PhpStorm EAP Downloader
=======================

[](#phpstorm-eap-downloader)

Downloads PhpStorm to a defined folder and creates a Symlink to the new version. It can also cleanup old PhpStorm versions in file.

Requirements:

- PHP 5.4.0+
- Linux or MacOS (Windows not supported)
- wget (For PhpStorm download)

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

[](#installation)

```
$> composer.phar install

```

Or create phar file. See section *Create phar file* below.

Or via composer.phar

```
$> composer.phar global require 'cmuench/phpstorm-downloader=1.0.8'

```

Call it as ~/.composer/vendor/bin/phpstorm-downloader

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

### Download

[](#download)

```
$> bin/phpstorm-downloader download [--stable] [--download] [--symlink-name ]

```

- `--stable`: download stable version, not EAP.
- `--download`: if the revision was already downloaded (switching stable/eap, change name of symlink), download it again regardless (force download).
- ` --symlink-name `: name of the symlink to use. Default symlink name is: `PhpStorm`.
- ``: folder where PhpStorm versions are installed into. Default target folder is: `$HOME/opt`.

### Cleanup

[](#cleanup)

```
$> bin/phpstorm-downloader clean

```

Default target folder is: $HOME/opt

Create phar file
----------------

[](#create-phar-file)

You can create a executable phar file of this application.

You need [box.phar from the box-project](https://box-project.github.io/box2/) to create the phar. The repository contains a valid box.json file for that.
