Installation

Install as a dev dependency:

# composer require glhd/laravel-dumper --dev

Usage

Just use dd() as you would normally, and enjoy the newly curated output!

Original Dump Output

If, for some reason, you really need the full debug output for an object that laravel-dumper customizes, you can do a "full" dump with ddf() and dumpf().

Comparison to Default Output

You can see comparisons between the default dd() output and the laravel-dumper output in the diffs directory of this repository.

Custom Casters

Due to changes in how Laravel registers the var dumper it is no longer possible to register custom casters.
