Add Google Maps documentation for code completion in PhpStorm

Question

I am developing a web application using PhpStorm and I use the Google Maps JavaScript API v3. PhpStorm offers a code completion feature but only if it knows about the library used, of course. So I would like to include the Google Maps library to PhpStorm in order to be able to use code completion but I do not know where to get the .js file from. Does anybody know how to accomplish this task or know the URL for the js library?

Here is what you have to do in PhpStorm (I was using 7.1, but the idea is the same).

Go here and copy a file (I was selecting the latest version) to any directory you want (it will be used only by PhpStorm, not your app, so it does not really matter where will you save it).

After this go to Files -> Settings -> JavaScript -> Libraries. Then click Add and write the name, version and provide a link to your file (in a similar method as in my screenshot).

After clicking Ok and Apply everything should start to work.
