react-native-console-tools

Simple console commands to help you debug your React-Native application

Motivation

When we are developing React-Native applications, we want to log some things from the app or trigger some action but we don't want to install another tools in our computer, just use the debugger.

Instead import the RN libs and make a console log, we can use some helpful functions, like log all async storage items while debugging:

export default class App extends Component {
    componentDidMount() {
        RNCT.asyncStorage.logAll()
    }
    render() {
        return <View style={styles.container} />
    }
}

You don't need to import RNCT, it's a global variable.

Installation

Install

To install, run yarn add --dev react-native-console-tools or npm install --save-dev react-native-console-tools

Configuration

Once installed, at startup of your app, call the configure function:

import React, { Component } from 'react'
import { StyleSheet, View } from 'react-native'

import { configure } from 'react-native-console-tools'

configure({ enabled: __DEV__ }) //<--- here

export default class App extends Component {
    componentDidMount() {
        RNCT.asyncStorage.logAll()
    }
    render() {
        return <View style={styles.container} />
    }
}

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
    container: {
        flex: 1,
        justifyContent: 'center',
        alignItems: 'center',
        backgroundColor: 'red'
    }
})

That's it!

Available Loggers

AsyncStorage

You can call any method of AsyncStorage from RNCT.asyncStorage, plus:

RNCT.asyncStorage.logAll

It will log all saved items in the async storage.
