How to make Firefox Developer Tools display FirePHP messages within console?

4.6k Views Asked by At

I decided to try working with the Firefox Developer Edition. I am writing PHP code for a Joomla site and use Firebug & FirePHP to send data to the console.
While that works fine with the standard Firefox (36.0.4), I get no output with the Developer Edition (38.0a2).

Am I missing something? Should that work OK?

Actually after digging a bit around, found that Firefox Developer Edition already has an integrated server side logging. You can implement it via Chrome Logger, which has also a PHP extension available.

Besides that you can try it with the newest version of FirePHP, but as far as I can tell it works only with Firebug 2.x, which doesn't work while Firefox is working in multi-process mode.

I got the server loggin console working without an issue with Chrome Logger instead of the FirePHP port. And with Firebug.next I can't make it work.

On http://firephp.org/ it says "Coming Soon: FirePHP Extension for Firebug.Next (Firebug 3.0) & Firefox Developer Tools" but no date is given.

Take a look at QuantumPHP. Browser add-on: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/quantumphp/

FirePHP fork that works with the above add-on:

composer require frankforte/quantumphp

If you do not use composer, you can also follow the instructions here: https://packagist.org/packages/frankforte/quantumphp
