Summary: Changelog: Flipper message debugging moved from a separate device to the console tab This makes message debugging easier accessible, and in production (recently requested at GH). Also it clears up a lot of infra that was created just to make flipper a self recursive inspection device + a separate plugin. While fun, a hardcoded setup is just a bit more simpler (no exception rules and better static verification) Reviewed By: nikoant Differential Revision: D29487811 fbshipit-source-id: b412adc3ef5bd831001333443b432b6c0f934a5e
flipper-plugin
flipper-plugin is the dependency used by all modern Flipper plugins (project "Tommy").
For background: https://fb.quip.com/YHOGAnaPqAVJ
flipper-plugin is to be used as dev and peer dependency of all Flipper plugins. It provides:
- (TODO) Standard API's to interact with Flipper, such as the client connection.
- (TODO) Standard components to organize the UI
- (TODO) Testing utilities
API's provided by flipper-plugin are documented at fbflipper.com (TODO).
There should normally be no need to install flipper-plugin as dependency.
Rather, plugins should be scaffolded using npx flipper-pkg init (TODO) as documented here
