observeQuery accesses the super-global variable $_GET. Open
public function observeQuery()

Superglobals
Since: 0.2
Accessing a super-global variable directly is considered a bad practice. These variables should be encapsulated in objects that are provided by a framework, for instance.
Example
class Foo {
public function bar() {
$name = $_POST['foo'];
}
}Source

Avoid using static access to class '\Kontentblocks\Utils\Utilities' in method 'heartbeatReceive'. Open
$environment = Utilities::getPostEnvironment($data['post_id']);- Read upRead up
- Exclude checks
StaticAccess
Since: 1.4.0
Static access causes unexchangeable dependencies to other classes and leads to hard to test code. Avoid using static access at all costs and instead inject dependencies through the constructor. The only case when static access is acceptable is when used for factory methods.
Example
class Foo
{
public function bar()
{
Bar::baz();
}

The method heartbeatReceive uses an else expression. Else clauses are basically not necessary and you can simplify the code by not using them. Open
} else {
$environment = Utilities::getPostEnvironment($data['post_id']);
$backupManager = new BackupDataStorage2($environment);
$backups = $backupManager->getAll();
$response['hmm'] = update_post_meta($data['post_id'], 'kb_last_backup', $data['kbBackupWatcher']['id']);- Read upRead up
- Exclude checks
ElseExpression
Since: 1.4.0
An if expression with an else branch is basically not necessary. You can rewrite the conditions in a way that the else clause is not necessary and the code becomes simpler to read. To achieve this, use early return statements, though you may need to split the code it several smaller methods. For very simple assignments you could also use the ternary operations.
Example
class Foo
{
public function bar($flag)
{
if ($flag) {
// one branch
} else {
// another branch
}
}

The method observeQuery() contains an exit expression. Open
exit;- Read upRead up
- Exclude checks
ExitExpression
Since: 0.2
An exit-expression within regular code is untestable and therefore it should be avoided. Consider to move the exit-expression into some kind of startup script where an error/exception code is returned to the calling environment.
Example
class Foo {
public function bar($param) {
if ($param === 42) {
exit(23);
}
}

CamelCaseParameterName

Detects when a field, local, or parameter has a very short name.

$r = 20 + $this->q; // VIOLATION - Local
for (int $i = 0; $i < 10; $i++) { // Not a Violation (inside FOR)
$r += $this->q;
