phpstan-baseline-guard

The wonderful static analysis tool PHPStan has a baseline feature. With that, you can generate a file containing all existing errors in your code. These errors than get ignored in further runs of PHPStan.

Using the baseline feature, you can make sure, that every new code you introduce can get analyzed on a high PHPStan level without having to fix all errors in your existing (legacy) code first.

You typically do not want to add more errors to you baseline, once generated. phpstan-baseline-guard is a small tool to make sure, you do not do that.

Installation

Install via Composer

composer require --dev leovie/phpstan-baseline-guard

Usage

Given, you have generated a PHPStan baseline file /foo/baseline.neon

  1. Run phpstan-baseline-guard with only the absolute path to your baseline file, e.g.
phpstan-baseline-guard /foo/baseline.neon

You will get an output like

 [INFO] Your baseline contains 20 ignored errors. 
  1. Use the count of ignored errors from the first command run and run phpstan-baseline-guard with a fixed max count of ignored errors in the baseline, e.g.
phpstan-baseline-guard /foo/baseline.neon --max-ignored-errors=20

You will get an output like

 [INFO] Your baseline contains 20 ignored errors. - OK

Now, if you add more ignored errors to your baseline and run the same command again, you will get an output like

 [ERROR] Your baseline contains 25 ignored errors. - That's more than allowed.

The command fails in that case and prevents you from adding more errors to your baseline file than you explicitly allow.

CI

You can add phpstan-baseline-guard to your CI pipeline. The command will fail, when a developer tries to add more ignored errors to the baseline.
