Adds an Ember tab to Chrome or Firefox Developer Tools that allows you to inspect Ember objects in your application.

Install the extension from the Chrome Web Store.

OR:

• Clone the repository
• cd into the repo directory
• run npm install && bower install
• run npm install -g ember-cli
• run npm run build to build the dist directory
• Visit chrome://extensions in chrome
• Make sure Developer mode is checked
• Click on 'Load unpacked extension...'
• Choose the dist/chrome folder in the cloned repo
• Close and re-open developer tools if it's already open

Install the Firefox addon.

OR:

• Clone the repository
• cd into the repo directory
• run npm install && bower install
• run npm install -g ember-cli
• run npm run build:xpi to build the dist directory, download Firefox Addon SDK and build Firefox Addon XPI to 'tmp/xpi/ember-inspector.xpi' or npm run run-xpi to run the Firefox Addon in a temporary profile (or use FIREFOX_BIN and FIREFOX_PROFILE to customize Firefox profile directory and Firefox binary used to run the extension)

• Clone the repository
• cd into the repo directory
• run npm install
• run npm install -g ember-cli
• run npm run build to build the dist directory
• Visit chrome://extensions in chrome
• Make sure Developer mode is checked

javascript: (function() { var s = document.createElement('script'); s.src = '//ember-extension.s3.amazonaws.com/dist_bookmarklet/load_inspector.js'; document.body.appendChild(s); }());

Internet explorer will open an iframe instead of a popup due to the lack of support for cross-origin messaging.

For development:

• run npm run serve:bookmarklet
• create a bookmark (make sure you unblock the popup when you run the bookmarklet):

javascript: (function() { var s = document.createElement('script'); s.src = 'http://localhost:9191/bookmarklet/load_inspector.js'; document.body.appendChild(s); }());

Run npm install && npm install -g ember-cli && && npm install -g bower && bower install && npm install -g grunt-cli to install the required modules.

• npm run build to build the files in the dist directory
• npm run watch To watch the files and re-build in dist when anything changes (useful during development).
• npm test To run the tests in the terminal
• npm run build:xpi to download and build Firefox Addon XPI into tmp/xpi/ember-inspector.xpi
• npm run run-xpi to run the Firefox Addon XPI on a temporary new profile (or use FIREFOX_BIN and FIREFOX_PROFILE to customize Firefox profile directory and Firefox binary used to run the extension)
• npm start To start the test server at localhost:4200/testing/tests

Patch versions are only committed to the stable branch. So we need to cherry-pick the commits we need from master and bump stable to the new patch version.

• git checkout stable
• Cherry-pick the needed commits from master to stable
• Bump the patch version in package.json and run grunt version. Add the change log entry and commit.
• Follow the "Steps to publish" below.
• git checkout master
• Commit the change log entry to the master branch.

When releasing a major/minor version, master would already have this version set, so what we need to do is to merge master into stable and release.

• Add the new minor/major version's change log entry in CHANGELOG.md and commit to master.
• git checkout stable
• git merge -X theirs master
• Follow the "Steps to publish" steps below.
• git checkout master
• Update package.json to the future major/minor version and run grunt version

• Push the stable branch to github (this will publish the bookmarklet version).
• npm run build:production
• Publish dist/chrome/ember-inspector.zip to the Chrome web store
• Publish tmp/xpi/ember-inspector.xpi to the Mozilla Addons
• npm publish ./
• git tag the new version

The Ember Inspector uses window messages, so if you are using window messages in your application code, make sure you verify the sender and add checks to your event listener so as not to conflict with the inspector's messages.
