Meanwhile, have you checked padawan ? https://github.com/mkusher/padawan.php it's a server made to be used by editors for autocompletion of PHP code (like jedi for python) it works pretty well with vim AFAIK

Yep. https://github.com/mkusher/padawan.php/issues/1

Project started after mine. https://github.com/cweagans/theforce

Just ran out of time, so mkusher did his own thing. I disagree with his direction and I think it's overly complex from a user's standpoint, but he disagrees and isn't willing to change it, so I lost interest in that project too.

Using the actual AST from the PHP interpreter is going to be a) much faster and b) much more accurate.
