These are the coding standards for Elgg. All core development, bundled
plugins, and tickets attached to Trac are expected to be in this format.
* Unix line endings
* Hard tabs, 4 character tab spacing.
* No shortcut tags ( <? or <?= or <% )
* PHPDoc comments on functions and classes (including methods and declared
members).
* Mandatory wrapped {}s around any code blocks.
Bad:
if (true)
foreach($arr as $elem)
echo $elem;
Good:
if (true) {
foreach($arr as $elem) {
echo $elem;
}
}
* Name standalone functions using underscore_character().
* Name classes using CamelCase() and methods using lowerCamelCase().
* Name globals and constants in ALL_CAPS (FALSE, TRUE, NULL, ACCESS_FRIENDS,
$CONFIG).
* Space functions like_this($required, $optional = TRUE)
* Space keywords and constructs like this: if (false) { ... }
* Include variables in strings with double quotes instead of concatenating:
Bad:
echo 'Hello, ' . $name . '! How are you?';
Good:
echo "Hello, $name! How are you?";
* Line lengths should be reasonable. If you are writing lines over 100
characters, please revise the code.
* Use slash-style comments. (// and /* */)
* Preferred no closing ?> tag at EOF. (Avoids problems with trailing
whitespace.)
