Symfony type icons for PHP classes
PhpClassFileIconProvider
2026-06-08

Other PHP UX Doctrine Form Console

Decorates PHP class files with Symfony-specific icons so controllers, entities, repositories, form types, and console commands are easier to distinguish in the project tree.

The icon decoration is configurable in the Symfony plugin settings and uses the same Symfony metadata that powers navigation and inspections.

Decorated PHP class types:

#[AsCommand(name: 'app:reindex-products')]
final class ReindexProductsCommand extends Command
{
}

#[ORM\Entity(repositoryClass: ProductRepository::class)]
final class Product
{
}

final class ProductType extends AbstractType
{
}

#[Route('/products')]
final class ProductController extends AbstractController
{
}
Doctrine join column nullable is ignored
DoctrineJoinColumnNullableDeprecationInspection
2026-06-03
Inspection PHP XML Yaml Doctrine Paid

Reports Doctrine ORM mapping metadata that explicitly sets nullable on join columns where Doctrine ORM 3.6 ignores the value and Doctrine ORM 4.0 rejects it.

The inspection covers many-to-many join columns and identifier to-one join columns in PHP attributes, XML mapping files, and YAML mapping files.

Deprecated PHP attribute metadata:

#[ORM\ManyToMany(targetEntity: Group::class)]
#[ORM\JoinTable(joinColumns: [
    new ORM\JoinColumn(name: 'user_id', nullable: true),
])]
private Collection $groups;

Remove the ignored nullable flag:

#[ORM\ManyToMany(targetEntity: Group::class)]
#[ORM\JoinTable(joinColumns: [
    new ORM\JoinColumn(name: 'user_id'),
])]
private Collection $groups;

XML mapping is covered too:

<join-column name="group_id" referenced-column-name="id" nullable="false" />
Doctrine Criteria ordering API deprecations
DoctrineCollectionsCriteriaOrderingDeprecationInspection
2026-06-02
Inspection PHP Doctrine Paid

Reports deprecated Doctrine Collections Criteria APIs around ordering and null offsets.

The inspection detects Criteria::getOrderings(), string order directions passed to orderBy(), and explicit null first-result offsets.

Deprecated Criteria calls:

$criteria->getOrderings();
$criteria->orderBy(['name' => 'ASC']);
$criteria->setFirstResult(null);
new Criteria($expr, [], null);

Use the newer API:

use Doctrine\Common\Collections\Order;

$criteria->orderings();
$criteria->orderBy(['name' => Order::Ascending]);
$criteria->setFirstResult(0);
new Criteria($expr, [], 0);
