.Security.EscapeOutput now flags the use of get_search_query( false ) when generating output (as the false turns off the escaping).
  • WordPress.Security.EscapeOutput now also examines parameters passed for exception creation in throw statements and expressions for correct escaping.
  • WordPress.Security.ValidatedSanitizedInput now examines all superglobal (except for $GLOBALS). Previously, the $_SESSION and $_ENV superglobals would not be flagged as needing validation/sanitization.
  • WordPress.WP.I18n now recognizes the new PHP 8.0+ h and H type specifiers.
  • WordPress.WP.PostsPerPage has improved recognition for numbers prefixed with a unary operator and non-decimal numbers.
  • WordPress.DB.PreparedSQL will identify more precisely the code which is problematic.
  • WordPress.DB.PreparedSQLPlaceholders will identify more precisely the code which is problematic.
  • WordPress.DB.SlowDBQuery will identify more precisely the code which is problematic.
  • WordPress.Security.PluginMenuSlug: the error will now be thrown more precisely on the code which triggered the error. Depending on code layout, this may mean that an error will now be thrown on a different line.
  • WordPress.WP.DiscouragedConstants: the error will now be thrown more precisely on the code which triggered the error. Depending on code layout, this may mean that an error will now be thrown on a different line.
  • WordPress.WP.EnqueuedResourceParameters: the error will now be thrown more precisely on the code which triggered the error. Depending on code layout, this may mean that an error will now be thrown on a different line.
  • WordPress.WP.I18n: the errors will now be thrown more precisely on the code which triggered the error. Depending on code layout, this may mean that an error will now be thrown on a different line.
  • WordPress.WP.PostsPerPage will identify more precisely the code which is problematic.
  • WordPress.PHP.TypeCasts.UnsetFound has been changed from a warning to an error as the (unset) cast is no longer available in PHP 8.0 and higher.
  • WordPress.WP.EnqueuedResourceParameters.MissingVersion has been changed from an error to a warning.
  • WordPress.Arrays.ArrayKeySpacingRestrictions: improved the clarity of the error messages for the TooMuchSpaceBeforeKey and TooMuchSpaceAfterKey error codes.
  • WordPress.CodeAnalysis.EscapedNotTranslated: improved the clarity of the error message.
  • WordPress.PHP.IniSet: improved the clarity of the error messages for the sniff.
  • WordPress.PHP.PregQuoteDelimiter: improved the clarity of the error message for the Missing error code.
  • WordPress.PHP.RestrictedFunctions: improved the clarity of the error messages for the sniff.
  • WordPress.PHP.RestrictedPHPFunctions: improved the error message for the create_function_create_function error code.
  • WordPress.PHP.TypeCast: improved the clarity of the error message for the UnsetFound error code. It will no longer advise assigning null.
  • WordPress.Security.SafeRedirect: improved the clarity of the error message. (very minor)
  • WordPress.Security.ValidatedSanitizedInput: improved the clarity of the error messages for the MissingUnslash error code.
  • WordPress.WhiteSpace.CastStructureSpacing: improved the clarity of the error message for the NoSpaceBeforeOpenParenthesis error code.
  • WordPress.WP.I18n: improved the clarity of the error messages for the sniff.
  • WordPress.WP.I18n: the error messages will now use the correct parameter name.
  • The error messages for the WordPress.CodeAnalysis.EscapedNotTranslated, WordPress.NamingConventions.PrefixAllGlobals, WordPress.NamingConventions.ValidPostTypeSlug, WordPress.PHP.IniSet, and the WordPress.PHP.NoSilencedErrors sniff will now display the code sample found without comments and extranuous whitespace.
  • Various updates to the README, the example ruleset and other documentation. Props, amongst others, to [@​Luc45], [@​slaFFik].
  • Continuous Integration checks are now run via GitHub Actions. Props [@​desrosj].
  • Various other CI/QA improvements.
  • Code coverage will now be monitored via CodeCov.
  • All sniffs are now also being tested against PHP 8.0, 8.1, 8.2 and 8.3 for consistent sniff results.
Changed (internal/dev-only)
  • All non-abstract classes in WordPressCS are now final with the exception of the following four classes which are known to be extended by external PHPCS standards build on top of WordPressCS: WordPress.NamingConventions.ValidHookName, WordPress.Security.EscapeOutput,WordPress.Security.NonceVerification, WordPress.Security.ValidatedSanitizedInput.
  • Most remaining utility properties and methods, previously contained in the WordPressCS\WordPress\Sniff class, have been moved to dedicated Helper classes and traits or, in some cases, to the sniff class using them.
    As this change is only relevant for extenders, the full details of these moves are not included in this changelog, but can be found in the Developers Upgrade Guide to WordPressCS 3.0.0
  • A few customizable public properties, which were used by multiple sniffs, have been moved from *Sniff classes to traits. Again, the full details of these moves are not included in this changelog, but can be found in the Developers Upgrade Guide to WordPressCS 3.0.0
  • A number of non-public properties in sniffs have been renamed.
    As this change is only relevant for extenders, the full details of these renames are not included in this changelog, but can be found in the Developers Upgrade Guide to WordPressCS 3.0.0
  • AbstractFunctionRestrictionsSniff: The whitelist key in the $groups array property has been renamed to allow.
  • The WordPress.NamingConventions.ValidFunctionName sniff no longer extends the similar PHPCS native PEAR sniff.
Removed
  • Support for the deprecated, old-style WordPressCS native ignore annotations. Use the PHPCS native selective ignore annotations instead.
  • The following WordPressCS native sniffs have been removed:
    • The WordPress.Arrays.CommaAfterArrayItem sniff (replaced by the NormalizedArrays.Arrays.CommaAfterLast and the Universal.WhiteSpace.CommaSpacing sniffs).
    • The WordPress.Classes.ClassInstantiation sniff (replaced by the PSR12.Classes.ClassInstantiation, Universal.Classes.RequireAnonClassParentheses and Universal.WhiteSpace.AnonClassKeywordSpacing sniffs).

  • WordPress.Arrays.ArrayDeclarationSpacing: array brace spacing checks (replaced by the NormalizedArrays.Arrays.ArrayBraceSpacing sniff).
  • WordPress.WhiteSpace.ControlStructureSpacing: checks for the spacing for function declarations (replaced by the Squiz.Functions.MultiLineFunctionDeclaration sniff).

    Exclude the WordPress.WP.I18n.MissingTranslatorsComment and the WordPress.WP.I18n.TranslatorsCommentWrongStyle error codes instead.
  • WordPressCS will no longer check for assigning the return value of an object instantiation by reference.
