On the Laravel News site there's a new post sharing a workflow developed by Bill Clark that makes searching the PHP documentation with the Alfred tool easier.

PHP Docs workflow for Alfred by Bill Clark is a workflow for searching the PHP documentation from Alfred directly. The PHP Docs workflow code builds on Till Krüss’ Laravel Docs Workflow for Alfred that we recently covered.

[...] You can search the PHP documentation by opening up Alfred and prefixing your search with “php” and then the search term.

They give an example of how to search the documentation and a screenshot of the resulting list. You can find out more and get this Alfred workflow for yourself over on the GitHub repository for the project.
