@1ib/probe

A lightweight utility for tracking property access chains, which can become whatever you want, useful for debugging and path tracing.

Usage

1. Inject the probe code into your debug console

Open this link and copy the latest code into your debug console:

// Example context you need to debug
function blackBox(p) {
  return p.a.b.c(1, 2).d[3][4];
}

// 1. Copy the code from https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@1ib/probe@latest/dist/index.umd.js and paste it here.
// ...

// 2. Inject the probe into the context you want to debug
blackBox(probe); // Logs: probe.a.b.c.(1, 2).d.3.4

2. For project usage via npm

# Using npm
npm install @1ib/probe

import Probe from '@1ib/probe';

const probe = new Probe({ callback: console.log });
probe.a.b.c(1, 2).d;
// Logs: ['a']
// Logs: ['a', 'b']
// Logs: ['a', 'b', 'c']
// Logs: ['a', 'b', 'c', [1, 2]]
// Logs: ['a', 'b', 'c', [1, 2], 'd']
