How do I configure buggregator for a vanilla PHP app?

[nsrosenqvist]

The documentation is quite sparse on information on how one would go about configuring xhprof and vardumper if you're just running a vanilla PHP application. The "configuration" sections probably only apply to the packages for Laravel and Spiral, unless I'm mistaken. A what levels of the stack would I need to integrate these systems and how would one go about it? I can't find much good documentation on xhprof

Hey! To configure var dumper for a vanilla PHP application, you just need to use $_SERVER variables. Check this out: Var Dumper Configuration.

Here's a quick example:

// Plain PHP
$_SERVER['VAR_DUMPER_FORMAT'] = 'server';
$_SERVER['VAR_DUMPER_SERVER'] = '127.0.0.1:9912';

You can also set these variables using a bash script.

#!/bin/bash

# Set environment variables for var dumper
export VAR_DUMPER_FORMAT="server"
export VAR_DUMPER_SERVER="127.0.0.1:9912"

For xhprof, it's a good idea to add a setup section for vanilla PHP applications. Thanks for the suggestion! It's not too hard. Just use the spiral-packages/profiler composer package.

Here's an example:

use SpiralPackages\Profiler\Profiler;
use SpiralPackages\Profiler\Driver\DriverInterface;
use SpiralPackages\Profiler\DriverFactory;
use SpiralPackages\Profiler\Storage\StorageInterface;
use SpiralPackages\Profiler\Storage\WebStorage;
use Symfony\Component\HttpClient\NativeHttpClient;

$storage = new WebStorage(
    new NativeHttpClient(),
    'http://127.0.0.1/api/profiler/store',
);

$driver = DriverFactory::detect();

$profiler = new Profiler(
    storage: $storage, 
    driver: $driver, 
    appName: 'My super app', 
    tags: [
        // global tags
        'env' => 'local'
    ]
);

$profiler->start(ignoredFunctions: []);

// Here is your code you want to profile

$profiler->end(tags: [
    // Tags for specific requests
]);

Hope this helps! If you need more details, let me know!

It would be awesome if you could create a PR to the docs repository to improve the documentation for vanilla PHP users. Thanks a lot!

@butschster is this a bug or a misconfiguration on my end?
