Display context menu "PHP Code Sniffer" only in PHP files

[pierresh]

Hello,

I think it would be better if the context menu "PHP Code Sniffer" is displayed only in PHP files. I am working on Typescript files and it still appears while this is not relevant in that case. Thanks!

Hey @pierresh

Is extensions_to_execute defined in your settings to PHP?

[pierresh]

Thanks a lot for your prompt feedback. Yes extensions_to_execute is set to php

Also, I run Subline Text 3 version 3.2.2, build 3211

Ok. I have to be honest and say I've not used Sublime in about 3 years and I'm no longer using PHP. Therefore it's unlikely I'll be able to fix or implement this any time soon. I hope you understand.

[pierresh]

alright, thanks for your feedback

Unfortunately this isn't possible yet, see https://github.com/sublimehq/sublime_text/issues/1859 and https://github.com/sublimehq/sublime_text/issues/1095

I think it is possible because that is already the case with JsPrettier. This appears in the sub-menu when files can be formatted with Prettier, but not in others.

Per example, you can see JsPrettier in my screenshots above with PHP and Typescript files. Then, if I open the configuration file of MySQL (which is not supported by Prettier), that JsPrettier is then no more available in the sub-menu.

It's possible with JsPrettier because it's only a single menu item, not an expandable menu item that contains multiple other items. That's what the linked issues are about.
