Displaying objects data views

[max13fr]

Hello,

Thanks for debugbar that is really useful !

I just have an issue with the view data collector that is not displaying objects but only the class name (even with options.views.data = true) :

It's really annoying because a lot of data are class in Laravel, like the models.

I tried a little fix in vendor/barryvdh/laravel-debugbar/src/DataCollector/ViewCollector.php (line 137) :

        if (!$this->collect_data) {
            $params = array_keys($view->getData());
        } else {
            $data = [];
            foreach ($view->getData() as $key => $value) {
                // current :
                // $data[$key] = $this->getDataFormatter()->formatVar($value);
                // test using json_encode() :
                $data[$key] = json_encode($value, JSON_PRETTY_PRINT);
            }
            $params = $data;
        }

What do you think about the idea ?
Obviously, it's perfectible, it's just a POC, I think we should try to improve the DataFormatter, it's just to show an example of what I would like to see.

Thanks in advance,
Max

Too much data, and your code is wrong, it should be something like this

if (!$this->collect_data) {
    $params = array_keys($view->getData());
} else {
    $data = [];
    foreach ($view->getData() as $key => $value) {
        if (is_object($value) && method_exists($value, 'toArray')) {
            $value = ['class' => $value] + $value->toArray();
        }

        $data[$key] = $this->getDataFormatter()->formatVar($value);
    }
    $params = $data;
}
