************************************
Docker on Linux: Xdebug for PhpStorm
************************************
Docker on Linux allows Xdebug to automatically connect back to the host system without the need
of an explicit IP address.
**Table of Contents**
.. contents:: :local:
Prerequisites
=============
Ensure you know how to customize ``php.ini`` values for the Devilbox and have a rough understanding
about common Xdebug options.
.. seealso::
* :ref:`php_ini`
* :ref:`configure_php_xdebug_options`
Assumption
==========
For the sake of this example, we will assume the following settings and file system paths:
+------------------------------+------------------------------------------+
| Directory | Path |
+==============================+==========================================+
| Devilbox git directory | ``/home/cytopia/repo/devilbox`` |
+------------------------------+------------------------------------------+
| :ref:`env_httpd_datadir` | ``./data/www`` |
+------------------------------+------------------------------------------+
| Resulting local project path | ``/home/cytopia/repo/devilbox/data/www`` |
+------------------------------+------------------------------------------+
| Selected PHP version | ``5.6`` |
+------------------------------+------------------------------------------+
The **Resulting local project path** is the path where all projects are stored locally on your
host operating system. No matter what this path is, the equivalent remote path (inside the Docker
container) is always ``/shared/httpd``.
.. important:: Remember this, when it comes to path mapping in your IDE/editor configuration.
Configuration
=============
Configure PhpStorm
------------------
**1. Ensure Xdebug port is set to 9000**
.. include:: /_includes/figures/xdebug/phpstorm-settings.rst
**2. Set path mapping**
Create a new PHP server and set a path mapping. This tutorial assumes your local Devilbox projects
to be in ``./data/www`` of the Devilbox git directory:
.. include:: /_includes/figures/xdebug/phpstorm-path-mapping.rst
.. important::
Recall the path settings from the *Assumption* section and adjust if your configuration differs!
**3. Ensure DBGp proxy settings are configured**
.. include:: /_includes/figures/xdebug/phpstorm-dbgp-proxy.rst
Configure php.ini
-----------------
.. note:: The following example show how to configure PHP Xdebug for PHP 5.6:
Create an ``xdebug.ini`` file (must end by ``.ini``):
.. code-block:: bash
# Navigate to the Devilbox git directory
host> cd path/to/devilbox
# Navigate to PHP 5.6 ini configuration directory
host> cd cfg/php-ini-5.6/
# Create and open debug.ini file
host> vi xdebug.ini
Copy/paste all of the following lines into the above created ``xdebug.ini`` file:
.. code-block:: ini
:caption: xdebug.ini
:emphasize-lines: 7,10
; Defaults
xdebug.default_enable=1
xdebug.remote_enable=1
xdebug.remote_port=9000
; The Linux way
xdebug.remote_connect_back=1
; idekey value is specific to PhpStorm
xdebug.idekey=PHPSTORM
; Optional: Set to true to always auto-start xdebug
xdebug.remote_autostart=false
.. note:: Host os and editor specific settings are highlighted in yellow and are worth googling to get a better understanding of the tools you use and to be more efficient at troubleshooting.
Restart the Devilbox
--------------------
Restarting the Devilbox is important in order for it to read the new PHP settings.
Note that the following example only starts up PHP, HTTPD and Bind.
.. code-block:: bash
# Navigate to the Devilbox git directory
host> cd path/to/devilbox
# Stop, remove stopped container and start
host> docker-compose stop
host> docker-compose rm
host> docker-compose up php httpd bind
