I've been fiddling around with trying to make a new PHP package, as well
as freshen some old packages that I used to maintain. I'll see if I can
get something out soon.
The closest to what you're asking about, though, was in an
"EditorActions" package that I have, which had a "Smart New Line"
function I bound to ^J (which was the old equivalent in Emacs, IIRC).
This was to fill in BBEdit's lack of context-aware indenting and go a
bit beyond it, like continuing Markdown bullet lists, indenting after
braces in C-like languages or lines ending in ":" in Python, filling in
an "end" statement after "def" in Ruby or Elixir, and so on. For
docblocks, if the line was "/**" then it would fill in a " * " on the
next line and a " **/" under it, and you could keep typing ^J and it
would continue the multi-line comment. It didn't introspect the actual
PHP code to fill in "@param" and "@result" lines, though.
I am hoping that a future version of BBEdit will have Language Server
Protocol support. When I write PHP in BBEdit, I miss some of those
IDE-like features that Visual Studio Code provides through LSP, but when
I write PHP in Code, I hit little editing snags that would be easier in
BBEdit. :)
