dumpserver

rr-dumpserver

A debugger / dumpserver for Roadrunner.

When I started working with Roadrunner for PHP, I found the debugging experience somewhat frustrating. I've grown used to Laravel's dump and dd functions and wanted something similar for Roadrunner development.

This is an attempat at that. It works as a plugin / Service for Roadrunner that you enable in your dev environment. It serves a UI on a given port where you can see the results of your dump calls.

Those calls are made using the global rrdump helper function.

Sample

Note while the gif mentions gRPC, it's not the case that this is limited to gRPC.

Setup

Appserver

In your main.go:

package main

import (
    // ...
	"github.com/spiral/roadrunner/service/rpc"
	dumpserver "github.com/khepin/rr-dumpserver"
)

func main() {
    // Other service registration
    // ...
	rr.Container.Register(rpc.ID, &rpc.Service{}) // rpc is required
	rr.Container.Register(dumpserver.ID, &dumpserver.Service{})

	rr.Execute()
}

In your .rr.yaml

rpc:
  enable: true
  listen: tcp://127.0.0.1:6001

dumpserver:
  enable: true
  HistorySize: 2000 # How many dumps to keep in memory
  address: :8089

PHP Code

Install the package via composer: composer require khepin/rr-dumpserver

Initialize the dumper with your RPC parameters:

use Khepin\RRDumpServer\RRDumper;
use Spiral\Goridge\RPC;
use Spiral\Goridge\SocketRelay;

$relay = new SocketRelay("127.0.0.1", 6001);
$rpc = new RPC($relay);

RRDumper::setupInstance($rpc);

Usage

From anywhere in your code, just call rrdump($var). Then navigate to localhost:8089 or whichever address / port you've made the dumpserver available at and review the dumped data in your browser.
