PhpStorm 2022.2 Early Access Program (EAP) is officially released! This release brings many new features with generics, Rector support and a host of quality improvements.
Rector Support
Rector , which automates PHP upgrades and code refactoring in batches, now has built-in support for it in PhpStorm.
To use PhpStorm's Rector support, you first need to install Rector and configure it . Next you should create a new run configuration specifically for Rector. PhpStorm can do this automatically: just right-click on the folder you want Rector to repair and select Run | Rector .
A new Rector configuration can also be created manually on the Edit Configuration screen.
Generics
Updated support for generics:
- Int<min, max>
int<min, max>Types are now supported
- Generic support for iterables
PhpStorm is able to infer types when looping over iterables:
- Infer type from closure
PhpStorm is now able to infer generic types from closure return values.
- Support bypassing generic types
PhpStorm now handles methods better Collection::lazy()where generic types are proxied into another object:
