This extra integrates phpconsole into the MODX CMS. You will see all $modx->log() calls in phpconsole instead of the default error log. You can also use $modx->phpconsole->send($anything) to send any data to phpconsole. You can even log XPDOObjects with phpconsole, since they are automatically converted to an array.

You can either use the system setting phpconsole.config (JSON string) for the configuration of phpconsole or you can save your configuration into a phpconsole-config.inc.php file (PHP array) into your MODX config folder. This is a basic JSON configration for your phpconsole.config system setting:

{
    "debug": 0,
    "defaultProject": "default",
    "projects": {
        "default": {
            "apiKey": "your-api-key-here",
            "encryptionPassword": "optional-end-to-end-encryption-password"
        }
    },
    "backtraceDepth": 3,
    "cookiesAllowed": 1
}

For more information about the configuration please follow the phpconsole docs: https://github.com/phpconsole/phpconsole/blob/master/CONFIGURATION.md

You can install phpconsoleX via the MODX Package Manager. Make sure to update the configuration after the installation – you need to add your api key!
