Magento2+Vagrant+xdebug remote debug

Xdebug

Xdebug's (remote) debugger allows you to examine data structure, The Xdebug extension provides debugging
and profiling capabilities for PHP scripts.
Xdebug supports PHP 5.4, 5.5, 5.6, 7.0, 7.1, 7.2, and 7.3.
You can debug your PHP coding using built functions like print_r() or var_dump() or using log file however this is not enough and it will slow you down during developing.
by using Magento2+xdebug it will speed you up during developing and it will make your life easier

Installing Xdebug

Preconditions

1. you have Magento2+Vagrant environment
   
   ※ If you don't have Magento2+Vagrant environment you can follow this tutorial magento2：開発環境構築 Vagrant
2. PHP version is 7.1~
3. you already install PHPSTORM

install Xdebug (inside Vagrant)

inside-vagrant

sudo pecl install xdebug

On my server, I got the following output.

inside-vagrant-output

Build process completed successfully
Installing '/usr/lib/php/20151012/xdebug.so'
install ok: channel://pecl.php.net/xdebug-2.6.1
configuration option "php_ini" is not set to php.ini location
You should add "zend_extension=/usr/lib/php/20151012/xdebug.so" to php.ini

Next, we need to enable the xdebug extension by modifying the php.ini configuration file
/etc/php/7.1/fpm/php.ini or /etc/php/7.1/fpm/conf.d/20-xdebug.ini

inside-vagrant

sudo vim /etc/php/7.1/fpm/php.ini

/etc/php/7.1/fpm/php.ini

zend_extension=/usr/lib/php/20151012/xdebug.so
xdebug.remote_host=192.168.33.10
xdebug.remote_enable=1
xdebug.remote_port=9900
xdebug.idekey="PHPSTORM"
xdebug.remote_log="/tmp/xdebug.log"

xdebug.remote_host You can set it to a specific domain or a IP address. im my case I set 192.168.33.10 because it is my vagrant private network IP
xdebug.remote_port You can set it to a specific port by default it will be 9000 In case I set to 9000 since my 9000 port is listen to something else.
xdebug.idekey since I use PHPSTORM ID I setted to PHPSTORM
xdebug.remote_log it is used as filename to a file to which all remote debugger communications are logged.

after setting you to need to restart your web server.
in case you Apache

inside-vagrant

sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

in case you Nginx

inside-vagrant

sudo /etc/init.d/nginx restart

To verify if xdebug successfully enable. You can add phpinfo() into [magento-folder]/pub/index.php
in my case, it was /var/www/html/pub/index.php
you should get output like this.
