Open up XDebug links in PhpStorm under Gnome

Configure XDebug in PHP

Open up your XDebug file (possibly /etc/php.d/15-xdebug.ini) and configure XDebug:

xdebug.remote_enable=1
xdebug.remote_port=9000
xdebug.file_link_format="phpstorm://open?file=%f&line=%l"

Restart your webserver to activate XDebug.

Create a desktop file for PhpStorm

Create a file /usr/share/applications/phpstorm.desktop with the following contents (where PHPSTORM_HOME is actually replaced with the path to your PhpStorm files). You can also use your own personal folder ~/.local/share/applications/ instead.

[Desktop Entry] 
Terminal=false
Name=PhpStorm
Exec=PHPSTORM_HOME/bin/phpstorm.sh %u
Type=Application
Icon=PHPSTORM_HOME/bin/webide.png
X-MultipleArgs=True
MimeType=application/phpstorm;x-scheme-handler/phpstorm;
Encoding=UTF-8
Categories=Development;

Run the following command to install this new file:

sudo update-desktop-database

Modify the PhpStorm script

Open up your PHPSTORM_HOME/bin/phpstorm.sh script and add the following to the top:

url="$1"
if [ ! -z "$1" ]
    then
        url=${url#*file=}
        line=${url##*line=}
        file=${url%%&line*}
        file=${file//\%2F/\/}
        set -- "--line $line $file"
fi

This will make sure that the input-parameters given by XDebug are parsed and turned into the arguments that PhpStorm actually expects.

Works for me.

@yireo What does it mean by XDebug links?
