We will start a new proyect based in CI.

To facilitate the work of the team, I am looking for an standard to use in our Coding conventions and Documentation.

What guide of coding style is recomended to programing with CodeIgniter?

It's better to have a tool to automatically check if your files match the requirements of a coding convention. I use PHP_CodeSniffer [phpcs] for that.

However, it doesn't support Code Igniter style guide [ci-style] natively. So, I've developed something. It doesn't check all standard requirements, but already more than nothing.

Feel free to give a try and share your feedbacks.
