How to install phpcodesniffer engine to work with CodeClimate CLI?

I'm just trying to use codeclimate cli to analyze my code locally. I'm using Mac OS X 10.10.3 and, as recommended here, I'm using boot2docker.

Everything good so far. I run codeclimate init to generate .codeclimate.yml file and tweaked it. It looks like this:

---
engines:
  phpcodesniffer:
    enabled: true
  coffeelint:
    enabled: true
  eslint:
    enabled: true
  csslint:
    enabled: true
ratings:
  paths:
  - "**.php"
  - "**.coffee"
  - "**.js"
  - "**.jsx"
  - "**.css"
exclude_paths:
- node_modules/**/*
- vendor/**/*
- etc/**/*
- .vagrant/**/*

After that I run codeclimate engines:install and this is my output:

Pulling docker images.
WARNING: unknown engine name: phpcodesniffer
...

Finally, codeclimate engines:list outputs:

Available engines: - bundler-audit: Patch-level verification for Bundler - coffeelint: A style checker for CoffeeScript - csslint: Automated linting of Cascading Stylesheets - eslint: A JavaScript/JSX linting utility - gofmt: gofmt - golint: golint - govet: govet - rubocop: A Ruby static code analyzer, based on the community Ruby style guide. - rubymotion: Rubymotion-specific rubocop checks - watson: A young Ember Doctor to help you fix your code.

What am I doing wrong? How should I install this engine?

Many thanks in advance

Code Climate CLI needs to be updated if does not list out the engines it claims to support. To update you either can pull the latest docker image $ docker pull codeclimate/codeclimate or update your local git repo of CC and build image from there and execute make i.e. sudo make install - illusionist

We (Code Climate) just recently released the phpcodesniffer engine, and your local Code Climate CLI version likely needs to be updated to know about it.

I just updated our docs to explain how to run an update: http://docs.codeclimate.com/article/301-code-climate-cli-troubleshooting#unknown_engine
