Summary0002279: [Feature request] WebSocket as alternative connection method
Description

Hi,

there is a WordPress project called wp-now (https://github.com/WordPress/playground-tools) running PHP / SQLite / WordPress in the browser.

Thanks to WebAssembly it works like a charm !

But one of the key points missing in this xdebug support since opening a TCP connection out of the browser is right now impossible.

Why not adding WebSocket support to xdebug ? WebSockets as xdebug communication medium opens up a whole world of new options.

What do you think ?

Hi,

Why not adding WebSocket support to xdebug ?

This is a really big task.

Not only would I need to do this on the Xdebug side, PHP IDEs such as PhpStorm and the VS Code Plugin would also need to support this.

I can't currently see a situation in which I would want to add this — sorry.

cheers,
Derick
