Artisan's tinker command is a great way to tinker with your application in the terminal. Unfortunately running a few lines of code, making edits, and copy/pasting code can be bothersome. Wouldn't it be great to tinker in the browser?

This package will add a route to your application where you can tinker to your heart's content.

In case light hurts your eyes, there's a dark mode too.

## Support us

[](https://spatie.be/github-ad-click/laravel-web-tinker)

We invest a lot of resources into creating [best in class open source packages](https://spatie.be/open-source). You can support us by [buying one of our paid products](https://spatie.be/open-source/support-us).

We highly appreciate you sending us a postcard from your hometown, mentioning which of our package(s) you are using. You'll find our address on [our contact page](https://spatie.be/about-us). We publish all received postcards on [our virtual postcard wall](https://spatie.be/open-source/postcards).

## 🚨 A word to the wise 🚨

This package can run arbitrary code. Unless you know what you are doing, you should never install or use this in a production environment, or any environment where you handle real world data.

## Installation

You can install the package via composer:

```bash
composer require spatie/laravel-web-tinker --dev
```

Next, you must publish the assets from this package by running this command.

```bash
php artisan web-tinker:install
```

Optionally, you can publish the config file of the package.

```bash
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Spatie\WebTinker\WebTinkerServiceProvider" --tag="config"
```

This is the content that will be published to `config/web-tinker.php`

```php
return [

/*
* The web tinker page will be available on this path.
*/
'path' => '/tinker',

/*
* Possible values are 'auto', 'light' and 'dark'.
*/
'theme' => 'auto',

/*
* By default this package will only run in local development.
* Do not change this, unless you know what your are doing.
*/
'enabled' => env('APP_ENV') === 'local',

/*
* This class can modify the output returned by Tinker. You can replace this with
* any class that implements \Spatie\WebTinker\OutputModifiers\OutputModifier.
*/
'output_modifier' => \Spatie\WebTinker\OutputModifiers\PrefixDateTime::class,

/*
* These middleware will be assigned to every WebTinker route, giving you the chance
* to add your own middlewares to this list or change any of the existing middleware.
*/
'middleware' => [
Illuminate\Cookie\Middleware\EncryptCookies::class,
Illuminate\Session\Middleware\StartSession::class,
Spatie\WebTinker\Http\Middleware\Authorize::class,
],

/*
* If you want to fine-tune PsySH configuration specify
* configuration file name, relative to the root of your
* application directory.
*/
'config_file' => env('PSYSH_CONFIG', null),
];
```

## Usage

By default this package will only run in a local environment.

Visit `/tinker` in your local environment of your app to view the tinker page.

## Authorization

Should you want to run this in another environment (we do not recommend this), there are two steps you must perform.

1. You must register a `viewWebTinker` ability. A good place to do this is in the `AuthServiceProvider` that ships with Laravel.

```php
public function boot()
{
$this->registerPolicies();

Gate::define('viewWebTinker', function ($user = null) {
// return true if access to web tinker is allowed
});
}
```

2. You must set the `enabled` variable in the `web-tinker` config file to `true`.

## Modifying the output

You can modify the output of tinker by specifying an output modifier in the `output_modifier` key of the `web-tinker` config file. An output modifier is any class that implements `\Spatie\WebTinker\OutputModifiers\OutputModifier`.

This is how that interface looks like.

```php
namespace Spatie\WebTinker\OutputModifiers;

interface OutputModifier
{
public function modify(string $output = ''): string;
}
```

The default install of this package will use the `PrefixDataTime` output modifier which prefixes the output from Tinker with the current date time.

## Testing

``` bash
composer test
```
