PHP Attributes Syntax for Vim

This syntax file adds syntax/highlighting groups for PHP 8 attributes. I wrote this as an addition to the official Vim php syntax which lacks attributes.

Example

Installation

Either copy the file keeping the directory structure to your .vim home directory or use a plugin manager.

Plug:

Plug 'dr0bz/php-attributes-syntax'

Usage

This syntax will introduce few new groups and link them to standard vim sytnax groups:

New Group	Linked To
phpAttributeKeyword	Keyword
phpAttributeClassKeyword	Keyword
phpAttributeBoolean	Boolean
phpAttributeNumber	Number
phpAttributeConstant	Constan
phpAttributeString	String
phpAttributeNamedArgument	Normal
phpAttributeFQDN	Normal
phpAttributeInitClassName	Normal
phpAttributeClassName	Normal
phpAttributeBlock	Comment

You probably want colors that are less intrusive. Since attributes a written in the comment place. You can just take your regular colors and make them darker. For ex. here is my color of Keyword:

#cc7833

Find your's:

hi Keyword

Then use your color picker to make it a bit darker:

#995924

hi phpAttributeKeyword guifg=#995924

Do this to all attribute groups mentioned above.

Good luck and happy coding in vim:)
