Useful debug or tools classes for symfony. As the name of this plugin is quiet generic, don't hesitate to send me your contribution request if you want to add a "tool", "function", whatever could fit in this plugin.

sfToolsPlugin

The sfToolsPlugin provides some tools and debugging functions.

sfDebugTools.class.php

Debugging functions:

• dump() : Dumps an array or object. Displays, dies or returns the result. Note that doctrine objects are automatically detected.
• dump2() : Same function as dump() but more suitable and readable for a console debug.
• getElapsedTime(): Get the elapsed time between 2 time references.

Installation

• Install the plugin:

  $ symfony plugin:install sfToolsPlugin
  

  (download it and unzip in your /plugins directory or use an SVN external http://svn.symfony-project.com/plugins/sfToolsPlugin/tags/RELEASE_1_0_0/)

• Clear you cache

  $ symfony cc
  

Usage

sfDebugTools.class.php

dump():

• Print an object and stop the process

  sfDebugTools::dump($this->getUser()->getAttributeHolder(), '$this->getUser()->getAttributeHolder()', true);

Will output:

  Process stopped by sfDebugTools:dump()
  » file     : C:\wamp\www\symfony1.4.14\apps\frontend\modules\index\actions\actions.class.php
  » line     : 20
  » class    : indexActions
  » function : executeIndex

  $this->getUser()->getAttributeHolder() (sfNamespacedParameterHolder) :
  sfNamespacedParameterHolder Object
  (
      [default_namespace:protected] => symfony/user/sfUser/attributes
      [parameters:protected] => Array
          (
          )

  )

• Print an object without stopping the process

  sfDebugTools::dump($this->getUser()->getAttributeHolder(), '$this->getUser()->getAttributeHolder()', false);

• Retrieve the dump of an object

  $dump = sfDebugTools::dump($this->getUser()->getAttributeHolder(), '$this->getUser()->getAttributeHolder()', false, true);
  echo $dump;

dump2():

Acts the same way as dump() but doesn't display all the backtrace informations.

getElapsedTime():

• Get the elapsed time between 2 time references:

  $start = sfDebugTools::getMicroTimeNow();
  usleep(rand(1, 1000000));
  $end = sfDebugTools::getMicroTimeNow();
  sfDebugTools::dump(sfDebugTools::getElapsedTime($start, $end), 'sleep in seconds', 0);

Will output:

sleep in seconds:
0.7101

Of course if's better to add a shortcut in your base actions class, so you can call it with:

   $this->dump(...);
