DBug
----

[](#dbug)

**laravel-5-dbug** is a Laravel package that makes your variable dumps look nicer with the [ospintos dBug class](https://github.com/ospinto/dbug). The output is comparable to ColdFusion's cfdump. This repository is a fork from [dlcrush/laravel-dbug](https://github.com/dlcrush/laravel-dbug) with an update for Laravel 5 and a few minor fixes.

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

[](#installation)

1. Add the following to your composer.json under require and then run `composer update`

`"repat/laravel-5-dbug": "~1.*"`

OR

`composer require repat/laravel-5-dbug`

2. Add the Service Provider to the providers array in `app/config/app.php`

```
dlcrush\DBug\DBugServiceProvider::class,
```

3. Add alias in `app/config/app.php`

```
'DBug'			  => dlcrush\DBug\Facades\DBug::class,
```

### Usage

[](#usage)

To dump out a variable, do the following:

```
DBug::DBug($var);
```

To dump and then die, do the following:

```
DBug::DBug($var, true);
```
