perfect-print
=============

[](#perfect-print)

Stop wasting your time using print\_r, var\_dump and echo functions to debug your code. Perfect print for PHP debugging is here.

#### Install

[](#install)

```
composer require tetreum/perfect-print "dev-master"

```

---

Example
=======

[](#example)

Having

```
$user = new stdClass();
$user->id = '';
$user->nick = 'luser';
$wrongJson = json_decode('ssdf');
```

> **Normal debug**

```
echo '';
print_r($user);
var_dump($wrongJson);
```

> **Perfect print**

```
p($user, $wrongJson);
```

Perfect print will automatically add and close `` tag for better view and also will make a separation space by using `` or `\n` if you are in cli.

¡Test it yourself!

```
p($obj, 56, false, null, 'sdsf');
```
