Installation

Search for PHP LSP in Zed's extension marketplace (cmd-shift-x).

The extension downloads the right php-lsp binary for your platform on first use. If you already have php-lsp in your PATH, it uses that instead.

Configuration

Add settings to your Zed settings.json under the lsp key:

      "initialization_options": {
        "phpVersion": "8.5",
        "excludePaths": ["cache/*", "storage/*"],
        "diagnostics": {
          "deprecatedCalls": false
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

Option	Type	Description
`phpVersion`	string	Target PHP version. Auto-detected from `composer.json` or system `php` if omitted.
`excludePaths`	string[]	Glob patterns to exclude from analysis.
`diagnostics`	object	Per-diagnostic toggles.

Requirements

Pre-built binaries for macOS, Linux, and Windows — no manual setup.
