Seamless Laravel 5 / Kint Integration

I love Kint, but it's a little hard to get it to work perfectly within Laravel. This plugin solves that, and adds some new features as well.

Laravel 5 Documentation Laravel 4 Documentation

Installation

Install with composer

composer require rtconner/laravel-kint "~3.0"

Then add this to config/app.php

'providers' => [
	'Conner\Kint\KintServiceProvider',
];

Optionally setup the config/kint.php file

php artisan vendor:publish

Usage

Use Kint as you would normally.

d($var); // debug dump

s($var); // simple print

There is an also an added feature to allow you to easily dump variables from within blade templates. Notice no semi-colon at the end, and must be on their own line of code.

@d($var)

@s($var)

Configure

To enable configuration first create the config/kint.php file in your app.

php artisan vendor:publish

See config/kint.php for configuration options.

See Kint documentation for details on configuration options.
