> Laravel IDE Facade Helper, generates correct PHPDocs for your Facade classes, to improve auto-completion.

> Note This package has been deprecated. Use the [Laravel Idea](https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/13441-laravel-idea) plugin instead.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Require this package with [composer](https://getcomposer.org) using the following command:

```
$ composer require dragon-code/laravel-ide-facades-helper --dev
```

This package makes use of [Laravels package auto-discovery mechanism](https://medium.com/@taylorotwell/package-auto-discovery-in-laravel-5-5-ea9e3ab20518), which means if you don't install dev dependencies in production, it also won't be loaded.

If for some reason you want manually control this:

- add the package to the `extra.laravel.dont-discover` key in `composer.json`, e.g. ```
    "extra": {
      "laravel": {
        "dont-discover": [
          "dragon-code/laravel-ide-facades-helper",
        ]
      }
    }
    ```
- Add the following class to the `providers` array in `config/app.php`: ```
    DragonCode\LaravelIdeFacadesHelper\ServiceProvider::class,
    ```

    If you want to manually load it only in non-production environments, instead you can add this to your `AppServiceProvider` with the `register()` method: ```
    public function register()
    {
        if ($this->app->environment() !== 'production') {
            $this->app->register(\DragonCode\LaravelIdeFacadesHelper\ServiceProvider::class);
        }
        // ...
    }
    ```

> Note: Avoid caching the configuration in your development environment, it may cause issues after installing this package; respectively clear the cache beforehand via `php artisan cache:clear` if you encounter problems when running the commands

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

- `php artisan ide-helper:facades` - PHPDoc generation for your Facades

You can generate helpers for your facades.

You will find additional settings in the options `facade_locations` and `facades_visibility` of the `config/ide-helper.php` file.

> Note: The package uses the same file as [barryvdh/laravel-ide-helper](https://github.com/barryvdh/laravel-ide-helper). Therefore, if you need to redefine the paths, add the configuration from [this](config/ide-helper.php) file to it.
