cakephp-ide-helperIDE Helper for CakePHP

Annotations, meta files, code-completion stubs, and Illuminator tasks — boost IDE and static analyzer support, avoid mistakes.

📝

Annotations Updater

Keep doc blocks and annotations on controllers, models, entities, templates, commands, and more in sync as your code evolves.

🧠

Produce `.phpstorm.meta.php` files so PhpStorm and VS Code understand factories, magic strings, and return types.

💡

IDE-agnostic stub generation for behaviors and SelectQuery generics, so chained ORM calls keep their types.

⚙️

Rewrite source files where annotations are not enough — for example, generate entity field constants automatically.

🔁

Run as a CI check (`-d --ci`), pre-commit hook, or live file watcher with chokidar or watchexec.

🧱

Plug in your own annotators, callback tasks, generator tasks, and Illuminator tasks — replace built-ins or add new ones.
