In PhpStorm 2016.3 (currently in EAP stage) it will be possible to open additional projects as part of the current one. PHP | Include paths are for the 3rd party code/libraries which you just use in your project but not edit them. Obviously, since those extra folders will become part of this project, current project settings will be applied to those folders as well. Once settings are saved - those newly added Content Root(s) will become part of the project and will be listed as additional nodes in Project View.īasically - the main project folder is a Content Root by itself using the above you are just adding additional folders to the project- they will be treated in the same way as main Content Root.Use Add Content Root button and point to a desired folder.This ability has since been removed by developer's conscious, actively user-hostile decision. For example, PHPUnit run configurations used to have some awareness of the project in which the relevant phpunit.xml is located, and it was possible, albeit hackily, to customize some configurables per project. This design has been thus broken since the beginning, and there have been FURTHER breakages that exacerbated this problem. Those further projects are not first-class citizens in the workspace. There is no way to configure anything per any of the further projects that you attached to the workspace later. The 'current project' choice is immutable for the lifetime of the 'workspace': it is precisely the first project that was opened/created in it, and there is no way to mark any other project as current / active / 'the one you have in mind'.Īll supposedly 'per-project' configuration settings are in fact the settings of this 'main' or 'host' project, the first one that was added to the workspace. There is no way to indicate which of the many opened projects you have in mind whenever you invoke any operation that involves the notion of 'current project'. It allows you to open multiple projects in one window, but it doesn't really support working with them in any meaningful way.

Or at least how can I open multiple projects in same window.īuild #PS-162.1889.1, built on August 23, 2016

But PhpStorm search functions/file open doesn't work for the include path.

I found similar option in PhpStorm at File > Default Settings > Language & Frameworks > PHP and set include path. I've used Netbeans and I can do this by going to project properties and setting include path. But that project root contains many other projects which I don't need so it's little bit inefficient from my point of view. Note: I've tried making the top folder as 'Project Root'. How can get this done? How can I mark dependent projects in PhpStorm? So I'd like the PhpStorm search functions work across some of the projects. I've created separate PhpStorm projects for each repository. My source files are divided into multiple repositories and they are located in different directories.
