parallel-lint: Lint a directory using the specified number of parallel processes.
$ parallel-lint -j ${processes} ${path-to-directory}
try on your machine
This command is using the "parallel-lint" tool to perform linting (code analysis) in parallel on a given directory. Let's break it down:
- "parallel-lint": This is the name of the command or tool being used. It is typically used for linting PHP code.
- "-j ${processes}": This argument specifies the number of parallel processes to be used for linting. The ${processes} is a placeholder that should be replaced with the desired number, indicating how many processes should be used concurrently. Increasing the number can speed up the linting process, but it also requires more system resources.
- "${path-to-directory}": This is the path to the directory where the linting should be performed. It could be a relative or absolute path, depending on the desired location.
When the command is executed with the specified arguments, the parallel-lint tool will start analyzing the PHP code in the provided directory. The linting results will be displayed, pointing out any potential coding issues or style violations found within the PHP files. The parallel execution allows for faster linting by leveraging multiple processes.

never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
