Run PHP Code Beautifier and Fixer
$ php vendor/bin/phpcbf
try on your machine

The command "php vendor/bin/phpcbf" is used to execute a specific utility called PHP Code Beautifier and Fixer (PHPCBF) in a PHP project.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • "php" specifies that the PHP interpreter should execute the following script or program.
  • "vendor/bin/phpcbf" is the path to the executable file for PHPCBF, which is located within the "vendor" directory of the PHP project.

PHPCBF is a tool used for automatically correcting or beautifying PHP code according to a defined coding standard or set of rules. It analyzes the PHP files in a project and updates them to conform to the specified coding style.

Running the "php vendor/bin/phpcbf" command will call the PHPCBF utility and process the PHP code in the project directory, making necessary changes to the coding style based on the rules defined in the configuration file (if any).
