BugEater (formerly LibDebug) Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 1.0 - R10

by: thelegendaryof [More]

IMPORTANT! Since this is no longer a simple Library rather an full Standalone Addon with an API

This has been renamed to BugEater instead of LibDebug !!!

Please do no longer include a local copy of this Addon with your own rather use it as an Dependency to access it 's API!

What 's new in 1.0 - R10:

Renamed to BugEater instead of LibDebug
Finally catches Syntax Errors as well. Yay.
Avoid Error-Flood. Makes Errors Unique and stops them from spamming
your Chat and Buffer. Enabled by Default (turn it off in Settings -> Debug Settings).
Updated for the new API-Version (100004)
Revamped UI. Look and feel as well as Features:
Monospace Font - AnkaCoder, support for unlimited Textlength, proper Line-Width Calculation as in automatically
splitting long lines (the native API doesn't do that), Scrollbar, Mousewheel, Scroll to Bottom, Copy all to Clipboard
Added Custom Filters. Supporting Lua-Style Regex-Patterns (more info).
Use it to e.g. hide "Looted Sword 123" while still showing "Looted Axe".
Or use it to hide only specific Errors from the Chat Window.
Added option to Suppress all Gui-Warnings
Including the famous To many Anchors Processed
(all of them are still shown in /error or /debug)
EditBuffer Component to get around native API-Limitations of TextBufferControl and EditControl.
Known limitations for now: No CTRL+A and no way to select all lines at once with the Mouse
(use the "COPY ALL TO CLIPBOARD" button instead)
Copy long Text over 1000 Characters to Clipboard (also found in: LibOrangUtils)
Renamed Debug-Suppression to Addon-Output-Suppression
to make it more clear that this should be disabled by default.
Some small fixes and code tweaking ...

Addon-Description:

BugEater v1.0 - Debugging Addon for Users & Debugging API for Developers ...

What it does for the User:

Suppress the native Error Dialog (thrown from any Addon or native code!)
Output Error-Messages in Chat (optional - enabled by default)
Catch any Addon Output before the Chat has been loaded and display it when it 's ready
Suppress any Addon Output in Chat - disabled by default
Will hide loot messages from Addons and similiar so beware with using this mindlessly!
Use LibDebug.d() for important messages to get around any filtering / suppression
/error and /debug command to open an Error- and Debug-Log with Copy & Paste functionality.
A single Window that opens only when you type the respective commands.
Debugging Output via d() is buffered (or simply said: Saved in the Memory). Even before the Addons
are loaded completely. So all Messages that have been output before the ChatWindow have been initialized
can be stored and displayed later on when the Chat is ready (Settings -> Debug Settings -> Show Pre-Init Debug).

What it does for the Developer:

Have a look at the Source and the API-Funcs below
to get an idea what you can do. Or just have a look with Zgoo (if it 's a Global)
All messages are stored in BugEater.Buffer - for example all d()-dump messages
are to be found in LibDebug.Buffer.DEBUG and all Error Messages are to be found
in LibDebug.Buffer.ERROR - those are stored here no matter if suppressed or not!
Add your own BUFFERS! Use the provided API-Functions for that ...

To get access to the API - add this to your Addon:

local BugEater = LibStub("BugEaterAPI-1.0")

API-Functions:

function BugEater:d(...) -- copy of the original and unmodified d()
function BugEater:AddMessage(string msg, string buffer = "DEBUG")
function BugEater:GetMessage(int index, string buffer)
function BugEater:GetNumMessages(string buffer)
function BugEater:PrintMessages(string buffer)
function BugEater:AddBuffer(string buffer)
function BugEater:GetBuffer(string buffer)
function BugEater:FlushBuffer(string buffer)
function BugEater:EnableErrorDialog()
function BugEater:DisableErrorDialog()

Credits:

- Andrey Makarov for AnkaCoder Monospace Font.
- Seerah for LibStub and LibAddonMenu as well as some UI setup inspiration from ZAM Notebook.

Cheers!

Known issues:

Somehow the native Error-Window can't be showed anymore.
I don't know what 's causing this right now but it has a small priority
because it 's useless to begin with and this aims at delivering a better UI.

Version 1.0 - R10 (Current):

Slightly improved Pre-Init Error-Detection and Suppression.

Version 1.0 - R9:

Cleaned up d() - it now takes multiple arguments and tables like before.
f.e.: d("this", "is", "a", "test", {["TEST123"] = true })

Version 1.0 - R8:

Now properly strips colors before calculating line-width
Renamed "Error catched:" to "Error caught:"

Version 1.0 - R7:

Avoid Error-Flood. Makes Errors Unique and stops them from spamming
your Chat and Buffer. Enabled by Default (turn it off in Settings -> Debug Settings).

Version 1.0 - R6:

Finally catches Syntax Errors as well. Yay.

Version 1.0 - R5:

Added Custom Filters. Supporting LUA-Style Regex-Patterns.
Use it to e.g. hide "Looted Sword 123" while still showing "Looted Axe".
Or use it to hide only specific Errors from the Chat Window.
Settings are now saved Account-Wide rather then Character-Specific.

Version 1.0 - R4:

Added option to Suppress all Gui-Warnings including the famous
"To many Anchors processed" (they are still shown in /error or /debug)
Updated for the new API-Version (100004)

Version 1.0 - R3:

Renamed from LibDebug to BugEater
Fixed small Bug with the Scrollbar

Version 1.0 - R2:

Revamed UI. Look and feel as well as features:
Monospace Font - AnkaCoder, Support for unlimited Textlength,
Scrollbar, Mousewheel, Scroll to Bottom, Copy All Button, ...
Implemented EditBuffer Component to get around native API-Limitations
of TextBufferControl and EditControl. Known limitations for now (workaround in progress):
No CTRL+A and no way to select all lines at once with the Mouse (use the "COPY ALL" button instead)
Implemented method to copy long text over 1000 characters to clipboard
Renamed Debug-Surpression to Addon-Output-Surpression
to make it more clear that this should be disabled by default.
Some small fixes and code tweaking

I requested it to be moved to Developer Utilities - seems like that Category isn't grabbed correctly by Minion. I'll forward that Info to Seerah!

Sounds good. Thanks.

All that 's missing is a visual scrollbar for now (which should be a cake, scrolling via mousewheel is already enabled): http://www.esoui.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1538 Release soon. Edit: Update R2 released! Have fun. Last edited by thelegendaryof : 05/20/14 at 12:23 PM.

thelegendaryof Forum posts: 161 File comments: 88 Uploads: 7	Update coming soon: I got what you guys ment. For anyone else that has a blockhead like me: d() like DUMP or /dump and not debug. I'll properly rename everything, make it more clear, hide it a bit more for the simple user and refrain from hooking it further and will move onto providing own debugging functions with levels/filters like suggested instead in future versions. Also: Rewritten Dumps with an own emulated EditBuffer that tries to work around the limitation of 1000 chars for Edit-Fields (Windows 98 I ***ing greet you) and scroll support as well as usage of a custom Monospace-Font which will look more ugly but is ultimatively better for coding as I can correctly calculate the line-width and number of lines in case of to long lines (funnly the native client isn't able to do that even for the TextBuffer control).

Seems no gamebreaker thought, I'll try to fix that in the next few days together with the next update.

Indeed ...

I'm still waiting for the rest of my Hardware to get delivered before I can / will start playing and developing again.

My PSU und CPU-Cooler are missing with the status that the package has been
"wrongly labeled and will be corrected, enabling it to be delivered to the correct recipient"

Lua Code:

Is line 260, which I modified for 1.0.1 - if it 's still producing errors I'll have to have a closer look at it and change it to be more strict

Also does the error dialogue popup with suppression enabled or do they get thrown in the buffer / chat correctly?
