How to debug? Any tips

How do you guys debug?
Can I print to log?

https://github.com/tastyigniter/ti-ext-debugbar Should help. Or laravel ray or any other laravel debug package.

I have set debug to true in config/app.php. The debug bar did not appear, is there anything else I should do?

Did you add that extension?

yes, I added the extension, it is showing in my extension folder as well :/

Also, i’m trying to use the debugbar info method to print "Debugbar::info(“hello”)" but getting some errors. Which DebugBar file should I import?

Please read the readme associated with the extension as it refers you to the laravel debug bar docs which clearly show you to use

Barryvdh\Debugbar\Facades\Debugbar

Hey Ryan thanks for the help. I’m not able to get it to show and use debugbar methods in my files.

I get “Class ‘Barryvdh\Debugbar\Facades\Debugbar’ not found” when I use the method Debugbar::info(“hello”).

I added

'aliases' => array_merge(include(app_path('system/aliases.php')), [
    // Example
    'Debugbar' => Barryvdh\Debugbar\Facades\Debugbar::class,
]),

to the app.php as well

Not sure sorry. I don’t use it myself.

My .env was in production, I changed it to development and the debugbar appeared!
