README

Adds the ability to dump only when the dump server is online.

Introduction

This package leverages the beyondcode/laravel-dump-server package, but extends it by adding some globally available functions. While having a dump server is great, there are times where I've wanted to change the content of dump if it's going to the dump server versus the browser. Additionally, I've also had use-cases where I didn't want to dump at all unless I knew it was going to the dump server.

Installation

Using Composer

composer require reedware/laravel-dump-to-server

This package is intentially light-weight, and only requires the beyondcode/laravel-dump-server package as a dev dependency. This means that you can install the package on a production environment without including dump server (assuming you have required dump server as a dev dependency). The helpers introduced by this package are aware of when the dump server package is not present.

This package uses an auto-discovered service provider.

Versioning

This package supports Laravel 6.0 and onward.

For Laravel 5.6 support, use version 1.x of this package.

Usage

Here are the two helper functions that this package introduces:

isDumpServerOnline() // Returns true/false
dumpToServer() // Performs a typical dump, but only when the dump server is online

You can use them however you like.
