How to auto-generate methods of the implemented interface

Question

Is there a way in PhpStorm to automatically generate the empty methods that are required by the interface the given class is implementing?

Say we have an Interface with 3 methods - when defining the new class that implements this interface - some option to auto-generate containers for all required methods.

Sure, you can.

There are 3 ways to do it :

Press
```
Ctrl + I
```
On main menu, click
```
Code --> Implement Methods
```
On the code editor, press right click on your mouse, then click
```
Generate --> Implement Methods
```

After that, you can select one or some method(s), then click OK.

If you're implementing an interface, you're required to implement every method, so why would you only select some methods? – AlxVallejo Oct 06 '15 at 21:05

From my comment: You could try ALT + ENTER. This normaly shows up a small "dialog" to autogenerate phpdoc, functions, etc.

Just to highlight - I'm on Mac and it's Ctrl + Enter - then select Implement Methods. Thanks again. – Sebastian Sulinski Jan 20 '15 at 19:22
