Lazy programmers (i.e. every programmer) like to use code snippets. The goal is to write less code and program faster. IDE's (or text editors like VIM) allow the use of such snippets to write for us commonly used functions.
The purpose of these Live Templates is to provide Drupal devs such templates for Drupal hooks. It was generated using a Perl script that basically create PHPStorm Live Templates from *.api.php files in Drupal /includes and /modules directories. The output is a bit raw, so it needs some love and polish.
- Download and copy the xml file(s) from this repo to your templates folder:
- Windows:
<your home directory>\.<product name><version number>\config\templates - Linux:
~\.<product name><version number>\config\templates - OS X:
~/Library/Preferences/<product name><version number>/templates
e.g. ~/Library/Preferences/PhpStorm2016.2/templates on OS X for PhpStorm 2016
-
Restart PhpStorm.
-
To see all templates, go to Preferences->Live Templates and expand the Template Group.
While editing, use CMD + J (osX) or CTRL + J to start inserting a live template.
Type h_HOOKNAME<tab> for short version, hook_HOOKNAME<tab> for annoted version (with core comments).
The hook should be completed as you would see in the api docs.
The script generator allows you to create live templates by scanning the .api.php files that exist in your drupal project. It looks for functions starting with function hook_ and uses that to build the live templates.
You need Perl in your machine. This script was written under Debian Linux, so it may need some adaptations for others OS's.
Type these commands :
$ cd /path/to/drupal
$ find . -name \*.php | xargs grep -l '^function hook_' | xargs /path/to/parse_drupal_api.pl > ~/.WebIde10/config/templates/user.xml
