=head1 NAME
|
|
|
|
C4::Debug - Standardized, centralized, exported debug switches.
|
|
|
|
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
use C4::Debug;
|
|
|
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The purpose of this module is to centralize some of the "switches" that turn debugging
|
|
off and on in Koha. Most often, this functionality will be provided via C4::Context.
|
|
C4::Debug is separate to preserve the relatively stable state of Context, and
|
|
because other code will use C4::Debug without invoking Context.
|
|
|
|
Although centralization is our intention,
|
|
for logical and security reasons, several approaches to debugging need to be
|
|
kept separate. Information useful to developers in one area will not necessarily
|
|
be useful or even available to developers in another area.
|
|
|
|
For example, the designer of template-influenced javascript my want to be able to
|
|
trigger javascript's alert function to display certain variable values, to verify
|
|
the template selection is being performed correctly. For this purpose the presence
|
|
of a javascript "debug" variable might be a good switch.
|
|
|
|
Meanwhile, where security coders (say, for LDAP Auth) will appreciate low level feedback about
|
|
Authentication transactions, an environmental system variable might be a good switch.
|
|
However, clearly we would not want to expose that same information (e.g., entire LDAP records)
|
|
to the web interface based on a javascript variable (even if it were possible)!
|
|
|
|
All that is a long way of saying THERE ARE SECURITY IMPLICATIONS to turning on
|
|
debugging in various parts of the system, so don't treat them all the same or confuse them.
|
|
|
|
=head1 VARIABLES / AREAS
|
|
|
|
=head2 $debug - System, general
|
|
The general purpose debug switch.
|
|
|
|
=head3 How to Set $debug:
|
|
|
|
=over
|
|
|
|
=item environmental variable DEBUG or KOHA_DEBUG. In bash, you might do:
|
|
|
|
export KOHA_DEBUG=1;
|
|
perl t/Auth.t;
|
|
|
|
=item Keep in mind that your webserver will not be running in the same environment as your shell.
|
|
However, for development purposes, the same effect can be had by using Apache's SET_ENV
|
|
command with ERROR_LOG enabled for your VirtualHost. Not intended for production systems.
|
|
|
|
=item You can force the value from perl directly, like:
|
|
|
|
use C4::Debug;
|
|
use C4::Dates;
|
|
BEGIN { $C4::Debug::debug = 1; }
|
|
# now any other dependencies that also use C4::Debug will have debugging ON.
|
|
|
|
=back
|
|
|
|
=head2 $cgi_debug (CGI params) The web-based debug switch.
|
|
|
|
=head3 How to Set $cgi_debug:
|
|
|
|
=over
|
|
|
|
=item From a web browser, for example by supplying a non-zero debug parameter (1 to 9):
|
|
|
|
http://www.mylibrary.org/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?q=history&debug=1
|
|
|
|
=item Or in HTML, add a similar input parameter:
|
|
|
|
<input type="hidden" name="debug" value="1" />
|
|
|
|
=item Or from shell (or Apache), set KOHA_CGI_DEBUG.
|
|
|
|
=back
|
|
|
|
The former methods mean $cgi_debug is exposed. Do NOT use it to trigger any actions that you would
|
|
not allow a (potentially anonymous) end user to perform. Dumping sensitive data, directory listings, or
|
|
emailing yourself a test message would all be bad actions to tie to $cgi_debug.

=head2 System Preferences
|

|
|
=head2 Database Debug
|
|
|
|
Debugging at the database level might be useful. Koha does not currently integrate any such
|
|
capability.
|
|
|
|
=head1 CONVENTIONS
|
|
|
|
Debug values range from 0 to 9. At zero (the default), debugging is off.
