What is it?

Laravel Debugbar integrates the PHP Debug Bar into Laravel applications. It registers a service provider that attaches a debug toolbar to rendered pages, and it ships with collectors tailored to Laravel, such as query logging with bindings and timing, current route details, loaded views, dispatched events, cache events and mail messages.

The toolbar also shows redirects and AJAX or Livewire requests in a dropdown, and it exposes a facade for adding custom messages, timers and exceptions. Each collector can be enabled or disabled in the config, and the package can be configured to include or exclude its bundled frontend assets.

The project is intended for local development only, since stored request data can expose sensitive information and collecting it adds overhead to each request. It is installed as a dev dependency via Composer, and it also supports Laravel Octane and Twig templates through bundled extensions.

Key features

  • 01Shows SQL queries with bindings and timing
  • 02Displays current route, loaded views and dispatched events
  • 03Lists log messages, mail messages and cache events
  • 04Records custom messages, timers and exceptions via a facade
  • 05Browses stored previous requests and shows redirects and AJAX/Livewire requests

Use cases

  • Diagnosing slow pages by inspecting query counts and timings during development
  • Debugging route, view and event flow in a Laravel application
  • Inspecting AJAX or Livewire requests while building interactive features

Quick start

  1. 1

    Require the package with Composer as a dev dependency

    composer require fruitcake/laravel-debugbar --dev
  2. 2

    Publish the package config to your local config (optional)

    php artisan vendor:publish --provider='Fruitcake\LaravelDebugbar\ServiceProvider'

Things to know

  • Only use it in development; it leaks request information and must not be exposed on public websites.
  • It can slow the application down, so disable collectors if performance suffers.
