Setting up PhpStorm
From MoodleDocs
PhpStorm is a commercial IDE, it is arguably the best IDE for PHP developers with features such as code completion, code inspection, phpunit support, Behat support, database editor, debugger, etc.
Installation
OS X
Install latest Java JDK 1.7.x from Oracle (Java 1.6 from Apple is not maintained much).
You can hack older PhpStorm 7 to be compatible with Java 1.7 by editing the "PhpStorm.app/Contents/Info.plist" file, set JVMOptions - JVMVersion = 1.7*
General settings
