Command-line program to indent PHP files

I'm looking for a indent application to fix all aspects of PHP code formatting - convert spaces, perform indentation in PHP and HTML code, leave HEREDOC alone, etc.

Please recommend a decent indenter for PHP.

2018 answer

Since originally finding solution, I've moved on to use https://styleci.io/. I am not affiliated with them, but I really like the simplicity and it keeps the project nice and tidy. Doesn't cost anything for my open-source project either.

I have found few things. First, the best way to mass-edit files is to use bash scripting and vim.

Second, vim indentation is not perfect and is not working always. So I had to rather do "=G" manually then review the source.

Finally, vim's command "retab" in collaboration with tab settings is great if only looking to change white-spaces into tabs.

I'd like to also point towards an awesome podcasts where I learned more about Vim:

I'd recomment PHPStorm, its not a command-line per se, but it does allow to specify custom code formatting and apply it to multiple files
