README

eZ Debug Shell is an interactive CLI debugger for eZ Platform. It is built on top of PsySH and thus acts as a Read-eval-print-loop (aka repl).

It allows you to debug live code in the context of an eZ Publish application, avoiding to create CLI commands.

Install

Global install (recommended)

composer global require lolautruche/ezsh:^2.0

v1.0 is compatible with eZ Publish 5.3+ while v2.0 is only compatible with eZ Platform.

This will install ezsh executable into the ~/.composer/vendor/bin folder.

For ezsh to work properly without hassle, ensure you have ~.composer/vendor/bin in your $PATH:
export PATH=~/.composer/vendor/bin

Project install

You can install ezsh binary in your eZ project with Composer:

composer require lolautruche/ezsh:^2.0

Usage

Usage:
  ezsh [--siteaccess=<siteaccess_name>] [--env=<env>] [--debug] [--version] [--help] [user_login]

Options:
  --siteaccess    -s SiteAccess to use (e.g. ezdemo_site). If not provided, fallbacks to configured default SiteAccess.
  --env           -e Environment to use (defaults to "dev").
  --debug         -d Use debugging if provided. Debug is always on with "dev" environment.
  --help          -h Display this help message.
  --version       -v Display the PsySH version.
  --config        -c Use an alternate PsySH config file location.
  
  user_login      User login (i.e. username) to use to authenticate against the repository. If not provided, anonymous user will be used.

Important: To be able to use ezsh, you first need to be in your eZ project root:

cd /my/ezpublish/root
ezsh --siteaccess=my_siteaccess

This will display something like:
