Symfony for VSCode
This extension was originally made by TheNouillet, who has discontinued his project since 2020. You can find the original distro here.
I fixed some bugs I encountered due to updates and changes in the way Symfony works, the rest remained untouched!
This extension aims to help developing Symfony3+ projects, by providing basic autocompletion and visualization of the Symfony container.
Features
This extension provides the following features :
- Autocompletion in YML and XML files of services and parameters
- Hover details on services and parameters name
- Go to implementation of a service
- A custom view to visualize the current project container, with services, routes and parameters
How does it works ?
To detect Symfony projects, this extension rely on composer.json
files with symfony/symfony
, symfony/framework-bundle
and symfony/flex
as one of its dependencies.
The symfony/flex
dependency has been added to work with Shopware 6.
The composer.json
file is supposed to be at the root of your Symfony project.
When the project is detected, it simply uses the debug:container
and debug:router
console commands to hydrate the views and autocompletions.
The --show-private
command has been replaced with --show-hidden
due to Symfony changes
Extension settings
Here are the settings that can be overridden for convenience :
phpExecutablePath
: Path to the PHP executable. This path is ignored if the shellExecutable
parameter is different than false (default value : /usr/bin/php
).
shellExecutable
: The shell executable path. If differant that false, console commands will be called via shell instead of just calling the PHP executable. Useful for particular setup, such as Dockerized projects (default value : false
).
shellCommand
: The shell command. Only used when calling the shell to do console commands. Useful for particular setup, such as Dockerized projects (default value : false
).
consolePath
: Path to the Symfony console, relative to the root directeory. If null, the extension try to guess the path with the Symfony version from the composer.json file (default value : null
).
showConsoleErrors
: If false, the extension doesn't show error messages caused by compilation errors (default value : true
).
enableFileWatching
: If false, the extension refresh automatically when a YAML file is modified (default value : true
).
fileWatchingPatterns
: Files with one of these extensions will trigger a container refresh on save. By default, watches only *.yml
and *.xml
files.
servicesFilters
, routesFilters
and parametersFilters
: Filters out container elements. Filtered elements doesn't show in the Symfony view, nor does they appear in autocompletion.
Various environments
If your Symfony app is not running on a conventional installation (for example, you are running a Symfony app on a Docker container), you can find different configuration recipes here.
