## Installation
2013-08-17 12:47:50 +10:00
The best way to install DebugBar is using [Composer ](http://getcomposer.org )
2014-10-14 10:28:21 +02:00
with the following command:
2013-06-13 18:48:23 +08:00
2014-10-14 10:28:21 +02:00
```composer require maximebf/debugbar` ``
2013-06-13 18:48:23 +08:00
## Quick start
2013-08-16 00:52:32 +01:00
DebugBar is very easy to use and you can add it to any of your projects in no time.
2013-06-13 18:48:23 +08:00
The easiest way is using the `render()` functions
2013-08-28 14:09:50 +02:00
```PHP
< ?php
2014-10-14 18:14:02 +02:00
// Require the Composer autoloader, if not already loaded
require 'vendor/autoload.php';
2013-08-28 14:09:50 +02:00
use DebugBar\StandardDebugBar;
$debugbar = new StandardDebugBar();
$debugbarRenderer = $debugbar->getJavascriptRenderer();
$debugbar["messages"]->addMessage("hello world!");
?>
< html >
< head >
<?php echo $debugbarRenderer->renderHead() ?>
< / head >
< body >
...
<?php echo $debugbarRenderer->render() ?>
< / body >
2013-10-25 16:43:00 -04:00
< / html >
2013-08-28 14:09:50 +02:00
```
2013-06-13 18:48:23 +08:00
The DebugBar uses DataCollectors to collect data from your PHP code. Some of them are
automated but others are manual. Use the `DebugBar` like an array where keys are the
collector names. In our previous example, we add a message to the `MessagesCollector` :
2013-08-28 14:09:50 +02:00
```PHP
$debugbar["messages"]->addMessage("hello world!");
```
2013-06-13 18:48:23 +08:00
2013-08-13 12:29:40 +10:00
`StandardDebugBar` activates the following collectors:
2013-06-13 18:48:23 +08:00
- `MemoryCollector` (*memory*)
- `MessagesCollector` (*messages*)
- `PhpInfoCollector` (*php*)
- `RequestDataCollector` (*request*)
- `TimeDataCollector` (*time*)
2013-06-19 13:15:46 +09:00
- `ExceptionsCollector` (*exceptions*)
