[9.x] Adds source file to dd function output 💅🏻

[nunomaduro]

This pull request improves the dd output by adding the source file/line to the dd output.

It's very common to use dd while developing Laravel applications and forget about the original place where the dd was left. So, this pull request solves that, by adding a very minimal gray text with the source file/line:

This improvement also works on the HTTP layer, and any dd call on the browser will look like so:

In addition, if the app.editor configuration is defined, the source link will be clickable:

This is awesome!

FYI, Symfony natively supports this since symfony/symfony#31446

There are a few differences of course: we decided to go with a ^ at the beginning of the line instead of a full path. This saves space on the screen when using many dump(). On hover, the ^ displays the file+line info and on ctrl+click the IDE opens at that location.

You might want to have look at the code there and maybe reuse some of the infrastructure.

This looks great! Just a couple of questions:

1. Is there a way to suppress the extra output for cases where we don't want or need it?
2. Are there any concerns with exposing internal application details to the public in the case where a stray dd() is accidentally left behind?
3. Does this also update dump()?

How to enable this feature? I've update to Laravel 9.31.0 but I don't see anything behind my dd. Thanks.

@Pinnokkio it isn't tagged yet but I would guess it comes out in next Tuesday's release.

Have Laravel 9.33.0 and still this doesn't work for some reason

[nunomaduro]

Can you share your "composer.lock" file?

[decadence]

@nunomaduro
composer.txt

[nunomaduro]

I've just used that composer.lock in a fresh Laravel, and it's working for me as expected.

[decadence]

I deleted vendor folder and run composer install, still not working 🤷‍♂️
Ok seems like some problem due to old project.

[Pinnokkio]

Same for me, still not working in 9.33.

[nunomaduro]

@decadence @Pinnokkio What operating system are you using?

[decadence]

Windows 10 and Linux, but I tried only on Windows at this time

[putheakhem]

I have the same problem on Window 10 when update from Laravel 9.25.1 to 9.33.0

[Pinnokkio]

@decadence @Pinnokkio What operating system are you using?

Windows 10, 21H2

[jrd-lewis]

I'm not seeing any difference either on Windows 11, 22H2.

[decadence]

Windows 10 and Linux, but I tried only on Windows at this time

@nunomaduro Works on Linux with the same project. Seems like some problem on Windows.

[nunomaduro]

Fixed: #44451.

[decadence]

Great 💪

[Pinnokkio]

It now works, but does anyone know why it has a different font?

[jrd-lewis]

It now works, but does anyone know why it has a different font?

Maybe because of #44331?

[datlechin]

@nunomaduro can't open array?

[dennisprudlo]

@datlechin How deeply nested is this model? After some levels it's not possible to disclose them anymore.

[datlechin]

@dennisprudlo it’s Collection

Post::all();

@nunomaduro
Laravel 9.36 and still no information about the location of the dd(). composer.lock is updated.
