# Remote Redux DevTools
![Demo](demo.gif)
Use [Redux DevTools](https://github.com/reduxjs/redux-devtools) remotely for React Native, hybrid, desktop and server side Redux apps.
### Installation
```
yarn add @redux-devtools/remote
```
### Usage
There are 2 ways of usage depending if you're using other store enhancers (middlewares) or not.
#### Add DevTools enhancer to your store
If you have a basic [store](http://redux.js.org/docs/api/createStore.html) as described in the official [redux-docs](http://redux.js.org/index.html), simply replace:
```javascript
import { createStore } from 'redux';
const store = createStore(reducer);
```
with
```javascript
import { createStore } from 'redux';
import devToolsEnhancer from '@redux-devtools/remote';
const store = createStore(reducer, devToolsEnhancer());
// or const store = createStore(reducer, preloadedState, devToolsEnhancer());
```
> Note: passing enhancer as last argument requires redux@>=3.1.0
#### When to use DevTools compose helper
If you setup your store with [middlewares and enhancers](http://redux.js.org/docs/api/applyMiddleware.html) like [redux-saga](https://github.com/redux-saga/redux-saga) and similar, it is crucial to use `composeWithDevTools` export. Otherwise, actions dispatched from Redux DevTools will not flow to your middlewares.
In that case change this:
```javascript
import { createStore, applyMiddleware, compose } from 'redux';
const store = createStore(
reducer,
preloadedState,
compose(
applyMiddleware(...middleware)
// other store enhancers if any
)
);
```
to:
```javascript
import { createStore, applyMiddleware } from 'redux';
import { composeWithDevTools } from '@redux-devtools/remote';
const store = createStore(
reducer,
/* preloadedState, */ composeWithDevTools(
applyMiddleware(...middleware)
// other store enhancers if any
)
);
```
or with devTools' options:
```javascript
import { createStore, applyMiddleware } from 'redux';
import { composeWithDevTools } from '@redux-devtools/remote';
const composeEnhancers = composeWithDevTools({ realtime: true, port: 8000 });
const store = createStore(
reducer,
/* preloadedState, */ composeEnhancers(
applyMiddleware(...middleware)
// other store enhancers if any
)
);
```
### Enabling
In order not to allow it in production by default, the enhancer will have effect only when `process.env.NODE_ENV === 'development'`.
For Webpack you should add it as following (`webpack.config.dev.js`):
```js
// ...
plugins: [
new webpack.DefinePlugin({
'process.env.NODE_ENV': JSON.stringify('development')
})
],
// ...
```
In case you don't set `NODE_ENV`, you can set `realtime` parameter to `true` or to other global variable to turn it off in production:
```js
const store = createStore(reducer, devToolsEnhancer({ realtime: true }));
```
### Monitoring
Use one of our monitor apps to inspect and dispatch actions:
- [redux-devtools-extension](https://github.com/reduxjs/redux-devtools/tree/main/extension) - Click "Remote" button (or press [`Cmd+Ctrl+Arrow up`](https://github.com/zalmoxisus/redux-devtools-extension#keyboard-shortcuts)) to open remote monitoring.
- [remotedev-rn-debugger](https://github.com/jhen0409/remotedev-rn-debugger) - Used in React Native debugger as a dock monitor.
- [atom-redux-devtools](https://github.com/zalmoxisus/atom-redux-devtools) - Used in Atom editor.
- [redux-dispatch-cli](https://github.com/jhen0409/redux-dispatch-cli) - A CLI tool for Redux remote dispatch.
- [vscode-redux-devtools](https://github.com/jkzing/vscode-redux-devtools) - Used in Visual Studio Code.
Use [@redux-devtools/app](https://github.com/reduxjs/redux-devtools/tree/main/packages/redux-devtools-app) to create your own monitor app.
### Communicate via local server
Use [@redux-devtools/cli](https://github.com/reduxjs/redux-devtools/tree/main/packages/redux-devtools-cli).
You can import it in your `server.js` script and start remotedev server together with your development server:
```js
var reduxDevTools = require('@redux-devtools/cli');
reduxDevTools({ hostname: 'localhost', port: 8000 });
```
See [@redux-devtools/cli](https://github.com/reduxjs/redux-devtools/tree/main/packages/redux-devtools-cli) for more details.
For React Native you can use [remotedev-rn-debugger](https://github.com/jhen0409/remotedev-rn-debugger), which already include `@redux-devtools/cli`.
### Parameters
| Name | Description |
| ----------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `name` | _String_ representing the instance name to be shown on the remote monitor. |
| `realtime` | _Boolean_ specifies whether to allow remote monitoring. By default is `process.env.NODE_ENV === 'development'`. |
| `hostname` | _String_ used to specify host for [@redux-devtools/cli](https://github.com/reduxjs/redux-devtools/tree/main/packages/redux-devtools-cli). If `port` is specified, default value is `localhost`. |
| `port` | _Number_ used to specify host's port for [@redux-devtools/cli](https://github.com/reduxjs/redux-devtools/tree/main/packages/redux-devtools-cli). |
| `secure` | _Boolean_ specifies whether to use `https` protocol for [@redux-devtools/cli](https://github.com/reduxjs/redux-devtools/tree/main/packages/redux-devtools-cli). |
| `maxAge` | _Number_ of maximum allowed actions to be stored on the history tree, the oldest actions are removed once maxAge is reached. Default is `30`. |
| `actionsDenylist` | _array_ of actions to be hidden in DevTools. Overwrites corresponding global setting in the options page. See the example bellow. |
| `actionsAllowlist` | _array_ of actions to be shown. All other actions will be hidden in DevTools. |
| `actionSanitizer` | _Function_ which takes action object and id number as arguments, and should return action object back. See the example bellow. |
| `stateSanitizer` | _Function_ which takes state object and index as arguments, and should return state object back. See the example bellow. |
| `startOn` | _String_ or _Array of strings_ indicating an action or a list of actions, which should start remote monitoring (when `realtime` is `false`). |
| `stopOn` | _String_ or _Array of strings_ indicating an action or a list of actions, which should stop remote monitoring. |
| `sendOn` | _String_ or _Array of strings_ indicating an action or a list of actions, which should trigger sending the history to the monitor (without starting it). _Note_: when using it, add a `fetch` polyfill if needed. |
| `sendOnError` | _Numeric_ code: `0` - disabled (default), `1` - send all uncaught exception messages, `2` - send only reducers error messages. |
| `sendTo` | _String_ url of the monitor to send the history when `sendOn` is triggered. By default is `${secure ? 'https' : 'http'}://${hostname}:${port}`. |
| `actionCreators` | _Array_ or _Object_ of action creators to dispatch remotely. See [the example](https://github.com/zalmoxisus/remote-redux-devtools/commit/b54652930dfd4e057991df8471c343957fd7bff7). |
| `shouldHotReload` | _Boolean_ - if set to `false`, will not recompute the states on hot reloading (or on replacing the reducers). Default to `true`. |
| `shouldRecordChanges` | _Boolean_ - if specified as `false`, it will not record the changes till clicked on "Start recording" button on the monitor app. Default is `true`. |
| `shouldStartLocked` | _Boolean_ - if specified as `true`, it will not allow any non-monitor actions to be dispatched till `lockChanges(false)` is dispatched. Default is `false`. |
| `id` | _String_ to identify the instance when sending the history triggered by `sendOn`. You can use, for example, user id here, to know who sent the data. |
| `suppressConnectErrors` | _Boolean_ - if set to `false`, all socket errors thrown while trying to connect will be printed to the console, regardless of if they've been thrown before. This is primarily for suppressing `SocketProtocolError` errors, which get repeatedly thrown when trying to make a connection. Default is `true`. |
All parameters are optional. You have to provide the `port` property to use the `hostname` or `secure` properties.
Example:
```js
export default function configureStore(preloadedState) {
const store = createStore(
reducer,
preloadedState,
devToolsEnhancer({
name: 'Android app',
realtime: true,
hostname: 'localhost',
port: 8000,
maxAge: 30,
actionsDenylist: ['EFFECT_RESOLVED'],
actionSanitizer: (action) =>
action.type === 'FILE_DOWNLOAD_SUCCESS' && action.data
? { ...action, data: '<<LONG_BLOB>>' }
: action,
stateSanitizer: (state) =>
state.data ? { ...state, data: '<<LONG_BLOB>>' } : state,
})
);
return store;
}
