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:

  • 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.

Debugging in Segment

To debug in a production Segment environment:

  • Create a free account on Segment
  • 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 Sentry

  1. Set SENTRY_DSN_DEV, or SENTRY_DSN if using a production build, in .metamaskrc to a suitable Sentry URL.
  • The example value specified in .metamaskrc.dist uses the test-metamask project in the MetaMask account.
  • Alternatively, create a free Sentry account with a new organization and project.
  • The DSN is specified in: Settings > Projects > [Project Name] > Client Keys (DSN).
  1. To display Sentry logs, include DEBUG=metamask:sentry:* in .metamaskrc.

  2. To display more verbose logs if not in a developer build, include METAMASK_DEBUG=true in .metamaskrc.

  3. Ensure metrics are enabled during onboarding or via Settings > Security & privacy > Participate in MetaMetrics.

  4. To test Sentry via the developer options in the UI, include ENABLE_SETTINGS_PAGE_DEV_OPTIONS=true in .metamaskrc.

  5. Alternatively, call window.stateHooks.throwTestError() or window.stateHooks.throwTestBackgroundError() via the UI console.

Debugging the Publish Release Flow

Sentry UI Setup

  1. Go to Sentry and Create an Organization, by clicking Account Menu > Switch organization > Create a new organization
  2. Create a Javascript Project, by clicking Projects > Create Project > Javascript
  3. Create a User Auth Token, by clicking Account Menu > User auth tokens
  4. Select your newly created project and grant all permissions to your token
  5. Copy your token to your clipboard

Sentry-Cli Setup

  1. Go to your terminal, inside the metamask-extension project
  2. Login to Sentry using the command line yarn sentry-cli login --auth-token YOUR_TOKEN
  3. List your organizations and copy the id for the organization you want to see yarn sentry-cli organizations list
  4. List your organization projects and copy the id for the you created yarn sentry-cli projects list --org YOUR_ORG_ID

Publish a Release to Sentry

  1. Build your desired MetaMask project. Examples:
    1. yarn dist to create an MV3 build
    2. yarn dist:mv2 to create an MV2 build
    3. (and so on)
  2. Move the build to its corresponding folder. Ie: mv dist dist-mv2 (skip this step, if you did the regular MV3 build)
  3. Publish the release to Sentry:
    1. If it's an MV3 build yarn sentry:publish --org YOUR_ORG_ID --project YOUR_PROJECT_ID
    2. If it's an MV2 build yarn sentry:publish --dist mv2 --org YOUR_ORG_ID --project YOUR_PROJECT_ID
  4. See build files and source maps are uploaded
  5. Go to Sentry
  6. Check the Source Maps have been uploaded correctly in Sentry: go to Settings > Projects > Project Name > Source Maps

Extra Note: if you already uploaded one version, you can change the package.json version and run again the publish step, to test the complete flow.

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
