Xdebug issue with worker mode

[antanasito]

I am using PHPStorm as my IDE and I am trying to get Xdebug working.
If I remove the following from Caddyfile - everything works just fine:

worker {
	file ./public/index.php
	env APP_RUNTIME Runtime\FrankenPhpSymfony\Runtime
	{$FRANKENPHP_WORKER_CONFIG}
}

Is there a way to make xdebug work using FRANKENPHP_WORKER_CONFIG: watch or at least disable worker mode via environment variable?

I want to use FRANKENPHP_WORKER_CONFIG: watch in development to catch various bugs related to workers and avoid them to reaching prod. I am thinking something like make xdebug_on that would restart app container with needed env variables to disable worker mode and enabling xdebug temporary.

Hey, @antanasito!

You can do a partial revert of #770 and #765 (see #782 (comment)) to enable worker mode switching via the FRANKENPHP_CONFIG env.

Then, to enable worker mode (disable XDebug), you'll need to set the FRANKENPHP_CONFIG env to import worker.Caddyfile. To disable worker mode (enable XDebug), simply leave this env empty.

I hope this helps.

Thank you for your quick response. Are there any plans to make xdebug working with worker mode?

@antanasito Yes, but this appears to be a bug in Xdebug itself, that needs to be debugged!
