Kint PHP Debugger

Descripció

This WordPress plugin is a wrapper for the Kint PHP Debugger utility version 1.x. Now instead of using var_dump() or print_r(), you simply use d() with zero, nadda, no formatting required.

Use this tool when you are debugging your website, in place of var_dump(), print_r() and debug_backtrace().

Handy Tools

Some handy tools just for the PHP Developer:

• d( $var ); to render a collapsible UI container which displays your variable data in «the most informative way»
• ddd( $var ); same as d() except that it also executes die() to halt execution.

Here are some variations of d() to give you the display you want:

• ~d( $var ); outputs in plain text format.
• +d( $var ); disregards depth level limits and outputs everything
• !d( $var ); shows expanded rich output
• -d( $var ); attempts to ob_clean() the previous output (dump something inside of HTML)

Profiler

Kint even includes a naïve profiler, which can help you analyze which blocks of code take longer than others:

Kint::dump( microtime() ); // just pass microtime()
sleep( 1 );
Kint::dump( microtime(), 'after sleep(1)' );
sleep( 2 );
ddd( microtime(), 'final call, after sleep(2)' );

See screenshot 2 for what is rendered out in your browser.

Admin Bar

«KINT ACTIVE» indicator displays in the WordPress admin bar to alert you when the plugin is active.
