How to debug your PHP project

It is assumed that the server is installed locally to work (php apache mysql etc ...).

Get Eclipse from here

On Eclipse go to Run -> Debug Configurations
Click new configuration

Folder: Server
*Name: php-debugger (can chose another name, of course! :) )
*PHP server - default PHP Web Server
*File: /newProject/index.php
Open configure...
*Debugger: xdebug
*base url: http://localhost
*local web root: /var/www/html/newProject
*OK
*

Folder: Debugger
*Server Debuger --> XDebug
APPLY
CLOSE

go to /var/www/html and create a new folder "newProject"

Create a PHP Project in eclipse (using, of course, the folder you created)

Create new file index.php with some code to text and set a breakpoint with double click on the left side of the code

Open php.ini
sudo gedit /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
past the code

xdebug.remote_enable = On

Run, Debug as... , PHP web application

Will open a web browser inside eclipse

This simple python script allow you to scan websites looking for email addresses.

In the begin, you have to set a seed url to have a initial point to scan

urlsToProcess = deque(['https://moz.com/top500']) 

In the main loop (who runs until there is no more urls) process url looking for more urls to feed the deque urlsToProcess

url = urlsToProcess.popleft()
    processed_urls.add(url)
     
    urlsFile.write(url + "\n")
    
    parts = urlparse(url)
    base_url = "{0.scheme}://{0.netloc}".format(parts)
    path = url[:url.rfind('/')+1] if '/' in parts.path else url
 
    print("Crawling site: %s" % url)
    try:
        response = requests.get(url)
    

for anchor in soup.find_all("a"):
        # extract link
        link = anchor.attrs["href"] if "href" in anchor.attrs else ''
        if link.startswith('/'):
            link = base_url + link
        elif not link.startswith('http'):
            link = path + link
        # add url to the the list
        if not link in urlsToProcess and not link in processed_urls:
            urlsToProcess.append(link)

And scan and save the emails in a file.

new_emails = set(re.findall(r"[a-z0-9\.\-+_]+@[a-z0-9\.\-+_]+\.[a-z]+", response.text, re.I))
    
    for email in new_emails:
        if email not in emails:
            emailsFile.write(email + "\n")
            emails.add(email)
