PhpStorm 2018.2 EAP 182.3569.36
The new PhpStorm 2018.2 EAP build (182.3569.36) is now available! You can download it here or via JetBrains Toolbox App. Or, if you have the previous PhpStorm 2018.2 EAP build (182.3458.35) installed, you should soon get a notification in the IDE about a patch update.
This build delivers new features, bug fixes, and improvements for PHP and the Web, and includes the latest improvements in IntelliJ Platform.
Customizable value for $_SERVER[‘DOCUMENT_ROOT’]
In the previous PhpStorm versions $_SERVER[‘DOCUMENT_ROOT’] always pointed to the project root and in many cases, it didn’t reflect the actual project structure. This caused broken path completion for includes as well as false positive warnings. PhpStorm 2018.2 solves the problem allowing you to set this variable to any folder in Settings/Preferences|Languages & Frameworks|PHP|Analysis tab.
Automatic CodeSniffer code standard setup
We continue improving automatic project configuration based on the composer.json file. In the earlier PhpStorm 2018.2 EAP build, we’ve added automatic configuration of CodeSniffer. We went a step further and now we analyze scripts section of the composer.json and enable PHPCS inspection with the standard used in this section.
This build delivers new features, bug fixes, and improvements for PHP and the Web, and includes the latest improvements in IntelliJ Platform:
