ConnectRPC Devtools Interceptor

This package contains a ConnectRPC interceptor that will forward information to the gRPC-Web DevTools extension, allowing you to easily debug the contents of ConnectRPC requests. Which the gRPC-Web DevTools extension ships with its own interceptor for Connect V1, that interceptor crashes when used with Connect V2. This package only supports Connect V2.

Install:

npm install connect-devtools

Add it to your Connect client:

import { createPromiseClient, type Interceptor } from "@connectrpc/connect";
import { createConnectTransport } from "@connectrpc/connect-web";
import { devtoolsInterceptor } from 'connect-devtools';

const interceptors: Interceptor[] = [
  // whatever other interceptors you want
];

// Only install the devtools interceptor if the gRPC-Web Devtools extension is available
if ("window" in globalThis && "__CONNECT_WEB_DEVTOOLS__" in globalThis.window) {
  interceptors.push(devtoolsInterceptor);
}

const transport = createConnectTransport({
  baseUrl: endpoint,
  interceptors,
});

const client = createPromiseClient(definition, transport);
