If Auto Complete Not working in Your IDE

[EGYWEB-Mohamed]

If AutoComplete in IDE such as phpStorm etc. , Is not working You can use this amazing helper laravel-ide-helper

Installation

Require this package with composer using the following command:

composer require --dev barryvdh/laravel-ide-helper

Automatic PHPDoc generation for Laravel Facades

You can now re-generate the docs yourself (for future updates)

php artisan ide-helper:generate

Easy Right? Happy Coding ♥

Hello,

Im using Laravel 9 and VSCode.

For some reason, each time i open VSCode i have to do again php artisan ide-helper:generate
Although it generates exactly the same _ide_helper.php file that the one already there.
If not i have tons of infos like Non static method should not be called statically using Backpack Facades
(intelephense) and no autocompletion.

I only have this problem with Backpack CRUD facade.

Any ideas why ?

honestly, I'm not used VScode before hope some one else can help you asap

@EGYWEB-Mohamed thanks anyway!

@imasubmarine I use both this packages:

With the package @EGYWEB-Mohamed shared. It does not require me to run the command again when opening.

I think I remember that it happened to me before too, and what I did was to run the command first, and only after let the packages do the indexing. It's have been working until now!

Cheers

@imasubmarine also, have a look at https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=georgykurian.laravel-ide-helper

Basically it runs the command automatically for you on save, so you get the completion anyway

I will give it a try.
