Does this work for CI 2?

Hi, does this work for CodeIgniter 2.*? Thanks.

I do not know. And, I think that some classes have different names. You will need to check the User Guide and do some updates, but... Why do not start with CodeIgniter 4? CI 2 will be deprecated soon.

I have old CI2 projects, I was wondering if this'd work on them before installing it and trying it out.

[natanfelles]

I never tested. Open the phpstorm.php file and see how it is done. You could customize your own file according with CI 2 and your project classes, if you want.

This article describe how to.

CI 4 help with code completion natively.

Did you try it?

[guillermoizqgar]

I got it working on CI 2 with the same instructions you gave us.

Great to hear that it works with CI 2, I have been too busy to try it out but the confirmation that it works is certainly nice!

Mind sharing your custom CI 2 file with us - assuming there were changes that were needed to be made there?

I just followed your instructions and it worked at first try, the only thing I have added is the same properties to both CI_Model and CI_controller in phpstorm.php, in order to get the definitions in my controllers and my models, aIthough do not know if that is a good practice

/* @Property example_model $example_model */
class CI_Controller{--}

/* @Property example_model $example_model */
class CI_Model{--}
