## Debugging
27+
28+
The default Docker stack is shipped without a Xdebug stage. It's easy
29+
though to add [Xdebug](https://xdebug.org/) to your project, for development
30+
purposes such as debugging tests or API requests remotely.
31+
32+
### Add a Development Stage to the Dockerfile
33+
34+
To avoid deploying Symfony Docker to production with an active Xdebug extension,
35+
it's recommended to add a custom stage to the end of the `Dockerfile`.
36+
37+
```Dockerfile
38+
# Dockerfile
39+
FROM symfony_docker_php as symfony_docker_php_dev
40+
41+
ARG XDEBUG_VERSION=2.6.0
42+
RUN set -eux; \
43+
apk add --no-cache --virtual .build-deps $PHPIZE_DEPS; \
44+
pecl install xdebug-$XDEBUG_VERSION; \
45+
docker-php-ext-enable xdebug; \
46+
apk del .build-deps
47+
```
48+
49+
### Configure Xdebug with Docker Compose Override
50+
51+
Using an [override](https://docs.docker.com/compose/reference/overview/#specifying-multiple-compose-files)
52+
file named `docker-compose.override.yaml` ensures that the production
53+
configuration remains untouched.
54+
55+
As example, an override could look like this:
56+
57+
```yaml
58+
version: '3.4'
59+
60+
services:
61+
php:
62+
build:
63+
context: .
64+
target: symfony_docker_php_dev
65+
environment:
66+
# See https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-mac/networking/#i-want-to-connect-from-a-container-to-a-service-on-the-host
67+
# See https://github.com/docker/for-linux/issues/264
68+
# The `remote_host` below may optionally be replaced with `remote_connect_back`
69+
XDEBUG_CONFIG: >-
70+
remote_enable=1
71+
remote_host=host.docker.internal
72+
remote_port=9001
73+
idekey=PHPSTORM
74+
# This should correspond to the server declared in PHPStorm `Preferences | Languages & Frameworks | PHP | Servers`
75+
# Then PHPStorm will use the corresponding path mappings
76+
PHP_IDE_CONFIG: serverName=symfony-docker
77+
```
78+
79+
And run :
80+
````bash
81+
docker-compose -f docker-compose.yaml -f docker-compose.override.yaml up -d
82+
````
83+
84+
### Troubleshooting
85+
86+
Inspect the installation with the following command. The requested Xdebug
87+
version should be displayed in the output.
88+
89+
```bash
90+
$ docker-compose exec php php --version
91+
