React Native Dev Console

React Native Dev Console is small package designed to help debug apps in non debug mode

Why

Debuging React native apps in debug mode is slow and error prone. With this package user is able to debug app without activating debug mode and being tied to computer.

Installation

Since the package is a JS-based solution, to install the latest version of react-native-dev-console you only need to run:

yarn add react-native-dev-console

or

npm install --save react-native-dev-console

Quick Start

importConsoleProviderfrom'react-native-dev-console'exportdefaultclassAppextendsComponent{render(){return(<View><ConsoleProvider/></View>)}}

Display line numbers

This package comes with babel plugin included. Babel plugin role is to add meta information needed for debuging. For example, file line number.

To enable plugin add entry to .babelrc file:

{
"plugins": ["./node_modules/react-native-dev-console/src/babel-plugin.js"]
}

Catching Logs before React render phase

Basic setup will not display logs that are called before React render phase. In order to cover that scenario in App entry file include:

import { LogService } from 'react-native-dev-console'
LogService.start()
