About PHPDoc Comment

PHPDoc Comment

Visual Studio Marketplace CI

This extension adds PHPDoc blocks for PHP functions, properties, classes, interfaces, traits, and enums in VS Code.

Using

In a PHP file, place your cursor on the first line of a declaration, then run Add PHPDoc Comment from the Command Palette (F1). You can also use Cmd+Shift+I on macOS, Ctrl+Shift+I on Windows/Linux, or the editor context menu.

The extension supports multiline function signatures, class and namespaced types, nullable types, union and intersection types, promoted constructor properties, variadic/reference parameters, typed properties, and nested default values.

If a declaration already has a PHPDoc block, the command leaves it unchanged. PHP attributes remain attached to their declarations because generated documentation is inserted before the attribute block.

Limitations

Parameter types are not inferred from usage. Parameters and properties without a declared or recognizable default type are documented as mixed.

Enjoy!

Filled points are observed values; hollow points come from Internet Archive snapshots of the listing page. Dashed segments span periods with no observations — values between points are not interpolated.

Each band is one page of 20. Installs on a linear scale. Placement is projected from installs, so it can differ from the marketplace's own sort order. Hover a dot to see the listing.
