phpstan pro with ddev

For phpstan pro see https://phpstan.org/blog/introducing-phpstan-pro. It's a great tool, it's monthly plan for developers should be worth it for most of us.

Unfortunately, at this point in time, phpstan pro is not fully compatible with ddev. The following guide thus just describes a workaround, restricted to be used with one ddev project at a time.

First, make sure you have composer required phpstan in your project.

Add a file .ddev/docker-compose.phpstan.yaml with the following content:

# .ddev/docker-compose.phpstan.yaml
services:
  web:
    volumes:
      - ~/phpstan-pro:/tmp/phpstan-fixer
    environment:
      - PHPSTAN_PRO_WEB_PORT=11111
    ports:
      - 127.0.0.1:11111:11111

Restart ddev. Start phpstan with a command like:

ddev exec vendor/bin/phpstan analyse --pro

You should see something like:

Running in Docker? Don't forget to do these steps:
1) Publish this port when running Docker:
   -p 127.0.0.1:11111:11111
2) Map the temp directory to a persistent volume
   so that you don't have to log in every time:
   -v ~/.phpstan-pro:/tmp/phpstan-fixer

Open your web browser at: http://127.0.0.1:11111
Press [Ctrl-C] to quit.

Now simply point your browser to http://127.0.0.1:11111 - after login/registration, you will be redirected to phpstan pro's dashboard.
