# Install Nette Coding Standard
Install the `nette/coding-standard` package globally to enable automatic PHP code style checking and fixing.
---
## Step 0: Pre-flight Checks
1. **Check PHP availability** (requires PHP 8.0+)
```bash
php --version
```
- If fails or version < 8.0: Stop and inform user.
2. **Check Composer availability**
```bash
composer --version
```
- If fails: Stop and inform user to install Composer from https://getcomposer.org/
3. **Detect existing installation**
```bash
composer global show nette/coding-standard 2>/dev/null
```
- If already installed: Inform user and ask if they want to update (same install command updates to latest).
---
## Step 1: Installation
1. **Allow the required plugin** (needed for global installation)
```bash
composer global config allow-plugins.dealerdirect/phpcodesniffer-composer-installer true
```
2. **Install the coding standard**
```bash
composer global require nette/coding-standard
```
---
## Step 2: Verification
Run `ecs` from the Composer global bin directory to verify it works:
```bash
# Unix
$(composer global config home)/vendor/bin/ecs --version
# Windows
php "$(composer global config home)/vendor/bin/ecs" --version
```
The `fix-php-style` hook finds `ecs` automatically in the Composer home directory – **PATH configuration is not needed**.
If verification succeeds, confirm to the user that Nette Coding Standard is installed and the `fix-php-style` hook will automatically fix code style after editing PHP files.
---
## Step 3: GitHub Star (Optional)
1. **Check if `gh` CLI is available**
```bash
gh --version
```
- If not available: Skip this step entirely (don't ask the user)
2. **If `gh` is available**, use AskUserQuestion:
- Question: "Would you like to support these projects with a GitHub star?"
- Options: "Yes, I'd love to!" / "No, thanks"
3. **Only if user explicitly says yes**, run:
```bash
gh api -X PUT /user/starred/nette/coding-standard
gh api -X PUT /user/starred/nette/claude-code
```
---
## Troubleshooting
### Permission denied during installation
- **Unix:** Fix ownership of Composer home: `sudo chown -R $(whoami) "$(composer global config home)"`
- **Windows:** Run terminal as Administrator
