# redux-devtools-inspector-monitor

[![npm version](https://badge.fury.io/js/redux-devtools-inspector.svg)](https://badge.fury.io/js/redux-devtools-inspector)

A state monitor for [Redux DevTools](https://github.com/reduxjs/redux-devtools) that provides a convenient way to inspect "real world" app states that could be complicated and deeply nested. Created by [@alexkuz](https://github.com/alexkuz) and merged from [`alexkuz/redux-devtools-inspector`](https://github.com/alexkuz/redux-devtools-inspector) into [`reduxjs/redux-devtools` monorepo](https://github.com/reduxjs/redux-devtools).

### Installation

```
yarn add @redux-devtools/inspector-monitor
```

### Usage

You can use `Inspector` as the only monitor in your app:

##### `containers/DevTools.js`

```js
import React from 'react';
import { createDevTools } from '@redux-devtools/core';
import { InspectorMonitor } from '@redux-devtools/inspector-monitor';

export default createDevTools(<InspectorMonitor />);
```

Then you can render `<DevTools>` to any place inside app or even into a separate popup window.

Alternative, you can use it together with [`DockMonitor`](https://github.com/reduxjs/redux-devtools/tree/master/packages/redux-devtools-dock-monitor) to make it dockable.  
Consult the [`DockMonitor` README](https://github.com/reduxjs/redux-devtools/tree/master/packages/redux-devtools-dock-monitor) for details of this approach.

### Features

The inspector displays a list of actions and a preview panel which shows the state after the selected action and a diff with the previous state. If no actions are selected, the last state is shown.

You may pin a certain part of the state to only track its changes.

### Props

| Name                 | Type              | Description                                                                                                                                                       |
| -------------------- | ----------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `theme`              | Object or string  | Contains either [base16](https://github.com/chriskempson/base16) theme name or object, that can be `base16` colors map or object containing classnames or styles. |
| `invertTheme`        | Boolean           | Inverts theme color luminance, making light theme out of dark theme and vice versa.                                                                               |
| `supportImmutable`   | Boolean           | Better `Immutable` rendering in `Diff` (can affect performance if state has huge objects/arrays). `false` by default.                                             |
| `tabs`               | Array or function | Overrides list of tabs (see below)                                                                                                                                |
| `diffObjectHash`     | Function          | Optional callback for better array handling in diffs (see [jsondiffpatch docs](https://github.com/benjamine/jsondiffpatch/blob/master/docs/arrays.md))            |
| `diffPropertyFilter` | Function          | Optional callback for ignoring particular props in diff (see [jsondiffpatch docs](https://github.com/benjamine/jsondiffpatch#options))                            |

If `tabs` is a function, it receives a list of default tabs and should return updated list, for example:

```
defaultTabs => [...defaultTabs, { name: 'My Tab', component: MyTab }]
```

If `tabs` is an array, only provided tabs are rendered.

`component` is provided with `action` and other props, see [`ActionPreview.jsx`](src/ActionPreview.jsx#L42) for reference.

Usage example: [`redux-devtools-inspector-monitor-test-tab`](https://github.com/reduxjs/redux-devtools/tree/master/packages/redux-devtools-inspector-monitor-test-tab#containersdevtoolsjs).
