php debug only outut code example

Example 1: php best debugging functions

A good example of data output to the console via <script> tags, I myself used this first, but he broke the captcha job, because <script> tags were inserted into the base64 code of the captcha picture. Then I began to display logs in the headers with such a function (it may help someone else, in a similar situation):

<?php

function header_log($data){
  $bt = debug_backtrace();
  $caller = array_shift($bt);
  $line = $caller['line'];
  $file = array_pop(explode('/', $caller['file']));
  header('log_'.$file.'_'.$caller['line'].': '.json_encode($data));
}

?>

Usage:
$myvar = array(1,2,3);
header_log( $myvar ); // in headers we see: log_filename_rownumber: [1,2,3]

Example 2: console_log in php

<?php
function console_log($output, $with_script_tags = true) {
    $js_code = 'console.log(' . json_encode($output, JSON_HEX_TAG) . 
');';
    if ($with_script_tags) {
        $js_code = '<script>' . $js_code . '</script>';
    }
    echo $js_code;
}
