rabol Thank you for the details!

  • Formatting: please make sure you set Format: Code Style to "Laravel"

  • Features: Create View, GoTo View, Generating Factory and tests, ...
    Working on it, thanks for the suggestions!

  • IntelliSense: what version of Laravel do you use? I've noticed versions <= 8 have poor annotations. With Laravel >= 9, you should see the following data tool tips:

    • Tooltip on ::first() should properly recognize that it's returning User
    • After -> you should see all the methods from traits, mixins, and eloquent extensions.

  • ide helper is not needed as you mentioned :) but it may add some annotations for older Laravel framework sources.

  • auto import classes is there; it auto-imports when typing, or it can be invoked using a code action, or a quick fix:

    I can see, if you just type "User", it does not auto-import. VSCode needs you to select the corresponding item in the code completion - I'll see if we can improve that behavior.



    Quick fix is available, but note it's a premium feature.

      Hi

      Thanks for the formatting hint - I actually thought that I had it to Laravel, but it was on PSR-12, my mistake
      I normally always work with the latest version of Laravel, so currently V11
      I have a paid version of PHPTools, so I assume that "Premium" features is included
      I might try to switch to pre-release vesions of PHP Tools to get the "missing" features faster :)

        rabol good! We'll be continuously pushing new features to pre-release.

        May I ask you to check the tooltip for User::first() ?

            @rabol Hello,

            We have several exciting updates about Laravel support in VS Code.

            Pre-Release 1.55.16833 provides most of the Laravel magic, various code completions, routes, views, configs, Livewire, Blade editor, Eloquent magic, and more.

            Please try and let us know how it works for you. We're keen to add more features or improve existing.

            Anything specific one should try to test ?

              I have noticed that the config() lookup only goes one level down

              e.g

              in the config/services.php one can have something like this:

              'my_service' => [
    'api_key => 'sdjhsakhdkjshdkjahkdah'
]

              then the lookup only show services.my_service and not services.my_service.api_key

              as you can see, there is only one level

              As far as I can see, there should be support for formatting blade files, but I cannot make it work.
              Is there a setting that I'm missing ?

                rabol Formatting blade files is there:

                May I ask for an example, where it doesn't work as expected?

                    I'm not allowed to upload QTVideo - what is supported ?

                      rabol please try .mov again (it was disabled for some reason). Otherwise, a link somewhere will always work.

                      thank you
