Code snippets in PhpStorm

I use PhpStorm. I want to make snippets of code and then assign shortcuts to them. I can do it in NetBeans, but in PhpStorm I don't know how to make them.

For example, to add console.log(); in NetBeans, I only type con + space. con is the shortcut that I had defined.

In IntelliJ (the Java IDE) or PhpStorm (the PHP IDE) it is called Live Templates.

Go to Settings and start typing "live templates" in the search box. On the right panel you can edit and create such templates.

So in your case, you simply type "con" in the abbreviation text box and "console.log();" in the template box text area below. You may even change, with which action you want to expand the template (Tab is default, space and enter are possible).

The live template thing is much more complex than what I wrote above. You can use variables and some context information. For further reading, I suggest the JetBrains / PhpStorm documentation.


thank you very much. can you tell me how to change the cursor position?
I find out how. I use this console.log($s$); and then when the editor adds it the cursor moves to the position of $s$.
@AladdinHoms You can use $END$ to specify final position where cursor will end up after all variables (like your $s$) are processed/filled.
As I needed more info I went to PHPStorm's help area here
Remember to enable it for JavaScript. You do that by clicking Define in the text "No applicable contexts. Define" beneath the Template text box.
