Summary
Note
Depends on react/react-native#59886: React Native's DevTools backend must move to
react-devtools-core8.0 in the same release.Vendors
react-devtools-fuseboxbuilt from Reactmainat d71b537241, plus react/react#38167, which addsinitializeSuspenseand is not yet merged.Changes
[name, file, line, column, …]tuples React DevTools 7.0 introduced, so View source keeps working.importFile.worker.worker.js, which only the removed Timeline tab used.Test Plan
Built with
npm run buildand served through Metro'sREACT_NATIVE_DEBUGGER_FRONTEND_PATHoverride to RNTester on an iOS simulator, withreact-devtools-core8.0.0 as the backend.✅ The Components panel renders the tree against the 8.0 backend.
⚠️ Against the 6.1.5 backend, the Components panel fails with the Store error above.
✅ View source reads the new location tuples and opens the file at the element's JSX, through source maps. This shot uses a backend with react/react#38168: on Hermes, the 8.0.0 backend reports an empty file name for every frame, so View source fails there with or without this change.
Rechecked after rebasing onto #291, against React Native with react/react-native#59886 landed (stock
react-devtools-core8.0.0).✅ Selecting
<RNTesterApp>in the Components panel shows its props, hooks and renderer.✅ The Profiler records 3 commits while the app navigates between examples, with flamegraph timings and commit details.
✅ View source on
<RNTesterApp>opensRNTesterAppShared.jsat the component definition.
