Laravel Dumper
==============

[](#laravel-dumper)

Improve the default output of `dump()` and `dd()` in Laravel projects. Improves the default dump behavior for many core Laravel objects, including:

- Models
- Query Builders
- Service Container
- Database Connections
- Carbon Instances
- Requests and Responses

    laravel-dumper.mp4    Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Install as a dev dependency:

```
# composer require glhd/laravel-dumper --dev
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Just use `dd()` as you would normally, and enjoy the newly curated output!

Original Dump Output
--------------------

[](#original-dump-output)

If, for some reason, you really need the full debug output for an object that `laravel-dumper` customizes, you can do a "full" dump with `ddf()` and `dumpf()`.

Comparison to Default Output
----------------------------

[](#comparison-to-default-output)

You can see comparisons between the default `dd()` output and the `laravel-dumper` output in the [diffs directory of this repository](./diffs/).

Custom Casters
--------------

[](#custom-casters)

Due to [changes in how Laravel registers the var dumper](https://github.com/laravel/framework/pull/44211) it is no longer possible to register custom casters.
