# Development Several files which are needed for developing on MetaMask. Usually each file or directory contains information about its scope / usage. ## Segment ### Debugging with the Mock Segment API To start the [Mock Segment API](./mock-segment.js): - Add/replace the `SEGMENT_HOST` and `SEGMENT_WRITE_KEY` variables in `.metamaskrc` ``` SEGMENT_HOST='http://localhost:9090' SEGMENT_WRITE_KEY='FAKE' ``` - Build the project to the `./dist/` folder with `yarn dist` - Run the Mock Segment API from the command line ``` node development/mock-segment.js ``` Events triggered whilst using the extension will be logged to the console of the Mock Segment API. More information on the API and its usage can be found [here](./mock-segment.js#L28). ### Debugging in Segment To debug in a production Segment environment: - Create a free account on [Segment](https://segment.com/) - Create a New Workspace - Add a Source (Node.js) - Copy the `Write Key` from the API Keys section under Settings - Add/replace the `SEGMENT_HOST` and `SEGMENT_WRITE_KEY` variables in `.metamaskrc` ``` SEGMENT_HOST='https://api.segment.io' SEGMENT_WRITE_KEY='COPIED_WRITE_KEY' ``` - Build the project to the `./dist/` folder with `yarn dist` Events triggered whilst using the extension will be displayed in Segment's Debugger. ### Debugging Segment requests in MetaMask To opt in to MetaMetrics; - Unlock the extension - Open the Account menu - Click the `Settings` menu item - Click the `Security & Privacy` menu item - Toggle the `Participate in MetaMetrics` menu option to the `ON` position You can inspect the requests in the `Network` tab of your browser's Developer Tools (background.html) by filtering for `POST` requests to `/v1/batch`. The full url will be `http://localhost:9090/v1/batch` or `https://api.segment.io/v1/batch` respectively. ## Sentry ### Debugging in Sentry To debug in a production Sentry environment: - If you have not already got a Sentry account, you can create a free account on [Sentry](https://sentry.io/) - Create a New Sentry Organization - If you already have an existing Sentry account and workspace, open the sidebar drop down menu, then click `Switch organization` followed by `Create a new organization` - Create a New Project - Copy the `Public Key` and `Project ID` from the Client Keys section under your projects Settings - Select `Settings` in the sidebar menu, then select `Projects` in the secondary menu. Click your project then select `Client Keys (DSN)` from the secondary menu. Click the `Configure` button on the `Client Keys` page and copy your `Project Id` and `Public Key` - Add/replace the `SENTRY_DSN` and `SENTRY_DSN_DEV` variables in `.metamaskrc` ``` SENTRY_DSN_DEV=https://{SENTRY_PUBLIC_KEY}@sentry.io/{SENTRY_PROJECT_ID} SENTRY_DSN=https://{SENTRY_PUBLIC_KEY}@sentry.io/{SENTRY_PROJECT_ID} ``` - Build the project to the `./dist/` folder with `yarn dist` Errors reported whilst using the extension will be displayed in Sentry's `Issues` page. ## Source Maps ### Debugging production builds using Source Maps To unbundle the extensions compiled and minified JavaScript using Source Maps: - Open Chrome DevTools to inspect the `background.html` or `home.html` view - Click on the `Sources` tab in Chrome DevTools - In the Sources tab, click on the `Page` panel - Expand the file directory in the Page panel until you see the source files you're after - Select a source file in the Page panel ``` chrome-extension://{EXTENSION_ID}/common-0.js ``` - Double click the source file to open it in the Workspace - Right click in the body of the source file and select `Add source map...` - Enter the path to the corresponding source map file, and Click `Add` ``` file:///{LOCAL_FILE_SYSTEM}/metamask-extension/dist/sourcemaps/common-0.js.map ``` - Repeat the steps above as necessary adding all the relevant source map files - Your source maps should now be added to the DevTools Console, and you should be able to see your original source files when you debug your code
