The command "phpcs ${path-to-directory}" is used to run the PHP CodeSniffer tool on a specified directory.
Explanation of the command parts:
- "phpcs" refers to the PHP CodeSniffer command.
- "${path-to-directory}" should be replaced with the actual path to the directory you want to analyze. It can be a relative or absolute path.
- When you execute the command, PHP CodeSniffer will scan the specified directory for PHP files and check them against coding standards defined in rulesets. It will generate a report indicating any violations of the coding standards.
Note: Make sure you have PHP CodeSniffer installed on your system before running this command.
