Docker Hub Image

frxyt/xhgui-dev

Usage

General use

1. See documentation of xhgui and xhgui-collector.
2. Add frxyt/xhgui-dev to your docker-compose.yml file:

   xhgui:
     image: frxyt/xhgui-dev
     ports:
       - 127.0.0.1:80:80

Example in a PHP application running with PHP 7.x

1. Make sure your php and xhgui containers are on the same docker-compose.yml file
2. Make sure you have Tideways XHProf Extension enabled on your php container
3. Make sure your php and xhgui containers are on the same network

   networks:
     private:
   services: 
     php:
       networks:
         - private
     xhgui:
       networks:
         - private

4. Share a volume with PHP vendor path from xhgui to php:

   volumes:
     xhgui-vendor:
   services:
     php:
       volumes:
         - xhgui-vendor:/xhgui/vendor:ro
     xhgui:
       volumes:
         - xhgui-vendor:/xhgui/vendor:rw

5. Start profiling on the first script called by your webserver, typically index.php:

   if ($_SERVER['XHGUI_PROFILING'] && \file_exists('/xhgui/vendor/perftools/xhgui-collector/external/header.php')) {
       require_once('/xhgui/vendor/perftools/xhgui-collector/external/header.php');
   }

6. Configure and enable the profiling

   php:
     environment:
       - XHGUI_PROFILING=1
       - XHGUI_SAVE_HANDLER=upload

Full example

You can see a full example here: tests/docker-compose.yml, tests/index.php.

1. git checkout https://github.com/frxyt/docker-xhgui-dev
2. cd docker-xhgui-dev/tests
3. docker-compose up
4. Browse:
   • The example app: http://localhost
   • XhGui : http://xhgui.localhost

Special environmnent variables for the custom embedded xhgui-collector configuration

This image embed a custom configuration file for xhgui-collector if you mount its volume to your php container and incude /xhgui/vendor/perftools/xhgui-collector/external/header.php in your code. You can take advantage of this by setting environment variables on your php container:

• XHGUI_PROFILING: This variable is not set by default, set it to any value to enable the profiling.
• XHGUI_SAVE_HANDLER: This variable can be set to file, mongodb or upload. Default and fallback is mongodb to respect the original behavior of the library.
  • With file, you must set XHGUI_SAVE_HANDLER_FILENAME to choose where the files will be saved inside your php container.
  • With upload:
    • You can set XHGUI_SAVE_HANDLER_UPLOAD_URI to change the full uri of xhgui import api, defaults to: http://xhgui/run/import.
    • You can set XHGUI_SAVE_HANDLER_UPLOAD_HOST to change the host of xhgui, defaults to: xhgui.
    • You can set XHGUI_SAVE_HANDLER_UPLOAD_TIMEOUT to change the timeout of uploads to xhgui in seconds, defaults to: 3 seconds.
  • With mongodb:
    • You can set XHGUI_MONGO_URI to change the host of xhgui MongoDB database, defaults to: xhgui:27017.
    • You can set XHGUI_MONGO_DB to change the name of the database used by xhgui, defaults to: xhprof.
