[Question] Possible to ignore only one speciifc PSR12 rule?

[Gabb1995]

Running phpcbf for PSR12 I get:

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

namespace App\Services;

use App\Entity\User;
use App\Entity\Car;

use function Service\api;

Which is correct by PSR12 Standard, unfortunately PHP-CS-FIXER do not fully support this yet and when I run both phpcbf and php-cs-fixer, php-cs-fixer is removing the blank line between the imports, and phpcbf is readding causing an issue.

Is it possible to ignore this specific rule (no blank lines between grouped imports)? I checked from php-cs-fixer side but it would mean removing the no_extra_blank_lines fixer which would affect more than just this. Any help would be appreciated.

@Gabb1995 At this time that's not possible, though there's been a PR open to allow for this for nearly two years already: https://github.com/squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer/pull/2729

Out of curiosity - why are you using both PHPCS as well as CS-Fixer ? PHPCS ships with the phpcbf tool, which allows you to autofix things (but based on the violations flagged by PHPCS, so there would be no conflicts).

We use php-cs-fixer with the symfony ruleset and some other specific rules.
