silverstripe-ideannotator

This module generates @property, @method and @mixin tags for DataObjects, PageControllers and (Data)Extensions, so ide's like PHPStorm recognize the database and relations that are set in the $db, $has_one, $has_many and $many_many arrays.

The docblocks can be generated/updated with each dev/build and with a DataObjectAnnotatorTask per module or classname.

A word of caution

This module changes the content of your files and currently there is no backup functionality. PHPStorm has a Local history for files and of course you have your code version controlled... I tried to add complete UnitTests, but I can't garantuee every situation is covered.

This module should never be installed on a production environment.
