# Hidevara
> Even though Laravel >=6.x includes Ignition which no longer dumps your variables, it requires Whoops itself. And in some cases you can still get to the old error page with variables dumped.
> This package works fine with Laravel 8. I haven't updated it lately because it just works as fine as it did before.
Laravel millipackage that hides your variables from getting dumped in the Whoops page when your app crashes.
`Hidevara` is japonese for `hide the damn vars`.
## Usage
Install it:
``` bash
$ composer require glaivepro/hidevara
```
To deal with the cases where the app crashes before loading providers, you should open your `bootstrap/app.php` and extend the handler. Find these rows (or something similar with another namespace if you've changed that):
```php
// This is already there
$app->singleton(
Illuminate\Contracts\Debug\ExceptionHandler::class,
App\Exceptions\Handler::class
);
```
Immediately after that insert these lines to extend the handler:
```php
// Enable only outside testing as this does not work well with phpunit... see below
if ('testing' != env('APP_ENV')) // this will work even with config caching
$app->extend(
Illuminate\Contracts\Debug\ExceptionHandler::class,
function($handler) {
return new GlaivePro\Hidevara\HidingHandler($handler);
});
```
By default this package will:
- leave your GET and FILES intact;
- hide value of any POST field that has a name containing `password`;
- hide values of SESSION and COOKIE;
- remove almost all SERVER variables (except REDIRECT_STATUS, REQUEST_METHOD, QUERY_STRING, REQUEST_URI);
- remove all ENV variables.
"Hide" means that the value will be replaced with a string. By default it's empty string for null/emptystring values and `[hidden]` for everything else.
## Customization
Publish the config:
``` bash
$ php artisan vendor:publish --provider="GlaivePro\Hidevara\Provider"
```
Now you've got your very own `config/hidevara.php` file to edit.
You'll see a set of rules (`'action' => $test`) associated with each of the variables. The test can be an array of exact field names, string with a regex or `true` to take this action for anything.
Here's an example:
```php
'_GET' => [ //this is the ruleset for fields in GET
'expose' => true, // show all fields
],
'_ENV' => [
'remove' => ['APP_KEY'], // remove key field entirely
'hide' => '/password/i', // hide anything that matches regex contains password
'trash' => '/PUSHER/' // anything that's not 'expose' or 'hide' will remove matched fields
'expose' => true, // expose all that remains
],
'_SERVER' => [
'expose' => ['REQUEST_METHOD'], // show the REQUEST_METHOD
// everything that hasn't matched a rule will be removed
],
```
There are also `replaceHiddenValueWith` and `replaceHiddenEmptyValueWith` where you can supply whatever strings you love (like 🍑).
## Changes to error handling
To hide the global variables from Whoops, they are hijacked/ruined just before calling your `Handler::render()`. If you need access to the original global at that method, you can get them in `$GLOBALS['hidevara']`. For example, `$GLOBALS['hidevara']['_SERVER']` is what `$_SERVER` was.
## Working with PHPUnit
Sometimes (supposedly when an exception is raised) this package crashes PHPUnit. To prevent this, we are not enabling the custom handling when the environment is `testing`.
If you do need to enable this while running PHPUnit, the errors can be prevented by setting `processIsolation="true"` on the `` tag in your `phpunit.xml`.
## Collaboration
Pls help! Here are the open problems and questions:
- We should make a console command that fixes `app\bootstrap.php`. Can we force calling it in the provider if needed?
- What should the default config be?
- Should config allow repeating the same type of rule? It's possible but would make config syntax more complicated.
- Are there better ways to do this in Laravel?
- Can we intercept directly in the Whoopsies `PrettyPageHandler` and make this not Laravel specific?
