cadorn / fireconsole Goto Github PK

It's just an annoyance, but dictionary is not a type in PHP, and distinct types shouldn't be grouped together under dictionary.

FF 3.6.4 | FB 1.5.4 | FC 0.0.0master1002152141

although my server is returning the firephp headers, i get no messages in the console. In the Net panel, i can see the headers:
X-Wf-Protocol-1 http://meta.wildfirehq.org/Protocol/JsonStream/0.2
X-Wf-1-Plugin-1 http://meta.firephp.org/Wildfire/Plugin/FirePHP/Library-FirePHPCore/0.3

Firebug v. 1.4.5
I've disabled normal FirePHP using the extension manager when I installed FireConsole (0.0.0master1002082041)

using Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.2) Gecko/20100124 Ubuntu/9.04 (jaunty) Firefox/3.6
Firebug 1.5.0

i am sending an associative array via firephp, but i cannot view the contents of the array. in the console, where the array would be displayed i get this:
dictionary(... 1 ...)

when i mouse over it, i get info about where in my code this dictionary was sent from. however, clicking accomplishes nothing -- the variable viewer does not come up.

I recall having a little trouble that time too, but eventually I got FireConsole working. I know I had both FirePHP and FireConsole installed at some point, both plugins started displaying in the console and I removed FirePHP and FIreConsole continued to work alone.

So, I had this all working, before I reinstalled my user account on my iMac.

I installed FireBug stable and FireConsole Alpha today on FF 3.6.3 Nothing was showing up in the console, the FireConsole Button didn't have an enable button. I tried FB alpha version, no luck. I installed the FirePHP plugin and IT works, but not FireConsole.

FireConsole's button still only shows a few options, which when I click each, do nothing.

NarwhalRunner is mostly blank too, with Clear and Copy buttons only.

The Variable Viewer does not refresh when the selection changes.

This has been observed on Ubuntu.

I'm on Ubuntu Karmic with firebug 1.5.0 and still see that red bar on top saying: "You need Firebug 1.5 which you can get from here."

When viewing a string that contains newlines and return characters "\r\n", the log shows the characters directly (which is fine) but the variable viewer doesn't remove them both.

Example:
Log entry:
"String with a\r\nNewline"

Variable viewer:
"String with a\r

Newline"

It makes it difficult to read and/or copy a variable.

I started to report on FireConsole + Firebug but I didn't get toob far...I get a ton of error messages like

tabCache.loadFromCache EXCEPTION on url 'resource:\narwhal\engines\default\lib\json.js' Component returned failure code: 0x80040111(NS_ERROR_NOT_AVAILABLE) [nsIIOService.newChannel]

because I guess the backslashes are not legal in urls.

Firefox realease update channel is currently at 7.0.1 and says that FireConsole is not compatible.

I tries installing pinf so I could fix this plugin, but pinf does not install based on the instructions for the Mac OS X command line. Sorry.

The code to implement the draggable Variable Viewer is messy:

http://github.com/cadorn/fireconsole/blob/master/packages/firefox-extension/packages/xul-ui/lib/IFramePanel.js

It works mostly on OSX and Windows but has issues on Ubuntu and on secondary monitors. The coordinates returned by the underlying implementation don't seem to follow a consistent model and change based on the state of the window and/or mouse/click event state.

Need to base64 encode strings on server before jsonifying and sending to client.

Install error when the extension is installed on windows (with files not packaged into jar files):

2009-11-05 11:20:07 - extractExtensionsFiles: failed to create target directory for extraction  file = C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\j3bnbx7e.default\extensions\[email protected]\using\...\firephp-extension\packages\firebug, exception = [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80520011 (NS_ERROR_FILE_NAME_TOO_LONG) [nsIFile.create]"  nsresult: "0x80520011 (NS_ERROR_FILE_NAME_TOO_LONG)"  location: "JS frame :: file:///C:/Program%20Files/Mozilla%20Firefox/components/nsExtensionManager.js :: extractExtensionFiles :: line 1635"  data: no]

The NS_ERROR_FILE_NAME_TOO_LONG error is also triggered for some files when extension is installed manually (as during development) and executed.

If files are packaged into jar files narwhal-xulrunner engine cannot access them yet.
