phpstanApi.trait - Phpstan

Code example

php

<?php declare(strict_types = 1);

// When a PHPStan extension uses a PHPStan internal trait:

use PHPStan\SomeInternalTrait;

class MyExtension
{
	use SomeInternalTrait;
}

Why is it reported?

The code uses a PHPStan trait that is not marked with the @api tag. Traits without the @api tag are internal to PHPStan and are not covered by the backward compatibility promise. They may change or be removed in minor PHPStan versions without notice.

PHPStan currently does not declare any traits covered with backward compatibility promise.

How to fix it

Use only @api-tagged PHPStan types in your extensions. If you believe the trait should be part of the public API, you can open a discussion at github.com/phpstan/phpstan/discussions.
