- 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
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.
Debugging
Set your breakpoints e.g. in the code 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
Add Extension to debug
e.g. S5SlideShow
{
"require": {
"wikimedia/at-ease": "*"
}
}
wget https://getcomposer.org/composer.phar
sudo php composer.phar update
Debug Extension
XDebug
/etc/php/7.2/mods-available$ cat xdebug.ini
zend_extension=xdebug.so
xdebug.remote_enable=On
sudo service apache2 restart
