You must start up tinker, type the code, press enter, and quit tinker. This package contains an Artisan command to dd anything from the commandline. No need to start and quit tinker anymore. ``` # dumps the first user php artisan dd "User::first()" ``` Support us ---------- [](#support-us) [![](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/f8eea6f7b2aeac4704233a36c4960f23c32c7595330a408d6da65068a285a606/68747470733a2f2f6769746875622d6164732e73332e65752d63656e7472616c2d312e616d617a6f6e6177732e636f6d2f6c61726176656c2d6172746973616e2d64642e6a70673f743d31)](https://spatie.be/github-ad-click/laravel-artisan-dd) We invest a lot of resources into creating [best in class open source packages](https://spatie.be/open-source). You can support us by [buying one of our paid products](https://spatie.be/open-source/support-us). We highly appreciate you sending us a postcard from your hometown, mentioning which of our package(s) you are using. You'll find our address on [our contact page](https://spatie.be/about-us). We publish all received postcards on [our virtual postcard wall](https://spatie.be/open-source/postcards). Installation ------------ [](#installation) You can install the package via composer: ``` composer require spatie/laravel-artisan-dd ``` You must register the `Spatie\ArtisanDd\DdCommand` in the bootstrap file: ``` // bootstrap/app.php ->withCommands([ \Spatie\ArtisanDd\DdCommand::class, ]) ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) You can pass any code you want to execute as the first argument. The result will be dumped to the screen. ``` php artisan dd "bcrypt('secret')"; ``` Multiple pieces of code can be dumped in one go: ``` php artisan dd "bcrypt('secret')" "bcrypt('another-secret')"; ``` Support for short class names ----------------------------- [](#support-for-short-class-names) Under the hood registers short class names using our [laravel-tinker-tools](https://github.com/spatie/laravel-tinker-tools) package. So instead of ``` php artisan dd "\App\Models\NewsItem::first()"; ``` you can do this: ``` php artisan dd "NewsItem::first()"; ``` A word to the wise ------------------ [](#a-word-to-the-wise) This command can run arbitrary code by using PHP's `eval`. Be aware that this can be potentially dangerous. By default the command will only run in a `local` environment. You can make it run in other environments by setting an `ALLOW_DD_COMMAND` enviroment variable to `true`.
