follow steps

and download LocalSettings.php

make phpinfo.php available

<?php
  phpinfo();

Install Xdebug

sudo apt-get install php-xdebug php-dev php-curl

2020-02

sudo apt install php-pear
sudo pecl channel-update pecl.php.net
sudo pecl install xdebug

Create first project

New Project "loop" add loop.php in include_path/loop folder

<?php
for ($i = 1; $i <= 10; $i++) {
    echo $i;
}

Try Run / Debug as PHP CLI Application
You'll be asked to add PHP env
Click "add" to add a New PHP Executable
use /usr/bin/php as Executable path
use system default php.ini
Click "finish"
Click "Apply and Close"
Try Run/Debug as PHP CLI Application again
Set breakpoints and debug

2020-10

Also need to configure debugger as asked for by Eclipse - use xdebug.

Create MediaWiki Project

make sure your user is part of group www-data

/var/www/html$ sudo chown www-data.www-data mediawiki-1.33.2
/var/www/html$ sudo chmod g+w mediawiki-1.33.2/
/var/www/html$ sudo chown -R www-data.www-data wiki

Create Eclipse project with "open project from existing source" using /var/www/html/wiki as the source folder

Enable composer in Project's properties There should be only some 20 errors and 60 warnings. Mostly the errors are XMLProblems and ComposerHook ComposerPack issues which are hopefully not relevant.

DLTK Indexing

When first loading the project the DLTK indexing will take place and might take a while ...

Debugging

Setting Eclipse PHP Debug Preferences

Personally I think break on first line isn't helpful because it triggers to often.

Setting breakpoints

Set your breakpoints e.g. in the code e.g. of an extension. Then click index.php and right click "Run Debug as PHP Web Application". You'll be asked for the URL to debug

After clicking "debug" the code will hopefully halt at one of your breakpoints and you can inspect what is going on.

Add Extension to debug

e.g. S5SlideShow

{
	"require": {
		"wikimedia/at-ease": "*"
	}
}

wget https://getcomposer.org/composer.phar
sudo php composer.phar update

Debug Extension

https://www.eclipse.org/pdt/help/html/debugging_a_php_web_page.htm

XDebug

2020-02

/etc/php/7.2/mods-available$ cat xdebug.ini 
zend_extension=xdebug.so
xdebug.remote_enable=On
sudo service apache2 restart

2020-10

/etc/php/7.4/apache2/conf.d# cat 20-xdebug.ini 
zend_extension=xdebug.so
xdebug.remote_enable=On
# only use when really debugging will slow down your apache quite a bit
# https://stackoverflow.com/a/19273025/1497139
#xdebug.remote_autostart=1

try Zend Debugger
