|
|
> An alternate transport for Chrome's remote debugging protocol.
|
|
|
|
Process: [Main](../glossary.md#main-process)
|
|
|
|
Chrome Developer Tools has a [special binding][rdp] available at JavaScript
|
|
runtime that allows interacting with pages and instrumenting them.
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
const { BrowserWindow } = require('electron')
|
|
let win = new BrowserWindow()
|
|
|
|
try {
|
|
win.webContents.debugger.attach('1.1')
|
|
} catch (err) {
|
|
console.log('Debugger attach failed : ', err)
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
win.webContents.debugger.on('detach', (event, reason) => {
|
|
console.log('Debugger detached due to : ', reason)
|
|
})
|
|
|
|
win.webContents.debugger.on('message', (event, method, params) => {
|
|
if (method === 'Network.requestWillBeSent') {
|
|
if (params.request.url === 'https://www.github.com') {
|
|
win.webContents.debugger.detach()
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
})
|
|
|
|
win.webContents.debugger.sendCommand('Network.enable')
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
#### `debugger.detach()`
|
|
|
|
Detaches the debugger from the `webContents`.
|
|
|
|
#### `debugger.sendCommand(method[, commandParams, callback])`
|
|
|
|
* `method` String - Method name, should be one of the methods defined by the
|
|
[remote debugging protocol][rdp].
|
|
* `commandParams` Object (optional) - JSON object with request parameters.

|
|
* `error` Object - Error message indicating the failure of the command.
