Easy debugging, profiling and tracing extension for Xdebug
Image from store
Description from store
A must have for everyone thats debugging, profiling and tracing PHP code with Xdebug. This extension will help you to enable/disable debugging, profiling and tracing easily, instead of juggling around with POST/GET variables or cookies.
This extension is very useful for PHP developers that are using PHP tools with Xdebug support like PHPStorm, Eclipse with PDT, Netbeans and MacGDBp or any other Xdebug compatible profiling tool like KCacheGrind, WinCacheGrind or Webgrind.
By default the extension icon will show up on all pages, but to keep your browser as clean as possible, the extension can be configured to be only visible at the pages you want in the settings panel.
Hotkeys:
- Ctrl+Shift+X (Cmd+Shift+X on Mac) opens the popup.
- Alt+Shift+X toggles the debugging state.

- (2025-03-13) Michael Spiegel: Is no longer working after the latest Chrome Update. Checkout the alternative from JetBrains: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/xdebug%20extension/aoelhdemabeimdhedkidlnbkfhnhgnhm

- (2024-04-22) Pavel Besedovskij: Latest version of chrome on Windows is with JS error. I had to clear the cookies to make sites working without XDEBUG Seems like the issue is due to wrong implementation of this method https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/reference/api/tabs#method-sendMessage - it accepts 4 arguments, with a callback as the last one, while in extension it is 3rd argument: // Request the current state from the active tab chrome.tabs.query({ active: true, windowId: chrome.windows.WINDOW_ID_CURRENT }, function(tabs) { chrome.tabs.sendMessage( tabs[0].id, { cmd: "getStatus", idekey: ideKey, traceTrigger: traceTrigger, profileTrigger: profileTrigger }, function(response) { // Highlight the correct option $('a[data-status="' + response.status + '"]').addClass("active"); } ); });

- (2022-08-07) Lee McCall: The profiler works for me using xdebug 3.1.5 and PHP 8.1.9. If its not working for you, maybe you don't have your xdebug settings configured correctly.

- (2022-06-09) Jeremy Simkins: Doesn't work for xdebug 3. Can no longer turn on or off debug and it just doesn't work like it did for xdebug 2.

- (2021-04-09) Bartosz Telesiński: Nice tool, but can it be upgraded so it plays nice with Frontend app (Angular) with PHP API backend? Probably Chrome started to prevent something.

- (2019-08-09) Mohammad Aghanabi: It just listens on 9000 port and doesn't allow users to change it. So if in your environment the default xdebug port is already busy, you can't utilize this extension.
