Phoxite for VS Code
PHP and Laravel code intelligence from a native engine written in Rust: no PHP, Node.js or
licence needed for any feature.
PHP
- Completion with auto-import, named arguments, array keys and enum cases
- Hover, signature help, inlay hints (parameter names, types), semantic highlighting
- Go to Definition, Type Definition and Implementation; Find All References; call and type
hierarchies; workspace symbols
- Rename (a class's file is renamed with it); moving files updates namespaces and references
- Quick-fixes and refactorings, Organize Imports, Format Document (PSR-12)
- Inspections: undefined classes, functions, methods and properties, type mismatches, unused
imports and more, each one configurable (
phoxite.inspections)
Laravel
- Routes, views, Blade components, config, env, translations, validation rules, gates and
policies, Artisan commands, Livewire, Inertia, macros and modules: completion, go to
definition, hover, usages and rename for the strings that name them
- Eloquent: columns from the migrations, relations, scopes, factories
- Code lenses on controller methods with their routes, the full URI after each route
- Laravel inspections with quick-fixes (create a missing view, translation key…)
The commands below are in the Command Palette under Laravel once a Laravel project is open.
- Laravel Routes (Explorer view) lists the routes by route file: click one to go to it,
or copy its URL, open it in the browser or copy it as an HTTP request. Go to Route…
searches them by method, URI, name or action.
- Model view: the lens on an Eloquent model class opens the model's table, columns,
relations, scopes, accessors and related classes (factory, policy, migrations…). Each
item goes to its declaration; right-click for Find Usages and Rename. Add Columns…
writes a migration and adds the columns to
$fillable.
- Generate… (also in the Explorer's context menu) creates controllers, Form Requests,
migrations, jobs, mailables, policies, Blade components, tests and more, plus the code
generations of the project's
ide.json. New Eloquent Model… is a form for a model
with its fields, relations and indexes, and optionally its migration, factory, seeder,
controller, Form Requests, JSON resource and policy.
- Run Artisan Command… lists the project's commands, Laravel's and the packages', asks
for arguments and runs the command in the terminal. A console command class has a
Run artisan … lens. The project's own commands are also in Tasks: Run Task, and
tasks.json can keep one with its arguments:
{ "type": "artisan", "command": "migrate", "arguments": "--seed" }.
- Create translation key… (the lightbulb on a translation key some locale lacks) asks
which locales get the key and their texts.
- Edit Generator Template… opens the project's copy of a generator's template
(
.phoxite/templates/<name>.ft); the generators use it instead of the default.
Blade
Completion, hover, go to definition and usages inside echoes, directives and @php blocks;
directive, section, stack and component names; the template's own problems; formatting.
