Probe for Laravel
=================

[](#probe-for-laravel)

A debugging and observability package for Laravel applications. Probe records requests, exceptions, queries, jobs, cache operations, and scheduled tasks — then surfaces them in a real-time dashboard.

---

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- PHP 8.2+
- Laravel 10, 11, or 12

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

[](#installation)

```
composer require morcen/probe
```

Run the install command to publish the config and migrate:

```
php artisan probe:install
```

Or publish assets manually:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=probe-config
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=probe-migrations
php artisan migrate
```

Dashboard Access
----------------

[](#dashboard-access)

Visit `/probe` in your browser. By default, access is restricted to local environments. To customize authorization, add the following to your `AppServiceProvider`:

```
use Morcen\Probe\Probe;

Probe::auth(function ($request) {
    return $request->user()?->isAdmin();
});
```

You can change the dashboard path via the `PROBE_PATH` env variable or the config file.

Watchers
--------

[](#watchers)

Probe ships with six watchers. Toggle them in `config/probe.php` or via environment variables:

WatcherEnv VariableDefaultRequests`PROBE_WATCHER_REQUESTS``true`Exceptions`PROBE_WATCHER_EXCEPTIONS``true`Jobs`PROBE_WATCHER_JOBS``true`Queries`PROBE_WATCHER_QUERIES``true`Cache`PROBE_WATCHER_CACHE``false`Schedule`PROBE_WATCHER_SCHEDULE``true`### Query intelligence

[](#query-intelligence)

The query watcher automatically tags slow queries and detects N+1 patterns:

```
PROBE_SLOW_QUERY_MS=100   # queries over this threshold are tagged "slow"
PROBE_N1_THRESHOLD=5      # same query fingerprint N times = tagged "n1"
```

Alerts
------

[](#alerts)

Probe fires notifications when entries match a rule. Configure rules in `config/probe.php`:

```
'alerts' => [
    ['types' => ['exceptions'], 'channel' => 'slack', 'url' => env('PROBE_SLACK_WEBHOOK')],
    ['types' => ['jobs'], 'tags' => ['failed'], 'channel' => 'webhook', 'url' => env('PROBE_WEBHOOK_URL')],
    ['types' => ['queries'], 'tags' => ['slow'], 'channel' => 'log'],
],
```

Supported channels: `slack`, `webhook`, `log`.

Pruning
-------

[](#pruning)

Schedule the prune command to keep your database clean:

```
// routes/console.php
Schedule::command('probe:prune')->daily();
```

Pruning TTLs are configurable per entry type:

```
PROBE_PRUNE_REQUESTS=7
PROBE_PRUNE_EXCEPTIONS=30
PROBE_PRUNE_JOBS=7
PROBE_PRUNE_QUERIES=3
PROBE_PRUNE_CACHE=1
PROBE_PRUNE_SCHEDULE=7
```

To clear all entries immediately:

```
php artisan probe:clear
```

Sampling
--------

[](#sampling)

For high-traffic production environments, record a fraction of entries:

```
PROBE_SAMPLING_RATE=0.1  # record 10% of entries
```

Laravel Octane
--------------

[](#laravel-octane)

Probe supports Laravel Octane. Per-request state resets automatically between requests.

Configuration Reference
-----------------------

[](#configuration-reference)

Publish and review `config/probe.php` for all options. Key environment variables:

VariableDefaultDescription`PROBE_ENABLED``true`Enable or disable Probe entirely`PROBE_PATH``probe`Dashboard URI path`PROBE_STORAGE_DRIVER``database`Storage backend`PROBE_SAMPLING_RATE``1.0`Fraction of entries to record---

Contributing
------------

[](#contributing)

Contributions are welcome. Please follow these steps:

1. Fork the repository.
2. Create a branch: `git checkout -b feature/your-feature`.
3. Write tests for your changes.
4. Run the test suite: `./vendor/bin/pest`.
