Tired of using symfony's dump(); method? Use 💩(); instead!

More useful features

Dumping prepared statements

Dumping prepared statements into a readable, and usually executable SQL strings can be useful.

Example 1:

dumpQuery(
    'SELECT 1 FROM x WHERE y = ?',
    [
        1234
    ],
    [
        \PDO::PARAM_INT
    ]
);

Result:

SELECT 1 FROM x WHERE y = 1234

Example 2:

dumpQuery(
    'SELECT 1 FROM x WHERE y = :some_named_value',
    [
        'some_named_value' => 1234
    ],
    [
        \PDO::PARAM_INT
    ]
);

Result:

SELECT 1 FROM x WHERE y = 1234

Dumping request information

dumpRequest();

Result:

To be determined..

Dumping simple XML element objects

Converting and dumping SimpleXmlObjects into a readable string.

Example 1:

dumpSimpleXmlElement(
    simplexml_load_string('<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?><root><someElement>someValue</someElement></root>')
);

Result:

[
    Element {
        Name: 'root'
        String Content: ''
        Content in Default Namespace
            Children: 1 - 1 'someElement'
            Attributes: 0
    }
]

Dumping simple XML element object trees

Converting and dumping SimpleXmlObjects into a readable tree string.

Example 1:

dumpSimpleXmlElementTree(
    simplexml_load_string('<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?><root><someElement>someValue</someElement></root>')
);

Result:

   [0] // <root>
   	->someElement[0]
   		(string) 'someValue' (9 chars)
