StyleCI

We're looking for feedback on StyleCI!

Mainly, if you haven't signed up, what is the reason? Do you simply have no need for it? Don't understand what it does? It's missing features that you need?

All feedback is sincerely appreciated :)

I like StyleCI a lot for open source projects. It's fast and it helps a lot. Keep on going ;)

I have some applications running on some private repositories and I use the format tool from phpstorm to make sure that I have the right syntax everywhere. Of course this can't replace StyleCI, but I don't want to spend the money on this right now. The projects are not big enough to spend money for these small things.

The point is that you need a server, forge maybe, you might want to add travis as well. Then the costs start to pile up.

I think you should market StyleCI bigger projects. Most developers here won't spend the money on it, as far as I know

Just spend 20 min with StyleCI and it is awesome. I signed for 10 private repo plan and tried on one of my private repo. It went like magic. I liked it a lot and recommend it for sure @jbrooksuk

it changed 141 files with almost 5000 lines fixes :D and everything done in 2 seconds

Is there a tour or a video where I can see how it works and what it does? I was looking for it on laracast, but I saw that jeffrey hasn't covered it yet.

@sweijdt It checks for style errors on git repo commits and pull requests. Its extremely easy to use: sign in, register your git repo and its finished. You can tweak the filters used and stuff either in the app or with a yaml file. Go play around with it. The first time I used it, I had it up and running in about 5 minutes.

I was trying to figure out what it does exactly and found this discussion. They should probably put @zachleigh's explanation on the homepage of the website.

Does it work with BitBucket?

Bitbucket would be great.

And normal registration without GitHub.
