## Deployed builds
|
||||
|
||||
When tracking down a bug, first check if the issue you are noticing also exists in `master` or just your branch. Use [dev.graphite.rs](https://dev.graphite.rs) which should always deploy the lastest commit on `master`. By comparison, [editor.graphite.rs](https://editor.graphite.rs) is manually updated every few days or weeks to ensure stability. Use *Help* > *About Graphite* in the editor to view the build's [commit hash](https://github.com/GraphiteEditor/Graphite/commits/master).
|
||||
|
||||
## Printing to the console
|
||||
|
||||
Use the browser console (<kbd>F12</kbd>) to check for warnings and errors. Use the Rust macro `debug!("A debug message");` to print to the browser console. These statements should be for temporary debugging. Remove them before committing to `master`. Print-based debugging is necessary because breakpoints are not supported in WebAssembly.
|
||||
|
||||
Additional print statements are available that *should* be committed.
|
||||
|
||||
- `error!()` is for descriptive user-facing error messages arising from a bug
|
||||
- `warn!()` is for non-critical problems that likely indicate a bug somewhere
|
||||
- `trace!()` is for verbose logs of ordinary internal activity, hidden by default
|
||||
|
||||
To show `trace!()` logs, activate *Help* > *Debug: Print Trace Logs*.
|
||||
|
||||
## Message system logs
|
||||
|
||||
To also view logs of the messages dispatched by the message bus system, activate *Help* > *Debug: Print Messages* > *Only Names*. Or use *Full Contents* for more verbose insight with the actual data being passed. This is an invaluable window into the activity of the message flow and works well together with `debug!()` printouts for tracking down message-related issues.
|
||||
|
||||
## Layer paths and document IDs
|
||||
|
||||
In debug mode, hover over a layer's name in the Layer Tree panel to view a tooltip with its `u64` path. Likewise, document IDs may be read by hovering over their tabs.
