Detailed graphic explanation of the configuration and use of PHPSTORM Xdebug

This article brings you relevant knowledge about PHPSTORM Xdebug. It mainly introduces how to configure and use phpstorm Xdebug. Let’s take a look at it together. I hope it will be helpful to friends in need.

Written in front

Because PHP is born with the advantage of "hot loading", many phpers may rarely use the debug function of php. Anyway, I haven’t used debug for a long, long, long time. It must have been 5 or 6 years in retrospect. . .

But for novice phpers, there is nothing more friendly than debug. After all, when I was getting started with PHP, it accompanied me for many years and made a lot of efforts. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a great tool for troubleshooting and solving problems.

The following is a brief record of the configuration and use of phpstorm Xdebug, I hope it will be helpful to you!

Brief principle

Simple C/S understanding: one client (Client) and one server (Server)

Check the installation

Check and install the Xdebug extension of the current php version. I will not talk about the php extension installation

D:\www\oa2>php -m | find "Xdebug"Xdebug

Configure php.ini debug parameters

[XDebug]zend_extension="php_xdebug.dll"xdebug.idekey="PHPSTORM"xdebug.remote_enable =1xdebug.remote_handler =dbgp xdebug.remote_host =127.0.0.1xdebug.remote_port=9011xdebug.max_nesting_level=256xdebug.mode=debug,trace

PHPSTORM Settings

Enter the phpstorm settings menu (Ctrl Alt S), select Languages & Frameworks => PHP, set CLI Interpreters;

Select PHP => Debug, set the debug port, the same as xdebug.remote_port=9011 set in php.ini

Click the Validate button on the current page to verify whether the configuration is successful

Select PHP => Server, configure the server

Set Debug Configurations

This is basically ok. Finally, write a demo to enable monitoring, edit breakpoints, and try the effect of debugging

Interface debugging

When using the interface tool to request the API, you need to add parameters: XDEBUG_SESSION_START=TRUE
For example: laravel5.com/api/test? XDEBUG_SESSION=TRUE;

Please install the Xdebug helper plug-in for browser debugging

Debugging on the command line is even simpler. In fact, it is to configure a php running script
For example: generate a artisan test script, set breakpoints and run debug

Question

How to configure remote debugging?

In the "Settings Debug Configurations" above, I selected "PHP Web Page". You can also select "PHP Remote Debug", which also supports local debugging and remote debugging. This option requires the configuration of an additional IDE Key.
Remote debugging is actually the same, with a little more configuration: mapping of remote code and local code, that’s it!

Since remote debugging is rarely used, detailed screenshots will not be taken. Friends who are interested can try it themselves, maybe they will be used one day. . .
