Enforce Code Style Configured using data collected by PHP Collector. Automatically check devex build and ci standards on every PR.
How PHP Collector Powers This Guardrail
The PHP Collector gathers metadata from your languages, build systems. This data flows into Lunar's Component JSON, where the Code Style Configured guardrail evaluates it against your standards.
When enabled, this check runs automatically on every PR and in AI coding workflows, providing real-time enforcement with actionable feedback.
Quick Start Configuration
Add both the collector and policy to your lunar-config.yml to enable this guardrail.
# Step 1: Enable the PHP Collector
collectors:
- uses: github://earthly/lunar-lib/collectors/php@v1.0.5
# with: ...
# Step 2: Enable the PHP Project Guardrails
policies:
- uses: github://earthly/lunar-lib/policies/php@v1.0.5
include: [code-style-configured]
# with: ...What PHP Collector Collects
This collector gathers the following data that the Code Style Configured guardrail evaluates.
cicd
Records every PHP command executed in CI pipelines along with the PHP runtime version. Writes command strings and version info to .lang.php.cicd for audit trails and build reproducibility analysis.
composer-cicd
Records every Composer command executed in CI pipelines along with the Composer version. Writes command strings and version info to .lang.php.composer.cicd for audit trails and dependency management.
project
Analyzes PHP project structure by detecting composer.json, composer.lock, vendor directory, and tool configuration (PHPUnit, PHPStan, Psalm, PHP-CS-Fixer, PHP_CodeSniffer). Extracts the PHP version constraint. Writes PHP-level metadata to .lang.php and Composer metadata to .lang.php.composer.
dependencies
Extracts direct and dev dependencies from composer.json. Captures package name and version constraint for each dependency. Writes the dependency list to .lang.php.dependencies.
