FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Informations about the package tinker-web
tinker-web
A standalone local PHP scratchpad for any Laravel/PHP project — in your browser.
Run tinker-web, point it at any local Laravel app, and evaluate PHP against that app's booted
container from a browser editor — no per-project package to install. Think Tinkerwell, but a small
open-source local web app.
How it works
- A tiny local HTTP server (127.0.0.1 only, single-user) serves a browser UI with a CodeMirror 6 editor (PHP syntax highlighting).
- Each run spawns a fresh PHP runner rooted in the target project — it
requires the target'svendor/autoload.php, boots that app, evaluates your snippet, and renders the result with the target's ownsymfony/var-dumper+ Laravel Tinker casters (so Eloquent models/collections read nicely). A separate process per eval = clean isolation, and no dependency clash with the tool. - The target needs nothing installed (it uses its own PsySH/Tinker if present, with a plain-eval fallback otherwise).
Requirements
- PHP 8.2+ (to run the tool).
- A local Laravel app to target (any version).
laravel/tinkerin the target gives the nicest rendering but isn't required.
Install
Update to the latest release later:
Or clone and run directly:
Usage
Add more projects from the toolbar; recent projects are remembered in ~/.config/tinker-web.
Write PHP in the editor and press ⌘/Ctrl + ↵ to run — or flip on Auto-run to re-evaluate
live as you finish each statement. Snippets run as a notebook: each top-level statement becomes
its own result cell (state persists within a run), and dump()/dd() output and return values
render as VarDumper's collapsible, interactive HTML — click to expand Eloquent models and
arrays. dd()/exit()/die() stop the run cleanly with a marker instead of erroring. The editor
autocompletes the target's class names (inserting the FQCN), your buffer's variables, and static
Class:: methods/constants — sourced from the Composer classmap and reflection, with no app boot.
Security
tinker-web executes arbitrary PHP against the target app, so it is deliberately local-only:
- Binds to
127.0.0.1exclusively (never0.0.0.0). - Requires a random per-session token in the URL (constant-time compared).
- Enforces a Host-header allowlist (
127.0.0.1/localhost) to blunt DNS-rebinding.
Only run it on your own machine against apps you trust. Rendering a model shows its attributes (including hidden ones like tokens) — expected for a local scratchpad.
Roadmap
- Instance-member completion after
$var->(type inference) and auto-import — building on the class-name, variable, and staticClass::completion that ships now. - Warm runner daemon per target, plus a stateful REPL session (variables persist across evals).
- Refuse/warn when the target's
APP_ENVisproduction.
