PhpStorm 6.0.1 Web Help

PhpStorm supports developing and running Dart source code. PhpStorm recognizes *.dart files, and allows you to edit them providing full range of coding assistance. Dart files are marked with the icon_dart.png icon.

To run and debug your code you will need it translated into JavaScript, which requires a transpiler.

Preparing for Dart development
  1. Download the Dart SDK.
  2. Make sure the Dart plugin is installed and enabled.

    The plugin is not bundled with PhpStorm, but it is available from the PhpStorm plugin repository. Once enabled, the plugin is available at the IDE level, that is, you can use it in all your PhpStorm projects.

  3. To configure the Dart SDK in PhpStorm, click the Dart Settings button icon_dart.png on the toolbar. The Dart Settings dialog opens.
    1. In the Choose Dart SDK Home Path text box, specify the location of the downloaded Dart SDK. Type the path manually or click the Browse button browseButton.png and choose the path in the dialog box that opens.

      If PhpStorm recognizes the Dart SDK correctly, it displays the revision number of the detected SDK.

    2. To activate the SDK, select the Dart SDK enabled check box.
    3. If applicable, change the scope of the SDK. Click the Edit usage scope link and update the default settings in the Usage Scope dialog box that opens. By default the SDK is used at the PhpStorm level.
