Do you want to make it easier to keep your PHP code up to date with the latest standards and using the latest features?<\/p>\n\n

Rector is a tool for refactoring PHP code and it has presets for different versions of PHP.<\/p>\n\n

It can refactor your code to follow best practices such as using early returns, having private methods by default and enabling strict typing - making code cleaner whilst using the latest PHP features.<\/p>\n\n

Once installed, it can be executed and will make changes to your files, but what about keeping it up to date going forward?<\/p>\n\n

Why not add rector --dry-run<\/code> to your CI pipeline and have it checked automatically?<\/p>\n\n

Then, if code is committed that doesn't match the latest standards, the pipeline will fail and the code can be updated.<\/p>\n\n

This will ensure the code is always up to date and you won't be stuck on old or unsupported PHP versions.<\/p>\n\n ", "format": "full_html", "processed": "\n
