Re: Doc Blocks (Inline documentation)

[Watts Martin]

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. :)

I assume there was a more extended version of the question earlier?

Doc Blocks (Inline documentation)

['MGatner' via BBEdit Talk]

Hi all- I'm working on a PHP framework in BBEdit. A number of other 
contributors talk about the advantages of PHPStorm and how it can read, 
analyze, and output the "doc blocks" - popular inline documentation for 
methods that does actually have some bearing on things like unit tests. 
Example:

/**
* Copy each path to its relative destination.
*
* @param string $destination  Directory to copy files into
*
* @return array  Array of the actual files copied, relative paths
*/
public function copyPaths(string $destination): array
{

I'm fond of BBedit and like that it does not lock me into one language. 
Does anyone know of a way to get at some similar functionality within 
BBEdit, with a plugin or extension perhaps?
