[](#dumpedie-)

Another var\_dump like debugging function with special debugging features.

Once upon a time, there was var\_dump ...
-----------------------------------------

[](#once-upon-a-time-there-was-var_dump-)

and var\_dump was our biggest help when it came to debug code. Today, we have debugger in our IDEs that covers nearly every need of a PHP developer, but every now and then, we still need to go back to our var\_dump beginnings. This is where dumpedie can be of help.

An alternative var\_dump
------------------------

[](#an-alternative-var_dump)

dumpedie is an alternative to PHP's build-in var\_dump to debug code when no IDE with a debugger is available. It uses Symfony's VarDumper component in its core to highlight and format the output. You only have to use the function like you already know from var\_dump:

```
dumpedie($var1, $var2, $object);
```

In addition, dumpedie offers some small nifty features.

### Conditions

[](#conditions)

Only output the followed content in dumpedie when a condition set with `dd_cond()` was met.

```
dumpedie($var1, dd_cond('foo' === $value), $var2);
```

This always shows the content of `$var1`, but it only shows the content of `$var2`if the variable `$value` is `foo`.

### Trace

[](#trace)

Sometimes you want to know the whole trace from where your code was called from. `dd_trace()` shows a trace like you know from exceptions and offers you insight to the method's calls.

```
dumpedie(dd_trace());
```
