Description
A probably buggy inspector for flow GUIs to help with debugging layouting.
Usage 🔗
/inspector: Toggles the inspector for all flow forms opened withform:show().
Hot reload 🔗
When the "hot reload" button is pressed, the server reloads the file containing
the function passed to flow.make_gui. This file must have exactly one
flow.make_gui call for hot reload to work. Existing values in ctx are
preserved when hot reloading.
The file containing flow.make_gui shouldn't contain any registrations (for
example minetest.register_globalstep) as it may result in them being
registered multiple times.
Open debug shell 🔗
If you're running Minetest in a terminal, an "open debug shell" button will
be shown which will call debug.debug() (or dbg.dd() if the dbg mod is
installed) when pressed. player, ctx, and name variables are set when the
debug shell is open.
API 🔗
flow_inspector.enable(player): Enables the inspector.flow_inspector.disable(player): Disables the inspector.flow_inspector.inspect(player, form): Opens the inspector forform.
Exactly what I needed!
Eliminates countless questionable debugging strategies I've resorted to by doing things the right way. (just don't look at the source for this mod too closely - there's some hacks there for sure lol)
