Hi all,
I was wondering what php-debug workflow you use in combination with our favorite texteditor TextMate.
I do not want to use a massive and expensive IDE (like phpStorm), just TM.
Now I've setup Xdebug (MAMP-PRO), with xdebug.file_link_format set in php.ini. So on a error in the browser I can click on the link, and the related file is opening in TM on the good position! I did not found any TM-bundles for Xdebug in order to set breakpoints (via markers?).
Maybe a suggestion is Codebug (http://codebugapp.com). But there is no integration with TM like they have for Sublime Text (http://codebugapp.com/using-codebug-sublime-text/ and https://nateofnine.com/2014/05/30/sublime-text-xdebug-client/)
Do you have better suggestions for debugging PHP using TM and Xdebug?
Have a nice weekend, Feek

I don't, debugging is the only thing that I use phpStorm for. I did try MacGDBp but it was so buggy I gave up. If you do find a solution, please do share.

Hi George,
Thnx for the reply. PhpStorm is to massive. After about 1hr testing of the trial, I've deleted the App. That's not the app for me :(
Codebug is not bad, but I do not know if the app is abandonware or not...
I hope there is someone else with an other suggesting!
regards, Feek

Hi Feek,
Probably not what you want to hear but I’ve gotten along fine with using the built in PHP tools: echo, print, print_r, var_dump, debug_backtrace. On the browser side: inspection tools to trace JS and console.log is nice. Also writing out to a file when doing any sort of AJAX or other remote delivery work.
I agree that it would be nice to have a worthy debugger to speed things up but until one comes along that works as smoothly as XCode or Visual Studio (gasp!) building desktop apps, I’ll keep going old school.

Thnx Ed,
No problem at all, I'am just seeking a improved workflow. When that will be just better/improved own debug php functions, I've no problem with that.
So I also appreciate a good source of debug php functions using f.e. Xdebug (I did not find jet) that I can use to print_r to my php_debug.log file and "tail -f" in iTerm.

You could try MacGDBp.. Its a Cocoa PHP debugger, which uses XDebug
I've had some good success with it in the past, but admittedly I haven't used it in a while, so I don't know if it 'understands' the latest PHP language features
https://www.bluestatic.org/software/macgdbp/ As it happens, their website is down right now, but I was on there yesterday
No new version in a while, but there are recent changes to the github so it hasn't been abandoned... https://github.com/rsesek/MacGDBp

Hi Carpii,
Yes, I also found MacGDBp. That's similar to Codebug, but even less scriptable via TM.
Finally I've chosen my setup (for the time being):. Is a terminal based setup and VIM.
I've installed: https://github.com/brookhong/DBGPavim
And I have a TM-command thats opens the current TM-file on the current line in VIM:
I've also a Keyboard Maestro macro that runs the TM-command, goes to the iTerm/VIM window, set a breakpoint at the current line, starts the debugger to listen, goes to the browser, reload the page, goes back to iTerm and start the debugger. See: http://textmate.1073791.n5.nabble.com/file/n29968/tm-debug.jpg
So with one keyboard shortcut in TM I start the debugger :) (I was not able to do that via Codebug or MacGDBp).
But of course, it would be nice when the Xdebug functionality could be implemented in the TM PHP-bundle :)

Hi,
because I post via Nabble.com, I see that my TM-command did not show up in the e-mail:
=== Code
#!/usr/bin/env bash
[[ -f "${TM_SUPPORT_PATH}/lib/bash_init.sh" ]] && . "${TM_SUPPORT_PATH}/lib/bash_init.sh"
# Open current file on current line in VIM in a iTerm session
osascript << END if application "iTerm" is running then -- iTerm is running if (count windows of application "iTerm") is 0 then -- NO window is found tell application "iTerm" set newWindow to (create window with default profile) tell current window tell current session write text "vi +$TM_LINE_NUMBER "$TM_FILEPATH"" end tell end tell end tell else -- Window(s) Found tell application "iTerm" select first window tell current window set newTab to (create tab with default profile) tell current session write text "vi +$TM_LINE_NUMBER "$TM_FILEPATH"" end tell end tell --set newWindow to (create window with default profile) end tell end if else -- iTerm is NOT running tell application "iTerm" activate tell current window tell current session write text "vi +$TM_LINE_NUMBER "$TM_FILEPATH"" end tell end tell end tell end if END

Seems like https://github.com/brookhong/DBGPavim would be a good place to start for a TM2 native version.
