jaxwilko/profiler
=================

[](#jaxwilkoprofiler)

This package aids development by allowing you to profile sections of your codebase.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

```
composer require "jaxwilko/profiler" --dev
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Firstly, you need to [install ext-xdebug](https://xdebug.org/docs/install).

Then add the following to your `php.ini`:

```
[xdebug]
xdebug.mode = develop,gcstats,profile,trace
xdebug.collect_return = 1
xdebug.collect_assignments = 1
xdebug.use_compression = false
```

Once this has been done, you can add the following to your codebase:

```
use JaxWilko\Profiler\Watcher;

Watcher::start();
// execute application logic
Watcher::end(__DIR__ . '/output.html');
```

The filename passed will be used to store the resulting parsed profile. Alternatively you can call `end()`without any params to get the profile as a variable.

```
$profile = Watcher::end();
```

The watcher also supports returning the profile as an array, this can be done as follows:

```
Watcher::setMode(Watcher::OUTPUT_ARR);
$profile = Watcher::end();
```

There are helpers provided to achieve the same functionality:

```
jax_watcher_start();
// execute application logic
jax_watcher_end($outputFile);
```
