You can also access commands from contextual menu when clicking on a class property:

Extension Settings

This extension contributes the following settings:

phpGettersSetters.spacesAfterParam: Number of spaces to insert between @param tag and variable name in doc blocks. Default: 2
phpGettersSetters.spacesAfterParamVar: Number of spaces to insert after the variable name in the @param tag line. Default: 2
phpGettersSetters.spacesAfterReturn: Number of spaces to insert after the @return tag. Default: 2
phpGettersSetters.redirect: Redirect editor to generated functions after generating them? Default: true
phpGettersSetters.templatesDir: Folder where custom templates are stored
phpGettersSetters.getterTemplate: File to use as template for getters. Default: getter.js
phpGettersSetters.setterTemplate: File to use as template for setters. Default :setter.js

Custom Templates

By default this extension will use a custom function to generate your getters & setters but you can fully customise the markup used to generate them. By default templates are stored in:

Linux: ~/.config/Code/User/phpGettersSetters
OSX: ~/Library/Application Support/Code/User/phpGettersSetters
Windows: %APPDATA%\Code\User\phpGettersSetters

You can also set a custom templates dir entering a custom folder in phpGettersSetters.templatesDir setting.

Template Literals are used for templating because the flexibility they provide. With them you can easily create a custom template with no knowledge and also invest some time for complex things. For advanced usage you will have to google about template literals but here are 2 sample templates.

Sample getter.js template:

module.exports = (property) => `
	/**
	 * ${property.getterDescription()}
	 *
	 * @return  ${property.getType() ? property.getType() : 'mixed'}
	 */
	public function ${property.getterName()}()
	{
		return $this->${property.getName()};
	}
`

Sample setter.js template:

module.exports = (property) => `
	/**
	 * ${property.setterDescription()}
	 *
	 * @param   ${property.getType() ? property.getType() : 'mixed'}  \$${property.getName()}  ${property.getDescription() ? property.getDescription() : ''}
	 *
	 * @return  self
	 */
	public function ${property.setterName()}(${property.getTypeHint() ? property.getTypeHint() + ' ' : '' }\$${property.getName()})
	{
		$this->${property.getName()} = \$${property.getName()};

		return $this;
	}
`

As you can see a Property object is passed to templates so you can access any public method there. I also like the idea of adding more stuff as users find limits. Open an issue if you find something you cannot achieve.
