evm-breakpoints
Human-friendly interface for Ethereum VM breakpoints - debugging helper.
Example of library usage in tests:
const evm = reuqire('evm-breakpoints');
const logger = evm.breakpoint().add({
contractFile: "./build/contracts/Simple.json", // we should take full compilation info from the given file
lines: [21] // multiple lines can be specified as breakpoints
});
const debug = evm.iterator(web3, txHash, logger);
while (!debug.stopped()) {
console.log(debug.get());
debug.next();
}
please see examples/truffle
for a full example of debugging local variables.
Example of library usage in web:
In web environment, you need to compile the contract, and then provide iterator source map from compiled version
var evm = window.evmBreakpoints;
evm
.contract({ source: contractSoure, compiler: "latest" })
.on('ready', function(compiled) {
var json = compiled.contracts[contractName];
var logger = evm.breakpoint().add({ source, sourceMap: json.srcmapRuntime, lines: [21] });
var debug = evm.iterator(web3, txHash, logger);
while (!debug.stopped()) {
console.log(debug.get());
debug.next();
}
})
.on('error', console.error);
please see examples/web/index.html
for a full example of debugging local variables.
Disclaimer
Work of the library is based on experimental web3.debug.traceTransaction
, so please keep following the updates
HTTP RPC "debug" api must be enabled https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/wiki/Management-APIs#debug_tracetransaction
If you are receiving
Error: missing trie node
