I'm beginner on Laravel...
How to debug some value on controller in Laravel, result can show to console like syntax console.log() on javascript?
example controller function :
class TestMeController extends Controller {
public function __construct()
{
$this->middleware('jsonify');
}
public function callMe($id)
{
$params = Request::all();
console.log($id); <== how to write code on Laravel?
}
}
In Laravel use dd($id) or if you don't want to halt the execution, you can use dump($var).
You can still always use PHP's native functions like var_dump, die and print_r.
You can Use these several methods for printing in Laravel.
1. dump($var)
2. dd($id)
3. var_dump($var)
4. die($var)
5. print_r($var)
dd($var) is great because it stops the program after it runs so by moving it around you get a good sense of which line of code is causing an error.
In my case I am using laravel 7 with blade templates and to test my controller (MVC ARCHITECHTURE) I usually use:
return dd($variable)
or even just
return $variable
If you just want to see the data
$events = new Event();
echo "<pre>";
print_r($events->all()->toArray());
echo "</pre>";
die;
Use a return response with json:
return response()->json($dataVar, status_code);
instead console.log();
return response()->json($id, 200);
