Making PHP var_dump() values display one line per value

Question

When I echo var_dump($_variable), I get one long, wrapping line with all varable\'s and values like

[\"kt_login_user\"]=>  string(8) \"teacher1\" [\"kt_lo         


        

Answer 1

Personally I like the replacement function provided by Symfony's var dumper component

Install with composer require symfony/var-dumper and just use dump($var)

It takes care of the rest. I believe there's also a bit of JS injected there to allow you to interact with the output a bit.
