FirePHP class

Here is a new FirePHP library for printing variables to the firebug console. Its much simpler than the original Firephp core and easier to use(I think so anyway)

It supports most of the FirePHP protocol except for types = table and group.

Usage: [code] $this->load->library('console'); $this->console->log('woot'); // prints 'woot' to the firebug console $this->console->log(array('foo'=>'bar'), 'warn'); // prints array contents as a warning $this->console->log('woot', 'error', true); // prints 'woot' as an error and also writes it to the CI log file [/code]

Anyway, here is the code: [code] <?php class Console {

public $enabled = true;
private $index = 1;
private $CI;

function Console($enable=true) { $this->CI =& get_instance(); $this->enabled = $enable; }

/**
 * Log data to the fireBug Console (via firePHP)
 * @param Mixed $type
 * @param Mixed $message
 * @param Bool $write_to_file [optional]
 */
function log($message, $type='log', $write_to_file=false) {
    $header_name = 'X-Wf-1-1-1-'.$this->index;
    
    if (!is_array($type) && !is_object($type)) {
        if (in_array(strtolower($type), array('log','info','warn','error'))) {
            // create header value
            $header_value = '[{"Type":"'.strtoupper($type).'"},'.json_encode($message).']';
            if ($write_to_file==true) {
                log_message($type, $message);
            }
        }
    }
    else {
        $meta;
        // create meta Object
        foreach ($type as $key=>$value) {
            $key = ucfirst($key);
            $meta->$key = $value;
        }

        $body;
        // create body object
        foreach ($message as $key=>$value) {
            $key = ucfirst($key);
            $body->$key = $value;
        }
        // create header value
        $header_value = '['.json_encode($meta).','.json_encode($body).']';
        
        if ($write_to_file==true) {
            log_message($meta->Type, $body->Trace.': '.json_decode($body->Trace));
        }
    }
    
    if ($this->enabled) {
        if ($this->index==1) {
            // set base firePHP headers
            $this->CI->output->set_header('X-Wf-Protocol-1: http://meta.wildfirehq.org/Protocol/JsonStream/0.2');
            $this->CI->output->set_header('X-Wf-1-Plugin-1: http://meta.firephp.org/Wildfire/Plugin/FirePHP/Library-FirePHPCore/0.3');
            $this->CI->output->set_header('X-Wf-1-Structure-1: http://meta.firephp.org/Wildfire/Structure/FirePHP/FirebugConsole/0.1');
        }
        
        // set output header 
        $this->CI->output->set_header($header_name.': '.strlen($header_value).'|'.$header_value.'|');
        
        // increase log index
        $this->index++;
    }
}
