How to change automatic variable generation in PhpStorm? - phpstorm

With PhpStorm, if you type function foo(MyClass $, it will propose myClass as the variable name.
But since I added a WordPress project (I accepted default settings for WordPress as proposed), it propose my_class instead.
I really would like to bring back the camel case naming by default, but I don't find where it is configured.
Is there an option for this? Or maybe a configuration file to edit?

In the settings (Ctrl+Alt+S), go to Editor > Code Style > PHP, then click the Other tab. At the bottom of the screen, you should see the Variable Naming Style section. Select camelCase.

Sublime text 2 Snippets - autocomplete

I've created a bunch of snippets in Sublime Text 2, but I cant remember them all off the top of my head. I've seen in a number of tutorials that as people start typing their snippets tab-triggers it will start to provide a list of the matching snippets. I don't see this.
Is there a setting somewhere for this? Or do I need to create a special file (completions file?). For most snippets I have the <scope> commented out as I may use in a PHP or HTML file for example depending what I am working on.
Most of my snippets tab triggers start the same elq- prefix, so it would be very helpful if it were to start showing me the options as I type.
The setting auto_complete_selector controls when Sublime automatically offers the popup for possible completions. The default value for this setting is:
// Controls what scopes auto complete will be triggered in
"auto_complete_selector": "source - comment",
This means that it will automatically pop up for any file that's considered a source code file, except within a comment.
The scopes for the file types that you mention in your question are text scopes and not source scopes, which stops the popup from appearing.
One way around that would be to manually invoke the auto complete panel by using the appropriate key binding, which by default is Alt+/ on Linux or Ctrl+Space on Windows/OSX. When you do that, the popup for possible completions at this point is manually displayed.
To allow this to work more automatically, you would need to modify the setting for auto_complete_selector to be more appropriate for your situation.
To do that you could select Preferences > Settings - User from the menu and add or modify the auto_complete_selector setting as follows:
"auto_complete_selector": "source - comment, text.html",
This says that the selector should always be displayed in source files except inside comments (like the default) and also within HTML files.
You could also use text instead of text.html if you want it to work in all text files of all types, although this would possibly get quite annoying while working with plain text files. Substitute an appropriate scope or set of scopes here as appropriate to dial in the places you want this to be automatically offered.

Ignore some classes in project from suggestion in code complete

I have file email.php where I have markup and declaration of class email_db which I never used in another place. But when I use autocomplete when I try type empty by 2 first letters em I often see this class as suggestion.
Is it possible to ignore some class names from code complete feature?
No, there's no option for that. The only thing you can try - is to move the file with class declaration to a folder marked "excluded".
Configuring imports
**To configure classes to be excluded from import
Open the Settings/Preferences dialog box, and under the Editor / General node, click Auto-Import.
On the Auto-Import page, click Alt+Insert.
In the dialog box that opens, type the name of the class or a whole package to be excluded, and click OK.
Use Alt+Insert and Alt+Delete to manage the list of classes and packages that IntelliJ IDEA shouldn't place to the suggestion list.
Apply changes and close Settings/Preferences dialog.

Custom code snippet for WebStorm and PhpStorm

I use custom code snippet for Sublime Text like custom comments, function, reusable block code, CDN and more.. but I could not do that in WebStorm and PhpStorm IDE.
Here is my building block code snippet (comments) for Sublime Text:
/*============================
comments
============================*/
and this code blocks for HTML5 comments
<!-----------------------
comments
----------------------->
Moreover I'm new user for JetBrains software. Can I use custom code snippet above in JetBrains software ?
It's called Live Templates in JetBrains IDEs.
Available at Settings/Preferences | Editor | Live Templates.
You can use existing Live Templates as is, alter them to your needs or create your own.
Creating own is better be done in own group -- they will be stored in separate config file so easier to share, no possible conflicts with built-in ones (easier to update between versions etc.). It also makes perfect sense to use separate group per language -- the same abbreviation can be used for different languages/context but abbreviation within the same group must be unique.
BTW -- I'd say -- do not edit built-ins at all -- just disable specific built-in template and create your own version of it in separate group. This way you can always see what fix/change devs have made in new IDE version etc.
Full official tutorial/how-to is available here: https://confluence.jetbrains.com/display/PhpStorm/Live+Templates+%28Snippets%29+in+PhpStorm

in particular (since you have used Sublime in the past): https://confluence.jetbrains.com/display/PhpStorm/PhpStorm+for+Users+of+Text+Editors
Finally I get a tips ! PhpStorm allows you to create your own live templates (code snippets) to optimise your workflows.
Open the settings dialog and head into Editor | Live Templates, you can see the available live templates grouped by language. To add a new template click the + (plus) button and select Live Template. Specify the abbreviation (the short bit of text you type that will be expanded to the full code snippet) and a description.
Then provide the full code snippet in the Template text field. You can include variables in the template in the format $<variable name>$, which will allow you to provide values when the template is expanded. PhpStorm recognises $END$ as a special variable indicating the final position of the cursor after the template has been expanded and values have been provided for all variables.
Next click the Define warning text to specify which language the template is for and optionally the context it is available in.
Now the template is ready to be used. Open a file and type the abbreviation that was specified earlier, then hit Tab to expand the template. The cursor will be positioned on the first variable, provide a value then hit Tab to keep moving through all available variables. The final position of the cursor will be the location of the $END$ variable.

Creating & Editing Live Templates
I don't think you can do this, however you can add custom tags in Settings > Editor > TODO.
//TODO & //FIXME are already implemented.
But this custom tags are not working for HTML.
Maybe you can find an extension to do that in Settings > Plugins.

Force autocomplete suggestions for file paths

I am currently working on a controller file for a Phalcon project. I like how PhpStorm gives you autocomplete suggestions when writing a src or href value in an HTML file. I was wondering, is possible to enable autocomplete suggestions when adding resources in a controller?
This is what happens when I force autocomplete suggestions(Ctrl + Space)
This is what I would like to happen.
EDIT: I should also note that I have marked the folder, containing all my resources(ie. CSS, javascript, and images), as the "Resource root".
RE: EDITThis does not affect availability of this feature/functionality in any way as "Resource roots" are used for path resolutions/validation and not for actual "offer this functionality or hide it" choice. -LazyOne
Unfortunately there is no real way of automatically providing such functionality in random string as it's hard to guess that file path is expected in this particular place (function parameters is different case -- here some hinting mechanics (special annotation) may work).
But .. you can forcibly enable it manually for each particular place (should last until file or project is closed):
Have some code, e.g. $someVar = ['css' => 'aaa'];
Place caret inside aaa string (it has to be 3 or more characters, based on my observations, otherwise option in #4 will not be present -- must be some sort of optimisation/limitation from IDE side)
Invoke shortcut to bring "Quick Fix" menu (Alt + Enter on Windows)
Choose Inject language or reference from appeared menu
Choose File Reference from next menu
Start using it (Ctrl + Space)

Changing MonoDevelop Encapsulation Template

Is it possible to change the template used by MonoDevelop when you right click a field in C# select Refactor -> Encapsulate Field?
I would like to change the default code that is inserted when this option is selected.
It's not a template, it's a method that constructs a property to match your code formatting settings.
What do you want to change? If it's something that should be influenced by code formatting settings, please file an enhancement bug.
