Krumo is a PHP debug printer and replacement for print_r() and var_dump().

Include the Krumo class file in your PHP project:

include("/path/to/krumo/class.krumo.php");

or

composer require mmucklo/krumo

After Krumo is loaded you have access to the global Krumo functions: krumo(), k(), and kd().

$arr = array(
	'first' => 'Jason',
	'last'  => 'Doolis',
	'phone' => array(5032612314, 4512392014),
	'likes' => array('animal' => 'kitten', 'color' => 'purple'),
);

// Debug print the array, short and long versions
k($arr);
krumo($arr);

// Output the array and then die();
kd($arr);

// Return the HTML output instead of printing it out
$my_html = krumo($arr, KRUMO_RETURN);

// Output the array with all nodes expanded
krumo($arr, KRUMO_EXPAND_ALL);

// The object based method
$krumo = new Krumo;
$krumo->dump($arr);

These options can be passed as the second argument to Krumo to alter behavior:

• KRUMO_RETURN - return the Krumo output instead of printing it
• KRUMO_EXPAND_ALL - start Krumo with all nodes expanded
• KRUMO_SORT - sort arrays before displaying (note: overrides config)
• KRUMO_NO_SORT - do not sort arrays before displaying (note: overrides config)

Krumo will work without a configuration file. If you'd like to change the default settings you can copy the krumo.sample.ini to krumo.ini and change the file appropriately.
