To install you must run this code (using the composer).
$ composer require tacnoman/dephpugger
Install globally
In Linux or Mac Os X
Run this command:
$ composer global require tacnoman/dephpugger
And add in your ~/.bash_profile.
export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/.config/composer/vendor/bin
Now, run source ~/.bash_profile and you can run the commands using only $ dephpugger.
In Windows
Sorry for this :/ I don't have Windos SO to run the Dephpugger, but I'm waiting your Pull Request to solve this ;D
But you can use Docker
Using phar file
$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tacnoman/dephpugger/master/dephpugger.phar -O dephpugger
$ chmod +x ./dephpugger
$ mv ./dephpugger /usr/local/bin/dephpugger
Or installing via curl
$ curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tacnoman/dephpugger/master/installer.sh | bash
Install XDebug
To install XDebug in Linux you must run:
$ sudo apt-get install php-7.2-cli php-dev php-pear
$ sudo pecl install xdebug
Find the last line, similar to: You should add "zend_extension=/usr/lib/php/20170718/xdebug.so" to php.ini and copy to your php.ini file. To get the php.ini file, you can run:
$ php --info | grep php.ini
Configuration File (php.ini) Path => /etc/php/7.2/cli
Loaded Configuration File => /etc/php/7.2/cli/php.ini
Copy the zend_extension=/usr/lib/php/20170718/xdebug.so to last line in /etc/php/7.2/cli/php.ini.
Docker
$ docker run --rm -p 8888:8888 tacnoman/dephpugger:latest server
Dependencies
PHP 7.0 or more (not tested in older versions)
Xdebug activate
A Plugin for your browser (If you want to debug a web application)
Plugins for
You can run this commands to check your dependencies:
$ vendor/bin/dephpugger requirements
$ vendor/bin/dephpugger info # To get all values setted in xDebug
# Or in global
$ dephpugger requirements
$ dephpugger info
Usage
To usage you must (after installation) run two binaries in vendor/bin folder.
$ php vendor/bin/dephpugger debugger # Debugger waiting debug
$ php vendor/bin/dephpugger server # Server running in port 8888
# Or in global
$ dephpugger debugger
$ dephpugger server
You must run in two different tabs (in next version you'll can run in an uniq tab). After run theese commands, you need to put the follow line in your code:
# ...
xdebug_break(); # This code is a breakpoint like ipdb in Python and Byebug in Ruby
# ....
Now, you can open in your browser the page (localhost:8888/[yourPage.php]). When you request this page your terminal will start in breakpoint (like the image 1.0).
To debugger a php script, you could run:
$ php vendor/bin/dephpugger cli myJob.php
# Or in global
$ dephpugger cli myJob.php
Comands after run
When you stop in a breakpoint you can make theese commands:
