How to debug PHP in Visual Studio Code (Simple steps)

Показать описание

I set up my debugger today and created this quick video to help you in case you want to debug PHP in Visual Studio Code.

Settings to enter in PHP.ini (from the video)

zend_extension = xdebug

[XDebug]

There are many "how to" xdebug setup videos for PHP in VS Code. None of them explained this at all. This is the only video that actually worked. Who knew the settings.json line items had to be manually inserted? Nobody has explained this before. Now I can accelerate my work to a much greater degree. I am very grateful my friend.

Thanks, Jeet.
You seem to have made light of the reality that many cannot do the "step through" the code! You focused on set-up which is very helpful. But what use is set-up when I can't use it!

Thank you so much. Very helpful for me. Don't meet any problem while installing. Just following your video step by step. Great

On a new VSCode install the debug options for running in browser are not there - it seems some step was missed - you must have some other extension installed or configuration you did not go over.

Also telling people to use search for the settings.json only works if you've ever opened it before
settings.json is stored in
but would be easier to find if you told folks to go to the PHP Debug addon then click on the settings icon then select extension settings then click the "edit in settings.json" to find it

The video was fairly helpful but it's assuming a lot - probably because you already have things installed and configured that you take for granted.

Thanks Jeet.
A useful and informative video but I am having some problems.
I have installed XAMP and Xdebugger and it seems to work for debugging current open script and I can step through code etc.
However, the option for "Listening for Xdebug" does not seem to be working and the debugger does not start when I load the local Web page on APache?
Can you offer any further help is to what may be wrong?
