PhpStorm: Unresolved method or function setOutputPath()

Thanks for making Encore.

I’ve done the following:

1. Installed Encore as documented.
2. Enabled the Node.js core library in PhpStorm.
3. Restarted PhpStorm just to be sure.

In webpack.config.js, PhpStorm is showing the warning “Unresolved method or function setOutputPath()”:

I’ve verified that setOutputPath() exists in node_modules/@symfony/webpack-encore/index.js.

How can I tell PhpStorm where to find the Encore functions?

Do it! I’m sure those steps are still valid - so this is just a chore we need to get done 😃

Doing something like that seems to actually work:

class Encore {
    /**
     * @returns {Encore}
     */
    method1() {
        // (...)
        return this;
    }

    /**
     * @param {string} test
     * @returns {Encore}
     */
    method2(test) {
        // (...)
        return this;
    }

    /**
     * @param {string} test
     * @returns {void}
     */
    method3(test) {
        // (...)
    }
}

/**
 * @type {Encore}
 */
module.exports = new Proxy(
    new API(),
    { /* ... */ }
);

So we’d need to:

• switch the current const to a class (I tried to keep the const but for some reason that implied adding a @property tag for each method of the API)
• replace all @return {exports}/@returns {exports} by @returns {Encore}
• add the @type tag to the module.exports and instantiate the class
