Add css rules for navigation buttons when focused in screencast. Accessibility issue: when using keyboard to navigate to navigation buttons (back, forward, and reload) in screencast, they are not focused. We noticed that when the focus is supposed to be on the said buttons, the button has focus but there is no visual indication. We add a css rule so that the focus is shown the same way as being hovered over. Image before: (from navigation url, use shift+tab, to reload or back buttons. Button does not show focus.) https://imgur.com/BXjJHmp Images after: (same as above, but the button has an outline color indicating focus) https://imgur.com/dixx9Vp Change-Id: Iac23a5a05065207f706c03f2c19ebd182e296085 CrBug: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1081486 Change-Id: I4f77a42e09aaa65386fa5d49542e8725428d263c Reviewed-on: https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/devtools/devtools-frontend/+/2197241 Reviewed-by: Shane Clifford <shanejc@microsoft.com> Reviewed-by: Brandon Goddard <brgoddar@microsoft.com> Commit-Queue: Songtao Xia <soxia@microsoft.com>
The client-side of the Chrome DevTools, including all JS & CSS to run the DevTools webapp.
The frontend is available on chromium.googlesource.com.
Please be aware that DevTools follows additional development guidelines.
In order to make changes to DevTools frontend, build, run, test, and submit changes, several workflows exist. Having depot_tools set up is a common prerequisite.
This workflow will ensure that your local setup is equivalent to how Chromium infrastructure tests your change. It also allows you to develop DevTools independently of the version in your Chromium checkout. This means that you don't need to update Chromium often, in order to work on DevTools.
In chromium/src, run gclient sync to make sure you have installed all required submodules.
gclient sync
Then, disable gclient sync for DevTools frontend inside of Chromium by editing .gclient config. From chromium/src/, simply run
vim $(gclient root)/.gclient
In the custom_deps section, insert this line:
"src/third_party/devtools-frontend/src": None,
Then run
gclient sync -D
This removes the DevTools frontend dependency. We now create a symlink to refer to the standalone checkout (execute in chromium/src and make sure that third_party/devtools-frontend exists):
(Note that the folder names do NOT include the trailing slash)
ln -s path/to/standalone/devtools-frontend third_party/devtools-frontend/src
Running gclient sync in chromium/src/ will update dependencies for the Chromium checkout. Running gclient sync in chromium/src/third_party/devtools-frontend/src will update dependencies for the standalone checkout.
As a standalone project, Chrome DevTools frontend can be checked out and built independently from Chromium. The main advantage is not having to check out and build Chromium. However, there is also no way to run layout tests in this workflow.
To check out the source for DevTools frontend only, follow these steps:
mkdir devtools cd devtools fetch devtools-frontend
To build, follow these steps:
cd devtools-frontend gn gen out/Default autoninja -C out/Default
The resulting build artifacts can be found in out/Default/resources/inspector.
To update to latest tip of tree version:
git fetch origin git checkout origin/master gclient sync
These steps work with Chromium 79 or later. To run the production build, use
(Requires brew install coreutils on Mac.)
<path-to-chrome>/chrome --custom-devtools-frontend=file://$(realpath out/Default/resources/inspector)
To run the debug build (directly symlinked to the original unminified source files), build both Chromium and DevTools frontend with the GN flag debug_devtools=true, and use
<path-to-chrome>/chrome --custom-devtools-frontend=file://$(realpath out/Default/resources/inspector/debug)
You can inspect DevTools with DevTools by undocking DevTools and then open the developers tools (F12 on Windows/Linux, Cmd+Option+I on Mac).
Test are available by running scripts in scripts/test/.
Usual steps for creating a change work out of the box.
Note that this will only work with the above two workflows
scripts/deps/roll_deps.py && npm run generate-protocol-resources.The following scripts run as AutoRollers, but can be manually invoked if desired:
scripts/deps/roll_to_chromium.py.roll-dep.DevTools frontend can also be developed as part of the full Chromium checkout. This workflow can be used to make small patches to DevTools as a Chromium engineer. However, it is different to our infrastructure setup and how to execute general maintenance work.
Follow instructions to check out Chromium. DevTools frontend can be found under third_party/devtools-frontend/src/.
Refer to instructions to build Chromium. To only build DevTools frontend, use devtools_frontend_resources as build target. The resulting build artifacts for DevTools frontend can be found in out/Default/resources/inspector.
Consider building with the GN flag debug_devtools=true to symlink to the original unminified source.
Run Chrome with DevTools frontend bundled:
out/Default/chrome
Test are available by running scripts in third_party/devtools-frontend/src/scripts/test/. After building content shell, we can also run layout tests that are relevant for DevTools frontend:
autoninja -C out/Default content_shell third_party/blink/tools/run_web_tests.py http/tests/devtools
Usual steps for creating a change work out of the box, when executed in third_party/devtools-frontend/src/.
Please refer to the overview document. The current test status can be seen at the test waterfall.
Merge request/approval is handled by Chromium Release Managers. DevTools follows The Zen of Merge Requests. In exceptional cases please get in touch with hablich@chromium.org.
Step-by-step guide on how to merge:
git cl format --jsFormats all code using clang-format.
npm run checkRuns all static analysis checks on DevTools code.
DevTools frontend repository is mirrored on GitHub.
DevTools frontend is also available on NPM as the chrome-devtools-frontend package. It's not currently available via CJS or ES2015 modules, so consuming this package in other tools may require some effort.
The version number of the npm package (e.g. 1.0.373466) refers to the Chromium commit position of latest frontend git commit. It's incremented with every Chromium commit, however the package is updated roughly daily.
