README

Lint cron files. Based on the work of @Dave13h from https://github.com/Dave13h/php-censor-cronlint-plugin, just the PHPCensor aspect removed and made into a standalone package.

Installation

composer require --dev jpi/cron-linter

Add a .cronlinter.yml file to your project root that specifies a list of cron files to lint.

files:
  - /cron-1
  - /cron-2

File paths can also include glob patterns to match multiple files at once.

files:
  - /etc/cron.d/*
  - /cron.*

Then run php vendor/bin/lintcron, which will list any errors found in the specified cron files. You can use a different config file location using the --config-file option.

You can also specify files to be linted using the --files option, providing a comma-separated list of file paths.

Or if you want to do it programmatically on files or content.

// Lint cron files
// $files is an array of file paths for cron files to check
// $baseDir (optional) is a string containing the base directory path for all file paths
$errors = \JPI\CronLinter::lintFiles($files, $baseDir);

// Lint cron content directly
// $expression is a string containing one or more cron expressions (one per line)
$errors = \JPI\CronLinter::lintContent($expression);

// Both methods return an array of error messages, or an empty array if no errors found
