How to automatically generate parameter assignations in class constructors in PhpStorm?

Question

Does anyone know how to save typing in PhpStorm when you create a class constructor and you want to assign all the parameters to the respective class fields? I write it by hand

Answer 1

In case you want to have PhpStorm generate the constructor too you can go to Code -> Generate -> Constructor. This will take care of inserting the parameters you want as well as their initialization.

Or press Alt+Insert and choose Constructor...

Answer 2

If you move the cursor to the word '__constructor', within a second or two a lightbulb pops up. when you press it you get an option "Initialize properties". If you select that option a popup appears where you can specify for which argument you want to create and assign a property.

Answer 3

Use "Initialize fields" intention. For that: place caret on one of the parameters and invoke QuickFix menu (Alt + Enter or by clicking on light bulb icon).
