Provide custom logging and error handling.
Debugger extends PHP's default error handling and gives simpler to use more powerful interfaces.
array
Runtime config
bool
Whether the config property has already been configured with defaults
array
Holds current output data when outputFormat is false.
array
Default configuration
string
The current output format.
array
Templates used when generating trace or error strings. Can be global or indexed by the format value used in $_outputFormat.
array
A map of editors to their link templates.
Wraps the highlight_string function in case the server API does not implement the function as it is the case of the HipHop interpreter
Verifies that the application's salt and cipher seed value has been changed from the default value.
Merge provided config with existing config. Unlike config()
which does a recursive merge for nested keys, this method does a simple merge.
Protected export function used to keep track of indentation and recursion.
Export an array type object. Filters out keys used in datasource configuration.
Get the configured export formatter or infer one based on the environment.
Creates an entry in the log file. The log entry will contain a stack trace from where it was called.
Takes a processed array of data from an error and displays it in the chosen format.
Sets configurable masking of debugger output by property name and array key names.
Shortens file paths by replacing the application base path with 'APP', and the CakePHP core path with 'CORE'.
__construct()
Constructor.
_configDelete(string $key)
Deletes a single config key.
string
$key Key to delete.
Cake\Core\Exception\Exception
_configRead(?string $key)
Reads a config key.
string|null
$key Key to read.
mixed
_configWrite(mixed $key, mixed $value, mixed $merge)
Writes a config key.
string|array
$key Key to write to.
mixed
$value Value to write.
bool|string
$merge optional True to merge recursively, 'shallow' for simple merge, false to overwrite, defaults to false.
Cake\Core\Exception\Exception
_highlight(string $str)
Wraps the highlight_string function in case the server API does not implement the function as it is the case of the HipHop interpreter
string
$str The string to convert.
string
addEditor(string $name, mixed $template)
Add an editor link format
Template strings can use the {file}
and {line}
placeholders. Closures templates must return a string, and accept two parameters: The file and line.
string
$name The name of the editor.
string|\Closure
$template The string template or closure
addFormat(string $format, array $strings)
Add an output format or update a format in Debugger.
Debugger::addFormat('custom', $data);
Where $data is an array of strings that use Text::insert() variable replacement. The template vars should be in a {:id}
style. An error formatter can have the following keys:
id
, error
, code
, description
, path
, line
, links
, info
code
, context
and trace
. Will be set with the contents of the other template keys.trace
id
, context
code
, context
, help
. See the JS output format for an example.reference
, path
, line
Alternatively if you want to use a custom callback to do all the formatting, you can use the callback key, and provide a callable:
Debugger::addFormat('custom', ['callback' => [$foo, 'outputError']];
The callback can expect two parameters. The first is an array of all the error data. The second contains the formatted strings generated using the other template strings. Keys like info
, links
, code
, context
and trace
will be present depending on the other templates in the format type.
string
$format Format to use, including 'js' for JavaScript-enhanced HTML, 'html' for straight HTML output, or 'txt' for unformatted text.
array
$strings Template strings, or a callback to be used for the output format.
array
The resulting format string set.
