Debug

A fluent debug() utility for development. Provides quick ways to inspect variables, measure performance, and inspect database tables.

Warning: For development only. Do not use in production.

Setup

Require lib/debug.php in your config.php after setup.php:


require_once(__DIR__ . '/public/local/devkit/lib/debug.php');


debug($var)->dump();    // var_dump
debug($var)->dd();      // var_dump + die


debug($var)->json();    // json_encode
debug($var)->jsond();   // json_encode + die


debug($var)->export();  // var_export
debug($var)->exportd(); // var_export + die

Benchmarks callable(s) in milliseconds:


debug(fn() => heavy())->measure();             // Single callable
debug($fn1, $fn2, $fn3)->measure(iterations: 10); // Multiple, with iterations

Inspect database table structure:


debug()->table('user')->dump();
debug()->table('user', 'course', 'config')->dd();

Get Moodle performance info:


debug()->performance()->dump();
debug()->performance('dbqueries')->dump();

All methods return $this for chaining:


debug($data)->json()->die();
debug($fn1, $fn2)->measure()->json()->dd();
