Phanpy is an open source PHP code analysis tool that helps developers find potential bugs and security issues. It provides static analysis to detect coding issues, identify security risks, enforce style rules, and measure code complexity.
Phanpy is an open source PHP static analysis tool developed by Rasmus Lerdorf originally written in PHP. It helps developers analyze their PHP codebases to detect bugs, potential security issues and coding errors by using static analysis. Some key capabilities of Phanpy include:
- Detecting common issues like syntax errors, undefined variables/functions, unused variables, compatibility issues, redundant/dead code
- Enforcing coding conventions and standards like PSR-2
- Estimating code complexity
- Spotting potential security vulnerabilities like SQL injections, XSS, etc.
- Analyzing undeclared variables and classes
- Integration with IDEs like VS Code, Vim, Emacs
By providing advanced static analysis capabilities, Phanpy aims to improve code quality and security for PHP projects. It can complement other QA tools by analyzing code without executing it. With options for configuring custom rulesets, Phanpy can be tailored to different projects. Overall, it helps catch issues early, enforce best practices, and reduce technical debt in PHP codebases.
