Php-cs-fixer: GitLab reporter - no documentation

[Jamesking56]

There is no documentation for how to properly configure the GitLab reporter. I'm struggling to get GitLab to show anything for CS dry run via GitLab CI.

From the readme;

The --format option for the output format. Supported formats are txt (default one), json, xml, checkstyle, junit and gitlab.

Using that format will give the output usable by gitlab. Maybe @mjanser or @hco can help you with the setup. Doing the setup itself is out of the scope of theis project, as such I'm closing this issue.

@Jamesking56 did you find out how to use it? I saw it by chance and would like to know more but couldn't find any information about the Gitlab reporter.
(sorry for commenting on an old GH issue but I couldn't find any other thread or mention anywhere else)

please see the following - #4430
we couldn't get official schema of this format even from gitlab themselves. maybe it's the other case now - don't hesitate to help on that, @milgner

Has been a long time since I last used gitlab - but you should be able to run it an configure the output as a "code quality" artifact. The following links might help:
https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/ci/yaml/#artifactsreportscodequality-starter
https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/merge_requests/code_quality.html

Much appreciated! I was missing the link to the code quality artifacts! I'll give it a try and will gladly write down some corresponding documentation.

Not sure whether there is a schema somewhere but it's also something I'll try to look into. Might be a couple of weeks, though, as my free time right now is mostly consumed by preparing to move to a new apartment with a pandemic around 😅
