How to connect dubug on advanced template?

Question

Yii

I'm trying to connect the debug panel on the advanced template, browsing the Internet did not give anything except this one

if (YII_ENV_DEV) {
        // configuration adjustments for 'dev' environment
        $config['bootstrap'][] = 'debug';
        $config['modules']['debug']['class'] = 'yii\debug\Module';
        $config['modules']['debug']['allowedIPs'] = ['*'];
    
        $config['bootstrap'][] = 'gii';
        $config['modules']['gii']['class'] = 'yii\gii\Module';
        $config['modules']['gii']['allowedIPs'] = ['*'];
    }

for basic and this one

if (!YII_ENV_TEST) {
        // configuration adjustments for 'dev' environment
        $config['bootstrap'][] = 'debug';
        $config['modules']['debug'] = [
            'class' => 'yii\debug\Module',
        ];
        $config['modules']['debug']['allowedIPs'] = ['*'];
    
        $config['bootstrap'][] = 'gii';
        $config['modules']['gii'] = [
            'class' => 'yii\gii\Module',
        ];
        $config['modules']['gii']['allowedIPs'] = ['*'];
    
    }

but I didn’t understand where to connect if just a white screen appears in config/main/php. Can you tell me how to connect debug and gii if the site is hosted on the server.

Answer 1

When deploying advanced applications, you performed php init, where you chose the environment - dev or prod.
Debug and gii only work in the dev environment.
Open frontend/config/main.php and go to the very bottom of the file:

$config['bootstrap'][] = 'debug';
    $config['modules']['debug'] = [
        'class' => 'yii\debug\Module',
    ];
    $config['bootstrap'][] = 'gii';
    $config['modules']['gii'] = [
        'class' => 'yii\gii\Module',
    ];

And in index.php you can specify the dev environment if prod is specified.
As long as you're learning, you can do it. But in real projects this is not necessary .
