PHP static code analysis - disabling false-positive warnings

Question

On our CI servers we run PHP codesniffer and phpmd. Some of issues raised are false-positive. How can I disable certain parts of PHP file to be analysed by those (as @SupressWarning(...) in Java) ? Thanks!

Answer 1

Taken from the documentation. First hit after doing a Google search for disable parts of a file codesniffer php

Ignoring parts of a file using comments


$xmlPackage = new XMLPackage;
// @codingStandardsIgnoreStart
$xmlPackage['error_code'] = get_default_error_code_value();
// @codingStandardsIgnoreEnd
$xmlPackage->send();

Is this what you mean?

As for PHP-MD...

http://phpmd.org/documentation/suppress-warnings.html

Two clicks from

I'm not normally the kind to say this, but it would be much quicker for you if you read the documentation (which it seems you did, as I edited this answer!)

Answer 2

For PHPMD it is: @SuppressWarnings(PHPMD) @SuppressWarnings(PHPMD.UnusedLocalVariable)
