Usage

Start the dump server by calling the artisan command:

php artisan dump-server

You can set the output format to HTML using the --format option:

php artisan dump-server --format=html > dump.html

Now you can put regular dump statements in your code. Instead of dumping the output directly in the HTTP response, the dumped data will be shown inside of your terminal / the running artisan command.

This is very useful, when you want to dump data from API requests, without having to deal with HTTP errors.
