About

Laravel-ls is a tool that enhances your text editor or IDE with powerful features specifically designed for Laravel projects.

By implementing the Language Server Protocol (LSP), Laravel-ls seamlessly integrates with any LSP-compatible editor, bringing advanced capabilities such as intelligent auto-completion, navigation to definitions, real-time diagnostics, and more.

Although still in its early development stages, Laravel-ls aims to provide a streamlined and efficient development experience tailored to the Laravel framework.

Build

To build the project you need golang version 1.22 or later, make and a c compiler.

When the dependencies are met, running make will compile and produce the binary build/laravel-ls.

Configure

Neovim

The LSP server can be started like any other server via vim.lsp.start and an auto-command.

Just change the path to the correct directory on your filesystem

vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd("FileType", {
    pattern = { "php", "blade" },
    callback = function ()
        vim.lsp.start({
            name = "laravel-ls",
            cmd = { '/path/to/laravel-ls/build/laravel-ls' },
            -- if you want to recompile everytime
            -- the language server is started.
            -- Uncomment this line instead
            -- cmd = { '/path/to/laravel-ls/start.sh' },
            root_dir = vim.fn.getcwd(),
        })
    end
})
