Changing the RelativePathHelper using CLI parameter

[stephan-strate]

I found out that the checkstyle error formatter uses the SimpleRelativePathHelper to generate its paths.

simpleRelativePathHelper:
    class: PHPStan\File\RelativePathHelper
    factory: PHPStan\File\SimpleRelativePathHelper
    arguments:
        currentWorkingDirectory: %currentWorkingDirectory%
    autowired: false

errorFormatter.checkstyle:
    class: PHPStan\Command\ErrorFormatter\CheckstyleErrorFormatter
    arguments:
        relativePathHelper: @simpleRelativePathHelper

I am executing phpstan for a subdirectory and encountered paths starting from the parent directory. Unfortunately that is not what my codestyle report needs to look like. Changing the RelativePathHelper to the FuzzyRelativePathHelper solves the problem.

relativePathHelper:
    class: PHPStan\File\RelativePathHelper
    factory: PHPStan\File\FuzzyRelativePathHelper
    arguments:
        currentWorkingDirectory: %currentWorkingDirectory%
        analysedPaths: %analysedPaths%
        fallbackRelativePathHelper: @parentDirectoryRelativePathHelper

Can I change the RelativePathHelper using any CLI command. I do not want/I can not create an additional configuration file for this case.

Changing the configuration file is the only option. You can also compose multiple configuration files using includes: https://phpstan.org/config-reference#multiple-files
