Installing PHP PEAR code sniffer (mac)

Question

Attempting to install the PHP PEAR code sniffer extension on a mac (after installing Mac Ports) to no avail. Ultimate goal is Drupal code sniffing in Komodo somewhat via these instructions... http://blog.8bitplateau.net/drupa-code-sniffer-komodo/

Command:

pear install PHP_CodeSniffer

Error:

No releases available for package "pear.php.net/PHP_CodeSniffer"

Presumably this can be solved over here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4981134/pear-install-for-macports-php5 — doublejosh, Feb 27 '12 at 20:05

After downloading:

pear channel-discover pear.phpunit.de

I was getting package unavailable when tyring to install the package. My answer, working in Windows, from the command prompt type:

pear clear-cache

then type:

pear install phpunit/PHPUnit

job done, if you clear the cache after every installation, any further install goes without a hitch. ENjoy
