This is a Custom Object Formatter for rendering JSX objects in Chrome Devtools. Yes, you can see them in the console now!

How to use

import React from "jsx-jsonml-devtools-renderer";
class MyObject {
  type = 1;
  innerData = "innerData";
}
class MyObjectCustomFormatter implements React.CustomObjectFormatter {
  hasBody(obj: unknown) {
    if (obj instanceof MyObject) return true;
    return false;
  }
  body(obj: MyObject) {
    return (
      <div>
        <table>
          <tr style="background: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.6)">
            <td style="min-width: 4em">Type</td>
            <td>Value</td>
          </tr>
          <tr>
            <td>{obj.type}</td>
            <td>{obj.innerData}</td>
          </tr>
        </table>
      </div>
    );
  }
  header(obj: unknown) {
    if (!(obj instanceof MyObject)) return null;
    return <div>MyObject (type: {obj.type})</div>;
  }
}
React.installCustomObjectFormatter(new MyObjectCustomFormatter());

Standard Custom Object Formatters features

NON-Standard Custom Object Formatters features

• an onClick attribute is available for any tags except object. Due to technical limitation, the onClick event will be only fired once.
• an img tag. With attributes src(required), width(optional) and height(optional)
• a code tag.
• a br tag.
• a variant attribute is available for any tags except object. It can used to specify some default styles.

APIs

• Fragment (Used to support <></> syntax)
• createElement (used to support JSX)
• createElementTyped (same as createElement, but have a more stricter type)
• installCustomObjectFormatter(formatter) (install the formatter to Chrome devtools)
• isJSXElement(x) is it a JSX Element
• const [state, setState, forceRender] = useState(inspectedObject, initialStateCreator) (used to preserve states between renders)
