PHPStorm: How to find usages of the magic method in the project with Laravel example

Readme.md

How it works?

1. You make a new instance of the Repository class
2. You use reflection to invoke the getUser method on the $repository object
3. You now try to find in PHPStorm (or other IDE which supports it) the usages of the method getUser in your project (Alt + F7)

IDE can't find it until you put the @uses \App\Repository::getUser() in the comments for method which uses it.

Repository.php

<?php
namespace App;
class Repository
{
  public function getUser(): string 
  {
      return 'user123'; 
  }
}

Sale.php

<?php
// Laravel model fetching relation example
namespace App\Models;

class Sale {
   /**
     * @uses \App\Models\SalesGroup::details()
     *
     * @return \Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Relations\HasOne
     */
    public function offer()
    {
        return $this->hasOne('App\Models\SalesGroup', 'id', 'sale_group_id')
            ->with('details');
    }
}

SomeReflectionService.php

<?php
namespace App;
class SomeReflectionService 
{
    private function fetch(string $method)
    {
        $repository = new Repository();
        return $repository->{$method}();
    }

    /**
     * @uses \App\Repository::getUser()
     * @return mixed
     */
    public function fetchUser()
    {
        return $this->fetch('getUser');
    }
}
