AppSuite:Debugging the UI

Debugging the UI

Synopsis: A collection of hints to debug during UI development. See also AppSuite:UI FAQ.

What capabilities are available?

_(ox.serverConfig.capabilities).pluck("id").sort();

Which files failed to load?

requirejs.s.contexts._.registry

What portal widgets are available?

require(['io.ox/portal/widgets'], function (widgets) {
  console.log(widgets.getAvailablePlugins().sort());
});

Check settings

 
// check core settings
require('settings!io.ox/core').get();
// check mail settings
require('settings!io.ox/mail').get();

Clear all persistent caches

Please mind that this does not clear the regular browser cache! It clears localStorage, IndexedDB, and WebSQL.

 
ox.cache.clear();

Debug relogin

 
ox.autoLogoutRestartDebug();

Enable/disable capability via URL hash

Just add the parameter "cap" to URL hash. A leading minus disables a capability. Multiple capabilities separated by comma. Example:

 
...&cap=emoji,-calendar

Changes do not apply while developing

You did changes in your code and they don't simply don't apply? There are several possibilites, you should check in order to find a solution.

• Reload AppSuite with cleared Browser Cache. Using Firefox on Linux-Distributions you can simply press Ctrl+F5. Please check the documentation of your Browser for Shortcuts and how to clear the cache.
• Disable Source Caching. Therefor add the parameter "debug-js=true" to URL hash. Example:

...&debug-js=true

Debug a specific folder

If you want to get details of a specific folder, just inspect it via dev tools and look for data-obj-id="...". Copy the id and run the following in console:

 
void require('io.ox/core/api/folder').get({ folder: 'default0/INBOX' }).always(_.inspect);
