Using DebugBar only in local environment

[ludo237]

I've a question and I can't figured it out.

I'm using, locally, your awesome debugbar and it works like a charm. But the problem comes when I publish, remotely, my project and the debugbar is still there.

Inside /boostrap/start.php I've

$env = $app->detectEnvironment(array(
    'local' => array('ludo.*','Ludo-MBPro.*'),
));

That allow me to use a /app/local/ folder for local configuration and it works fine for everythings. How can I enable debugbar to works only in local Env? Is there any kind of setup ? I can't spot it.

Edit: At the moment I've setup the ServiceProvider and the Alias inside the /app/local/app.php file. Is this the best way to handle it?

I would set up the ServiceProvider and alias in app/config/app.php (not local).
The debugbar is by default set to only display when app.debug = true. I would suggest that your production environment doesn't have that set to true.
So if you set app/config/local/app.php with debug=false, it would work.

You can also publish the config and override the values (enable for local, disable otherwise), but you shouldn't have to.
Are you sure your environment get's picked up? You can simply echo App::environment() and see what Laravel detects.

@barryvdh Cool thank you now it work, I forgot the debug variable 👍

in routes.php

if($env == 'local') {
Debugbar::enable();
} else {
Debugbar::disable();
}
