Debug JavaScript on your mobile device from the comfort of your desktop browser.
Originally developed by Joe Hewitt: Announcement - Subversion
This is rough around the edges.
Tested running on Chrome OSX with a 3.0 iPhone 3GS.
-
Download and install Node.js: http://nodejs.org/#download
-
Run the server:
node server.js. -
You can specify host/port if you'd like:
node server.js example.com:80. -
Point a browser at the server, http://YOUR_IP:8001/. This is your console.
-
You can use 127.0.0.1 as YOUR_IP but this will not work on an actual device.
-
Paste
<script type="application/x-javascript" src="http://YOUR_IP:8001/ibug.js"></script>into the page you want to debug. -
Open the page you want to debug in your browser. This is your client.
-
Type
alert('Hello world!')in your console window. -
BAM.
