codefinder is a lightweight PHP runtime inspection helper. After it is loaded, it prints the list of included PHP files at the end of the request and provides a small search form for finding keywords in those files.

Requirements

• PHP 5.3 or later

Installation

Install with Composer:

composer require fishingboy/codefinder

Usage

Load code_finder.php in the request you want to inspect:

require_once __DIR__ . '/vendor/fishingboy/codefinder/code_finder.php';

When the request finishes, codefinder appends an inspection panel to the page. Without a keyword, it shows all files returned by get_included_files(). After entering a keyword, it searches both included file paths and file contents, then displays matching file names and matching lines.

The search form includes a case-insensitive option.

Notes

• Use this tool only in local development or controlled debugging environments.
• Do not enable it in production responses because it can expose file paths, source code, request data, and other sensitive information.
• The helper writes HTML directly to the response output.
