Two exceptions originating from debugbar about debugbar-plugin HOT 8 CLOSED

Hey everyone!

I was able to fix this by making sure the plugin can make use of Laravel Debugbar's config files to ignore the missing auth class that is causing these exceptions.

Since you can't use php artisan publish in OctoberCMS you have to cheat a little bit by providing a own config.php where you copy the contents of Laravel Debugbar's debugbar.php options and write them into the namespace of the package in October at runtime. If you guys think this fix is good enough, I can make a PR. Let me know if you guys think I forgot anything. Here goes!

Steps to follow to fix the issue

Adding Laravel Debugbar's config file to the Plugin

1. Install the plugin as you usually do (composer or marketplace, up to you).

2. After the installation has completed, go to the plugin's vendor folder and copy the contents of Laravel Debugbar's config file. It can usually be found at this location : /plugins/bedard/debugbar/vendor/barryvdh/laravel-debugbar/config/debugbar.php.

3. Go to the root of this plugin's folder and create a new folder called config.

4. In this folder create a new file name config.php.

5. Paste the contents of the debugbar.php file into the new config.php file as is.

You should now have a file at the following location with the contents of the Laravel Debugbar's config file :

/plugins/bedard/debugbar/config/config.php

Loading the config file at runtime

1. Edit /plugins/bedard/debugbar/Plugin.php.

2. Add this namespace at the top of the file :

use Config;

3. Add these lines to your the boot function:

// Setup configurations
$config = Config::get('bedard.debugbar::config');
if (!is_null($config)) {
    Config::set('debugbar', $config);
}

Your boot function should now look something like this :

/**
 * Register service provider, Twig extensions, and alias facade.
 */
public function boot()
{
    // Service provider
    App::register('\Barryvdh\Debugbar\ServiceProvider');

    // Setup configurations
    $config = Config::get('bedard.debugbar::config');
    if (!is_null($config)) {
        Config::set('debugbar', $config);
    }

    // Register alias
    $alias = AliasLoader::getInstance();
    $alias->alias('Debugbar', '\Barryvdh\Debugbar\Facade');

    // Register middleware
    if (\Config::get('app.debugAjax', false)) {
        $this->app['Illuminate\Contracts\Http\Kernel']->pushMiddleware('\Bedard\Debugbar\Middleware\Debugbar');
    }

    Event::listen('cms.page.beforeDisplay', function ($controller, $url, $page) {
        // Only show for authenticated backend users
        if (!BackendAuth::check()) {
            Debugbar::disable();
        }

        // Twig extensions
        $twig = $controller->getTwig();
        if (!$twig->hasExtension(\Barryvdh\Debugbar\Twig\Extension\Debug::class)) {
            $twig->addExtension(new \Barryvdh\Debugbar\Twig\Extension\Debug($this->app));
            $twig->addExtension(new \Barryvdh\Debugbar\Twig\Extension\Stopwatch($this->app));
        }
    });
}

Fixing the exceptions

Now that all this is done, you can go edit your local /plugins/bedard/debugbar/config/config.php and set the auth loading option that is causing the exceptions to false as follows :

    // ...

    /*
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    | DataCollectors
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    |
    | Enable/disable DataCollectors
    |
     */

    'collectors' => [
        // ...
        'auth' => false, // Display Laravel authentication status
        // ...
    ],

    // ...

Replace every steps above, for easier to fix it, just edit the file:

/plugins/bedard/debugbar/Plugin.php

and add the code below on top of the boot() function:

$config = \Config::get('debugbar', []);
if (isset($config['collectors']['auth'])) {
    $config['collectors']['auth'] = false;
    $config = \Config::set('debugbar', $config);
}

I had the same exceptions and I was able to fix it with this code in the file:

plugins/bedard/debugbar/barryvdh/laravel-debugbar/src/LaravelDebugbar.php

Now I get these errors and I don't know how to fix it...

Cannot add AuthCollector to Laravel Debugbar: Class auth does not exist /.../plugins/bedard/debugbar/vendor/barryvdh/laravel-debugbar/src/LaravelDebugbar.php#454

Class auth does not exist /.../vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Container/Container.php#752

Can someone help? Has anyone seen this before?

I am using OctoberCMS 434, PHP 7.0 and Debugbar 2.0.0

Is this plugin abandoned?

I hope not! It's a great plugin, and I am still using it despite the errors.

There's always the option to fix the issues yourself and send in a pull request. 😉

Sorry, I've been focused on other projects and haven't had time to dig into this. I like @eXpl0it3r's suggestion though, I'd happily accept a PR that addressed this issue :)

from debugbar-plugin.

I was able to clean this up by using the suggestion provided by @tientamle along with editing:
.../plugins/bedard/debugbar/vendor/barryvdh/laravel-debugbar/config/debugbar.php
and setting collectors['auth'] to 'false'. (line 196 in my case).
