chrome-console-debug-menu v2.0.1

A machanism to define and document debug menu for chrome console panel.

Usage

Install via npm:

npm install chrome-console-debug-menu

Define the menu object like the below:

const Menu = require('chrome-console-debug-menu')

window.m = Menu.create('m', {
  ls: {
    description: 'localStorage controls',
    methods: {
      clear: {
        description: 'Clear localStorage',
        func () {
          console.log('Clearing localStorage')
          localStorage.clear()
        }
      },
      typical: {
        description: 'Sets localStorage in a typical state',
        func () {
          console.log('Setting localStorage in a typical state')
          localStorage.clear()
          localStorage.setItem('foo', 'bar')
        }
      }
    }
  }
})

Then turn on "Enable custom formatters" option in "Console" section of settings of Chrome DevTools. See this for defails.

Then bundle and load the above script in browser and then open devtools console and you'll get object tree m like the below:

• You can see submenus under m by hitting m.
• You can see methods under m.ls by hitting m.ls
• You can invoke localStorage's clear task by hitting m.ls.clear
• You can invoke localStorage's typical task by hitting m.ls.typical

Likewise, you can define arbitrary menus under this object tree.
