Brian Vaughn feb2f6892a DevTool: hook names cache no longer loses entries between selection (#21831)
Made several changes to the hooks name cache to avoid losing cached data between selected elements:
1. No longer use React-managed cache. This had the unfortunate side effect of the inspected element cache also clearing the hook names cache. For now, instead, a module-level WeakMap cache is used. This isn't great but we can revisit it later.
2. Hooks are no longer the cache keys (since hook objects get recreated between element inspections). Instead a hook key string made of fileName + line number + column number is used.
3. If hook names have already been loaded for a component, skip showing the load button and just show the hook names by default when selecting the component.

This is the source code for the React DevTools browser extension.

Installation

The easiest way to install this extension is as a browser add-on:

Local development

You can also build and install this extension from source.

Prerequisite steps

DevTools depends on local versions of several NPM packages1 also in this workspace. You'll need to either build or download those packages first.

1 Note that at this time, an experimental build is required because DevTools depends on the createRoot API.

Build from source

To build dependencies from source, run the following command from the root of the repository:

yarn build-for-devtools

Download from CI

To use the latest build from CI, run the following commands starting from the root of the repository:

cd scripts/release
yarn install
./download-experimental-build.js

Build steps

Once the above packages have been built or downloaded, you can build the extension by running:

cd packages/react-devtools-extensions/

yarn build:chrome # => packages/react-devtools-extensions/chrome/build
yarn run test:chrome # Test Chrome extension

yarn build:firefox # => packages/react-devtools-extensions/firefox/build
yarn run test:firefox # Test Firefox extension
