PHP Command to Check the Syntax of a Chess PGN File
Repository
https://github.com/programarivm/pgn-chess
PGN Chess for PHP is a simple, friendly, and powerful PGN (Portable Game Notation) library for running chess games from within PHP applications. It is a chess board representation that can be used in chess engines, chess applications and chess algorithms.
New Features
Feature/pgnsyntax is a new command to check the syntax of a PGN file:
pgnsyntax.php
The PR is the continuation of PHP Command That Converts a PGN File into a MySQL Script. It is also an improvement of pgntomysql.php -- now PGN files are converted to MySQL INSERT statements as long as they are syntactically correct.
Example:
php pgnsyntax.php games.pgn
Whoops! Sorry but this is not a valid PGN file.

Please check these games. Do they provide the STR (Seven Tag Roster)? Is the movetext valid?

Hi @codingdefined, thanks for the review.
Yep, it is better to divide the work across multiple commits. Let me just note that I am squash merging my new features as it is shown in this example: Feature/pgnsyntax (#3)
Is that okay? :) I'd like to squash merge the branches to keep the history of the project a bit more concise.
On the other hand, here is the reason behind so many additions. I just added a few sample PGN files for testing purposes, and those ones contain thousands of lines -- games-02.pgn is an example having 10004 lines.
Thank you for your review, @codingdefined!
So far this week you've reviewed 11 contributions. Keep up the good work!
