===

[](#dpr)

Set of utility/debugging PHP functions.

Documentation
-------------

[](#documentation)

### Constants

[](#constants)

#### `DPR_DEVELOPER_IPS`

[](#dpr_developer_ips)

`define('DPR_DEVELOPER_IPS', '127.0.0.1, 192.168.0.1')`
List of comma-separated IPs or false to disable this check. Spaces are trimmed. Declares IP addresses allowed to see the debug info. For users not matching this filter `dpr()` will simply return first passed argument and do nothing.

#### `DPR_SHOW_MEMINFO`

[](#dpr_show_meminfo)

`define('DPR_SHOW_MEMINFO', true)`
Whether show memory info or not

#### `DPR_ENCODING`

[](#dpr_encoding)

`define('DPR_ENCODING', 'utf-8')`
Default encoding to send with `header('Content-Type: text/plain; charset=')`;

#### `$_SERVER['REQUEST_TIME_FLOAT']`

[](#_serverrequest_time_float)

`$_SERVER['REQUEST_TIME_FLOAT'] = microtime(true);`
Optionally you can put this line to the very start of your execution flow to measure request execution time.
If not present, `dpr()` will set it up as the time of `include 'dpr.php';`.

### Functions

[](#functions)

#### `is_developer()`

[](#is_developer)

`is_developer(); // Returns boolean`
Returns `true` if `$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']` is in [`DPR_DEVELOPER_IPS`](#dpr_developer_ips) constant.

#### `dpr`

[](#dpr-1)

`dpr($var : any, ...);`
Basic functionality. Prints variables provided as arguments and stops the script execution.

#### `dprv`

[](#dprv)

`dprv($var : any, ...); // -v for "var_dump"`

#### `dprt`

[](#dprt)

`dprt(); //  -t for "trace"`
Prints backtrace and stops the script execution.

#### `dprb`

[](#dprb)

`dprb(); // -b for "breakpoint"`
Defines a breakpoint for [dprd()](#dprd) function.

#### `dprd`

[](#dprd)

`dprd($var : any, ...); // -d for something like "debug" or whatever`
Triggers [dpr()](#dpr) only if breakpoint was defined with [dprb()](#dprb)

#### `dprm`

[](#dprm)

`dprm($var : any, ...); // -m for "measure"`
Prints all measures made with [dprmFrom()](#dprmFrom)/[dprmTo()](#dprmTo) and then executes [dpr()](#dpr) for passed arguments.

#### `dprmFrom`

[](#dprmfrom)

`dprmFrom($key : string);`
Starts execution time measure named as `$key`.

#### `dprmTo`

[](#dprmto)
