Runtime.UniqueDebuggerId

Unique identifier of the debugger.

Experimental

Debugger.evaluateOnCallFrame #

Evaluates expression on a given call frame.

In V8, @cdp Debugger.evaluateOnCallFrame populates the result field with the exception value.

facebook/hermes/…/DebuggerDomainAgent.cpp:538

Parameters

callFrameId

Call frame identifier to evaluate on.

expression

string

Expression to evaluate.

objectGroup
Optional

string

String object group name to put result into (allows rapid releasing resulting object handles using releaseObjectGroup).

includeCommandLineAPI
Optional

boolean

Specifies whether command line API should be available to the evaluated expression, defaults to false.

silent
Optional

boolean

In silent mode exceptions thrown during evaluation are not reported and do not pause execution. Overrides setPauseOnException state.

returnByValue
Optional

boolean

Whether the result is expected to be a JSON object that should be sent by value.

generatePreview
Optional

boolean

Whether preview should be generated for the result.

Experimental

throwOnSideEffect
Optional

boolean

Whether to throw an exception if side effect cannot be ruled out during evaluation.

timeout
Optional

Runtime.TimeDelta

Terminate execution after timing out (number of milliseconds).

Experimental

Return object

result

Object wrapper for the evaluation result.

exceptionDetails
Optional

Runtime.ExceptionDetails

Exception details.

Debugger.getPossibleBreakpoints #

Returns possible locations for breakpoint. scriptId in start and end range locations should be the same.

Parameters

start

Start of range to search possible breakpoint locations in.

end
Optional

End of range to search possible breakpoint locations in (excluding). When not specified, end of scripts is used as end of range.

restrictToFunction
Optional

boolean

Only consider locations which are in the same (non-nested) function as start.

Return object

locations

array[ BreakLocation ]

List of the possible breakpoint locations.

Debugger.getScriptSource #

Returns source for the script with given id.

Parameters

scriptId

Id of the script to get source for.

Return object

scriptSource

string

Script source (empty in case of Wasm bytecode).

bytecode
Optional

string

Wasm bytecode. (Encoded as a base64 string when passed over JSON)

Debugger.pause #

Stops on the next JavaScript statement.

Debugger.removeBreakpoint #

Removes JavaScript breakpoint.

Parameters

breakpointId

Debugger.restartFrame #

Restarts particular call frame from the beginning. The old, deprecated behavior of restartFrame is to stay paused and allow further CDP commands after a restart was scheduled. This can cause problems with restarting, so we now continue execution immediatly after it has been scheduled until we reach the beginning of the restarted frame.

To stay back-wards compatible, restartFrame now expects a mode parameter to be present. If the mode parameter is missing, restartFrame errors out.

The various return values are deprecated and callFrames is always empty. Use the call frames from the Debugger#paused events instead, that fires once V8 pauses at the beginning of the restarted function.

Parameters

callFrameId

Call frame identifier to evaluate on.

mode
Optional

string

The mode parameter must be present and set to 'StepInto', otherwise restartFrame will error out.

Allowed values: StepInto

Experimental

Return object

callFrames

array[ CallFrame ]

New stack trace.

Deprecated

asyncStackTrace
Optional

Async stack trace, if any.

Deprecated

asyncStackTraceId
Optional

Async stack trace, if any.

Deprecated

Debugger.resume #

Resumes JavaScript execution.

Parameters

terminateOnResume
Optional

boolean

Set to true to terminate execution upon resuming execution. In contrast to Runtime.terminateExecution, this will allows to execute further JavaScript (i.e. via evaluation) until execution of the paused code is actually resumed, at which point termination is triggered. If execution is currently not paused, this parameter has no effect.

Debugger.searchInContent #

Searches for given string in script content.

Parameters

scriptId

Id of the script to search in.

query

string

String to search for.

caseSensitive
Optional

boolean

Debugger.setScriptSource #

In this case the live edit will be successful and a Debugger.restartFrame for the top-most function is automatically triggered.

Parameters

scriptId

Events

Debugger.paused #

Fired when the virtual machine stopped on breakpoint or exception or any other stop criteria.

Although the documentation lists the "data" field as optional for the @cdp Debugger.paused event: https://chromedevtools.github.io/devtools-protocol/tot/Debugger/#event-paused it is accessed unconditionally by the front-end when the pause reason is "exception". "data" is passed in as "auxData" via: https://github.com/facebookexperimental/rn-chrome-devtools-frontend/blob/9a23d4c7c4c2d1a3d9e913af38d6965f474c4284/front_end/core/sdk/DebuggerModel.ts#L994 and "auxData" stored in a DebuggerPausedDetails instance: https://github.com/facebookexperimental/rn-chrome-devtools-frontend/blob/9a23d4c7c4c2d1a3d9e913af38d6965f474c4284/front_end/core/sdk/DebuggerModel.ts#L642 which then has its fields accessed in: https://github.com/facebookexperimental/rn-chrome-devtools-frontend/blob/main/front_end/panels/sources/DebuggerPausedMessage.ts#L225 If the "data" ("auxData") object is absent, accessing its fields will throw, breaking the display of pause information. Thus, we always populate "data" with an object. The "data" field has no schema in the protocol metadata that we use to generate message structures, so we need to manually construct a JSON object here. The structure expected by the front-end (specifically, the "description" field) can be inferred from the field access at the URL above. The front-end does gracefully handle missing fields on the "data" object, so we can consider the "description" field optional.
