atom-ide-debugger-react-native

React Native Debugger for Atom IDE is ported from vscode-react-native at version 0.5.7 (fork source). There are two ways to invoke the React Native debugger. Either attach to a running packager, or it can launch the debug target in a new packager for debugging. Note that the debugger can only attach if the default Chrome debugger is not already running.

Both cases require a workspace path which should be set to the directory containing the package.json file of the debug target. Launching the debugger also requires specifying the platform to debug, either ios or android as well as the target, either simulator or device. Note that debugging on an iOS device requires some manual setup; see these instructions. In most cases the default port setting of 8081 will be correct.

NOTE: Changing the port setting in the debugger may require external setup, see the issue on GitHub

NOTE: A DeprecationWarning: 'root' is deprecated error may appear when the program first runs, which can be safely dismissed.

Usage

Run apm install atom-ide-debugger-react-native to install the Atom package.
