Undefined functions/methods - Intelephense(1013) - Laravel Homestead + VScode

Question

I have been working on learning laravel. I am using Homestead in conjunction with virtualbox - and my IDE is vscode. I have been getting the "problem lines" under inane things in my IDE... see below:

I cant figure out why something like "view" or "isNot" has those error lines. Everything works fine I am just wondering why the IDE is throwing intelephenser(1013) problems at me.

Here is the errors it is throwing:

Any ideas on getting rid of this would be appreciated! :D

I've found that Laravel doesn't play well with Intelephense, but using https://github.com/barryvdh/laravel-ide-helper helps with a lot of those errors. — Tim Lewis, Nov 27 '20 at 19:35

Laravel has global helper function and class aliases declared

You can use barryvdh/laravel-ide-helper to help your IDE recognize the helpers and aliases.

Follow this guide if you struggle installing it.

basicly

$ composer require --dev barryvdh/laravel-ide-helper

$ php artisan ide-helper:generate
$ php artisan ide-helper:meta
$ php artisan ide-helper:models --nowrite

Did not seem to work for me. Not sure why. – Jacob Downs Nov 27 '20 at 23:12

You need to run `php artisan ide-helper:generate` at least once and reopen or better restart vscode. – Gkiokan Jun 29 '22 at 14:02

Add annotation to your variable like so:

/** @var \App\Models\User $user **/

$user = Auth::user();

It'd tell PHP intelephense that $user variable is not Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\User but \App\Models\User.
