-Add the helper file to your laravel folder (not in a public folder). The file isn't used by Laravel, but it has to be indexed by your IDE.

+This packages generates a file that your IDE can understand, so it can provide accurate autocompletion. Generation is done, based on the files in your project, so they are alway up-to-date.
+If you don't want to generate it, you can add a pre-generated file to the root folder of your laravel project. (But this isn't as up-to-date as self generated files)

+### Automatic phpDocs for Models
 
-If you don't want to write your properties yourself, you can use the (experimental) command `ide-helper:models` to generate
-phpDocs, based on table columns, relations and getters/setters. Still in beta, so please provide feedback if you want.
-Docs are written to a phpfile (_ide_helper_models.php) in the root of the project, so you can move the docs to the real model.
+> **Note:** Since v1.10 you need to require `doctrine/dbal: ~2.3` in your own composer.json. 
 
-You can now also write the comments directly to your Model file, using the -W argument. Please make sure to backup your models, before writing the info.
-It should keep the existing comments and only append new properties/methods.
+If you don't want to write your properties yourself, you can use the command `ide-helper:models` to generate
+phpDocs, based on table columns, relations and getters/setters. You can write the comments directly to your Model file, using the `--write (-W)` option. By default, you are asked to overwrite or write to a separate file (\_ide\_helper\_models.php) (You can force No with `--nowrite (-N)`).
+Please make sure to backup your models, before writing the info.
+It should keep the existing comments and only append new properties/methods. The existing phpdoc is replaced, or added if not found.
+With the `--reset (-R)` option, the existing phpdocs are ignored, only the newly found columns/relations are saved as phpdocs.
 
-For now, only models in app/models are scanned. The optional argument tells what models to use (also outside app/models).
-`php artisan ide-helper:models Post,User`
+    php artisan ide-helper:models Post
 
-Note: With namespaces, uses \\ instead of \

-This creates a file with the phpDocs for each Model. You should check and change them to be more accurate.
-Also, all relations are Eloquent|Eloquent[] by default, you can change them to the actual Model.
-After copying the phpdocs to your model, you can clear the file, so your IDE only uses the real source.
+By default, models in app/models are scanned. The optional argument tells what models to use (also outside app/models).
 
+    php artisan ide-helper:models Post User
+
+You can also scan a different directory, using the --dir option (relative from the base path):
+
+    php artisan ide-helper:models --dir="app/workbench/name/package/models" --dir="app/src/Model"
+   
+You can publish the config file (`php artisan config:publish barryvdh/laravel-ide-helper`) and set the default directories.
+
+Models can be ignored using the --ignore (-I) option
+
+    php artisan ide-helper:models --ignore="Post,User"
+
+Note: With namespaces, wrap your model name in " signs: `php artisan ide-helper:models "API\User"`, or escape the slashes (`Api\\User`)
