PHP_CodeSniffer 1.2.1 released

PHP_CodeSniffer version 1.2.1 has just been uploaded to PEAR and is now available to install. It's been exactly 3 months since the 1.2.0 release and plenty of changes have made it into this version, including a few new features as well.

Some of the highlights are:

  • A new report type called svnblame that allows you to see which developers are causing the most errors
  • The ability to set the report width for all reports, which is really useful for developers with larger screens
  • The addition of @codingStandardsIgnore comments to tell PHP_CodeSniffer to ignore parts of a file or the entire file

There have also been some great changes made to the CSS and JavaScript tokenizers to improve their stability.

All new features have been fully documented and are available on the PHP_CodeSniffer documentation page.

You can view the full changelog on the PHP_CodeSniffer download page.
