Anbu Profiler for Laravel PHP

, _(*3)

Installation

You'll need to add the package to the require section of your Laravel app composer.json file:, _(*4)

"daylerees/anbu": "~1.0@alpha"

First ensure that you have a database, and that it is configured with Laravel., _(*5)

Next add the following service provider to app/config/app.php:, _(*6)

'Anbu\ProfilerServiceProvider',

Next use the asset:publish command for Artisan to publish profiler asset files., _(*7)

php artisan asset:publish

Finally, execute a page of your application and click on the Laravel icon in the lower left., _(*8)

Timers

If you want to use Anbu timers, you'll need to include the Facade in the app/config/app.php file:, _(*9)

'Anbu' => 'Anbu\Facades\Anbu',

Now you can create timers like this:, _(*10)

Anbu::timers()->start('test');
sleep(30); // Do something interesting here.
Anbu::timers()->end('test', 'Completed doing something.');

Debug

When you use dd() you risk exposing information to the users of your application. Instead, use ad() to dump this data into the 'Debug' section of Anbu., _(*11)

ad('foo');

Hide & Disable

First let me explain the two concepts., _(*12)

To hide is to eliminate the Laravel icon button from requests, so that it won't interfere with certain content types., _(*13)

To disable is to stop the profiler from storing the request, and displaying the button. Data for this request will be lost., _(*14)

You can hide the profiler using:, _(*15)

Anbu::hide();

Or you can apply the anbu.hide filter as a before filter to any route or route group., _(*16)

You can disable the profiler using:, _(*17)

Anbu::disable();

Or you can apply the anbu.disable filter as a before filter to any route or route group., _(*18)

Problems?

If a new module is added, then you might get an error when rendering a previous request., _(*19)

Here's some things you can try if you have any problems. First you can try updating Anbu with:, _(*20)

composer update

Secondly you can clear the previous requests with the following Artisan command., _(*21)

php artisan anbu:clear

Let me know about other issues!, _(*22)
