Related: https://github.com/facebook/react/pull/31342 This fixes RDT behaviour when some DOM element was pre-selected in built-in browser's Elements panel, and then Components panel of React DevTools was opened for the first time. With this change, React DevTools will correctly display the initial state of the Components Tree with the corresponding React Element (if possible) pre-selected. Previously, we would only subscribe listener when `TreeContext` is mounted, but this only happens when user opens one of React DevTools panels for the first time. With this change, we keep state inside `Store`, which is created when Browser DevTools are opened. Later, `TreeContext` will use it for initial state value. Planned next changes: 1. Merge `inspectedElementID` and `selectedElementID`, I have no idea why we need both. 2. Fix issue with `AutoSizer` rendering a blank container.
This is the source code for the React DevTools browser extension.
Installation
The easiest way to install this extension is as a browser add-on:
Local development
You can also build and install this extension from source.
Prerequisite steps
DevTools depends on local versions of several NPM packages1 also in this workspace. You'll need to either build or download those packages first.
1 Note that at this time, an experimental build is required because DevTools depends on the createRoot API.
To install all necessary dependencies, run the following command from the root of the repository:
yarn install
Build from source
To build dependencies from source, run the following command from the root of the repository:
yarn build-for-devtools
Download from CI
To use the latest build from CI, run the following commands starting from the root of the repository:
cd scripts/release
yarn install
./download-experimental-build.js
Build steps
Once the above packages have been built or downloaded, you can build the extension by running:
cd packages/react-devtools-extensions/
yarn build:chrome # => packages/react-devtools-extensions/chrome/build
yarn run test:chrome # Test Chrome extension
yarn build:firefox # => packages/react-devtools-extensions/firefox/build
yarn run test:firefox # Test Firefox extension
yarn build:edge # => packages/react-devtools-extensions/edge/build
