Hello!

First of all, thank you for this great piece of code, works beautifully.

What do you think about opening a PR to squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer for including the codeclimate spec?

Basically gitlab is using a subset of it, but still, both would benefit the community and didn't want to steal your work 🙂

Cheers!

PS: found another really cool solution here:

php -dmemory_limit=-1 vendor/bin/phpcs  --report=json . | jq '[.files | keys[] as $file | .[] | .messages | .[] as $msg |  {type: "issue", check_name: $msg.source, categories: ["PHP", "phpcs"], fingerprint: ("\($file):\($msg.line):\($msg.source)"), description: $msg.message, location: { path: $file, lines: {begin: $msg.line, end: $msg.line }}}]'

Hello Razvan

It would be nice to integrate the report into the main PHPCodeSniffer repository. However, previous attempts to add new reports were all either closed or remain unmerged for multiple years (including a codeclimate report), as the author does not want to maintain the additional reports.

See for example:
squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer#2814
squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer#2918
squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer#2451

Unfortunately, I do not think it is worth it to open a PR.
