Overview

Revises the recently-added extension, phpstorm, to change the preferred location for generated hints. This should improve the range of compatible environments.

Before

  • Store dynamic metadata in [civicrm.files]/.phpstorm.meta.php/*.php
  • Store static metadata in tools/extensions/phpstorm/.phpstorm.meta.php

After

  • Store all metadata files in the same folder
  • Choose the folder from a list:
    • tools/extensions/phpstorm/.phpstorm.meta.php/*.php (default/preferred)
    • [civicrm.files]/.phpstorm.meta.php/*.php (default/fallback)
    • CIVICRM_PHPSTORM_METADATA (manual override via civicrm.settings.php)

Technical Details

These are decent folders - but not universal/awesome. Compare:

  • [civicrm.files] is always writable by PHP. But it's not always visible to PhpStorm.
  • tools/extensions/phpstorm/ is always visible to PhpStorm. But PHP is not always able to write it.

If you load the patch on an existing alpha build where the extension has been previously installed, then you may have two copies of .phpstorm.meta.php. This should be cleaned up by uninstalling/reinstalling the extension. (It just didn't seem worthwhile to write an upgrade task for something that's only affects the same alpha.)
