Linux: PHP-HTML Beautifying does not work

[p-hebert]

Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
atom 1.0.2
atom-beautify v0.28.8

Unless I am mistaken, this is a feature request more than an issue.
Atom-beautifier relies on FriendsOfPHP/PHP-CS-Fixer to beautify PHP files.
However PHP-CS-Fixer does not seem to handle HTML code standards. I tested it via command line against a test PHP file with HTML content and the PHP-CS-Fixer failed to format the HTML properly.
I worked through already existing issues, such as #175 and #242 and I didn't find any issue specifically targeting the HTML in PHP files.
I am not sure if this issue has been addressed previously, but if not, I would suggest that PHP files be formatted using the HTML formatter, followed by the PHP-CS-fixer. This would allow global coverage of PHP without conflict between the two formatters.
Until then, the makeshift alternative is to either rename the file to *.html and beautify or to have a second file used only for HTML beautifying, which is less than optimal.

Thanks for your answer!

Sounds a bit like #457

The task seems similar indeed. However in this case it looks more than a requirement for proper functionality rather than an option.

I am going to consider this a duplicate of #457 and recommend that you subscribe to that Issue.
The fact this #457 is a requirements for proper PHP/HTML beautification only makes #457 a higher priority issue, however it does not warrant two issues containing the same concept.

Also, it would help if you could test that this does in fact work:

• Take a sample PHP/HTML hybrid file
• Beautify for HTML first
• Beautify for PHP second
• Repeat for different orderings if you like

You can change your grammar for the current file by going up into Atom's menu -> View -> Select Grammar, then switch between HTML and PHP, etc.

I will test the requested steps and come back to you when I'll be done.
