php-coveralls: Send coverage information to Coveralls with a specific config.
$ php-coveralls --config ${path-to--coveralls-yml}
try on your machine

The command "php-coveralls --config ${path-to--coveralls-yml}" is used to set up and configure the Coveralls integration for a PHP project.

Here's a breakdown of the components of the command:

  • "php-coveralls" is the command-line tool that allows you to submit code coverage reports to the Coveralls service. It's typically a separate package that needs to be installed as a dependency.
  • "--config" is a flag indicating that you want to provide a configuration file for the command.
  • "${path-to--coveralls-yml}" is a placeholder that represents the actual file path to the configuration file. You should replace it with the correct path on your system.

The configuration file, usually named ".coveralls.yml", contains settings and information needed by the php-coveralls tool. It could specify which source files and tests to include for coverage analysis, provide environment variables, and configuration options for different CI (Continuous Integration) platforms.

By running this command with the specified configuration file, you are telling the php-coveralls tool to use the settings defined in the provided file to report code coverage metrics to the Coveralls service.
