moodle-extra doesn't catch 'Functions must not contain multiple empty lines in a row'

[individual-it]

my .phpcs.xml looks like this

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ruleset name="MoodleCore">
  <rule ref="moodle-extra"/>
</ruleset>

and in db/install.php I have this code:

        } else {
            $issuerdata->image = $ocislogourl;
        }


        $issuer = core\oauth2\api::create_issuer($issuerdata);
        $result = $issuer->is_valid();
        if (!$result) {
            return $result;
        }

The multi empty line issue is not reported by phpcs

When I change the rule to <rule ref="moodle"/> it works correctly.

The Moodle-extra ruleset needs to also be included with the Moodle ruleset as per the docs. Can you check with that config?

Same issue, if I add both moodle and moodle-extra
I think moodle is already included in moodle-extra, see https://github.com/moodlehq/moodle-cs/blob/main/moodle-extra/ruleset.xml#L10

btw. the local/codechecker plugin detects the issue correctly

This is a curious case, I've tried here with this simple php script:

<?php // phpcs:disable moodle

function something() {
    echo "Hello World";
    echo "Hello World";


    echo "Hello World";
}

And this is what I get:

With the "moodle" standard:

$ vendor/bin/phpcs -s --standard=moodle pp.php && echo "ok!" || echo "problem!"

problem!

With the "moodle-extra" standard:

$ vendor/bin/phpcs -s --standard=moodle-extra pp.php && echo "ok!" || echo "problem!"
ok!

(I've tried the above with the testing file being within Moodle, within moodle-cs and in an empty directory, to avoid any [.]phpcs.xml[.dist] interference. Same result always)

Really curious, I've over-looked the moodle-extra ruleset and have not found anything disabling that SuperfluousWhitespace sniff. Sure that there is a reason, but we have to find it.

Ciao :-)
