We've introduced the PHP support in Brackets 1.14, powered by the PHP language server.

Brackets now supports the following features for PHP:

  • Code Hinting - Open a PHP file and just get going... Code Hinting
  • Parameter Hinting - Contextual parameter hints tell the user where they are in the call context Parameter Hinting
  • Jump to Definition - Ctrl-J and you're all set... Jump to Definition
  • Linting - Diagnostics 'on type' or 'on save'... Linting
  • Find References - Place the cursor and just right click or Shift-F12... Linting
  • Find Document Symbols - Ctrl-T to list all the symbols in the current document... Linting
  • Find Project Symbols - Ctrl-Shift-T to list all the project wide symbols... Linting

PHP in Brackets can also be configured using custom settings in brackets.json:

// PHP Tooling default configuration settings
"php": {
        "enablePhpTooling": true,
	"executablePath": "php"//Path format: "C:\\path\\to\\php.exe" for WIN  or "/Users/someuser/bin/php" for MAC
	"memoryLimit": "4095M", //Recommended to increase to 20000M or up for bigger projects, -1 for infinite memory
	"validateOnType": "false" //Configuration to have diagnostics "on type" or "on save"
}

Note: Don't forget to remove comments while using as valid JSONs can't have comments.
