Goto PHP Manual

A Sublime Text commands that open the PHP Manual for a keyword or symbol.

How to use

Place your cursor on a PHP keyword or symbol and press f1 to open the local PHP manual (if configured), or shift+f1 to open the online PHP manual.

How to setup a local PHP Manual

Download the PHP manual, pick the “many HTML files” tar.gz, and unpack it.

Set the PHP manual path of your unpacked local manual.

Command Palette → Preferences: Settings

"goto_php_manual.path": "~/php-manual/php-chunked-xhtml",

If you use NeoVintageous

Disable the f1 and shift+f1 keys.

Command Palette → Preferences: Settings

"vintageous_handle_keys": {
    "<f1>": false,
    "<S-f1>": false,
},

For more information on configuring NeoVintageous see configuring the NeoVintageous key handler.

If you use GotoDocumentation

If you use GotoDocumentation and also use the f1 key binding, then add a context exclude for the PHP scope so that f1 passes through to Goto PHP Manual.

Command Palette → Preferences → Key Bindings

{
    "keys": ["f1"],
    "command": "goto_documentation",
    "context": [
        {
            "key": "selector",
            "operator": "equal",
            "operand": "-embedding.php",
            "match_all": true
        }
    ]
},
