Custom code navigation Follow

Created October 11, 2018 02:07

I use Livestreet CMF, and have to deal with Livestreet's specific syntax for calling some methonds.

For example, if I call method $this->Blog_GetBlogsRating it means that I call GetBlogRating method from Blog_Module class.

I need correct code navigation, so if I ctrl+click on $this->Blog_GetBlogsRating PhpStorm should open method GetBlogRating in Blog_Module class, how can I achieve this?

Writing my own plugin is acceptable method, but please give me a hint what hooks/methods and so on I can use for it.

Thanks

Unfortunately, you can't do that with Advanced Metadata currently. Please vote for the request: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WI-36647

What you can do is to add @method PHPDoc blocks in every class (or their parent), like:

class Blog {
    function getBlogsRating() {
        return new DateTime();
    }
}

/**
 * @method DateTime Blog_GetBlogsRating
 */
class Invoker {

    function test() {
        $this->Blog_GetBlogsRating();
    }
}

For obvious reasons, you'll need to adjust the docblock each time you change the method itself.

As for the plugin development, you can get hints here: https://confluence.jetbrains.com/display/PhpStorm/Plugin+Development
