README

Better var_dump for PHP.

Features

• pretty configurable (one-configuration-per-instance)
• fully tested (PHPUnit as a test runner + Essence as BDD assertion framework)
• documented (comments in source code + this readme file)
• decent source code, unlike many solutions I've seen previously

Installation

composer require php-packages/dumpy

Usage

It's pretty darn simple.

$dumpy = new PhpPackages\Dumpy\Dumpy;
$dumpy->configure("optionName", "optionValue");
$dumpy->getConfigOption("optionName"); # => "optionValue"
