Question 166654 in Wordpress Question posted in
The official Wordpress documentation can be found here.

How can I declare a global class in WordPress to avoid Undefined type errors in intelephense in Visual Code?

I’m new to visual studio code and intelephense.
I’m working with WordPress and using a class called WP_CLI which’s a system installed. So, if I’m not wrong, class WP_CLI is not in my path so I get Undefined type 'WP_CLI'.intelephense(1009)

The ideal solution for me would be to be able to tell inteliphense that WP_CLI is defined elsewhere and not to bother with this error. Not to disable Undefined type altogether.

I can’t find the comment to disable it.
I’ve found the similar /** @var int $foo */ for variables but I can’t find the documentation for it so I can do the same with classes.

Is there an option to do that?

    I found installing the stubs for WP_CLI fixes the issue.

    It’s not super clear on how to install the stubs. in your project folder run

    composer require --dev php-stubs/wp-cli-stubs

    in that same folder, you will need a workspace file. they have the .code-workspace extension. in there you need

    {
    "settings": {
        "intelephense.environment.includePaths": [
            "path/to/vendor"
        ]
    }
}

    you also need WordPress in settings.intelephense.stubs

    hope this saves someone some time and let me know if there is a better way
