Starburst_Debug_Console - Debugging and profiling console for Solar

Solar is a framework for PHP5. Starburst_Debug_Console is a debugging and
profiling console for Solar applications. Once installed, you will see a console
on top of your website which has information about the request and PHP environment.

Features:

• No coding needed. You only need to set a few config values.
• SQL profiler (through Solar_Sql)
• Log viewer (through integrated custom log writer for Solar_Log)
• PHP environment view ($_SERVER variables)

Installation

1. Install the files somewhere in your project.

   I recommend using the “Solar system” project structure. In this case you should
   put the files under $system/source/starburst-debug-console.

2. Add Starburst directory to your include_path.

   If your project is a “Solar system”, you can add it to include_path with:

    cd $system/include  
    ln -s ../source/starburst-debug-console/Starburst .
   

3. Add symlinks to your Public dir.

    cd $system/docroot/public  
    ln -s ../../source/starburst-debug-console/Starburst/Debug/Console/Public ./Starburst_Debug_Console
   

4. Configure the debug console.

   Here’s an example configuration:

    // turn on SQL query profiling
    $config['Solar_Sql']['profiling'] = true;
    
    $config['Solar']['registry_set']['debug-report'] = 'Starburst_Debug_Console';
    
    $config['Solar']['registry_set']['log'] = array('Solar_Log', array(
        'adapter'   => 'Starburst_Log_Adapter_Var',
        'events'    => array('notice', 'debug', 'warning'),
    ));
    
    // display only when in browser
    if (PHP_SAPI != 'cli') {
        // this will display the console
        $config['Solar']['stop'][] = array('debug-report', 'display');
    }
   

   You might want to put the configuration inside a conditional so that the console
   is shown only in development environment.
