This package will give you a tinker server, that collects all your `tinker` call outputs **and** allows you to interact with the variables on the fly.

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

[](#installation)

You can install the package via composer:

```
composer require redmoon/tinker-server
```

The package will register itself automatically.

Optionally you can publish the package configuration using:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --provider=RedMoon\\TinkerServer\\TinkerServerServiceProvider
```

This will publish a file called `tinker-server.php` in your `config` folder.

In the config file, you can specify the dump server host that you want to listen on, in case you want to change the default value.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Start the tinker server by calling the artisan command:

```
php artisan tinker-server
```

And then you can put `tinker` calls in your methods to dump variable content as well as instantly making them available in an interactive REPL shell.

```
$user = App\User::find(1);

tinker($user);
```

In addition to the `tinker` method, there is also a `td` method, that behaves similar to `dd`. It tinkers the variable and dies the current request.
