I just attempted to build ios-webkit-debug-proxy on Ubuntu 13.04, but got the following errors when running 'make':

Any ideas what I can do to get around this? I desperately need to debug some issues via Safari Mobile, don't have a Mac, and have had massive issues with Weinre staying failing. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,

Here's my environment:

1. I installed ios-webkit-debug-proxy using brew without problem on my Mac.
2. I have xcode insalled. I can start simulator without any issue.

Here's what I did:

1. Start simulator. Pick iPhone Retina with iOS 6.
2. Make sure that in the simulator, Safari's Advanced setting has Web Inspector "on".
3. Start Safari in the simulator, and navigate to google.com.
4. Start "ios-webkit-debug-proxy -d" (i.e. with debug on) on Mac.
5. Start Chrome. And enter the URL "localhost:9221".
6. I can see the simulator tagged as localhost:9222.
7. Click the link "localhost:9222", and I see "www.google.com" listed as an inspectable page.
8. I click "www.google.com", and got the page "No Data Received".
   8 In the console, I see that ios-webkit-debug-proxy's output says "send failed: Socket is not connected".

Am I missing something here? How can I correct this? Thanks.

Has anyone else experienced this issue? Not sure if its related to ios-webkit-debug-proxy or not.

I'm trying to install it on Mac OSX 10.9

I couldn't find an issue for it so I've created this one to track it.

In the mean-time I'm using https://github.com/artygus/ios-webkit-debug-proxy-win32

I can't connect, I get this error running the following command. iPhone 5 connected with web inspector turned on.

I tried to give it a try by brew install ios-webkit-debug-proxy but got Error: No available formula for ios-webkit-debug-proxy. Is it removed?

I'm running ios-webkit-debug-proxy in an Ubuntu VM so I can use it on Windows, and I've found that the web UI assumes that the pages will always be served from localhost.

It should be using the current request's hostname/IP address instead (it works fine if you edit the address yourself, but it's a pain when working with multiple tabs).

It'd be nice if we could use chrome dev tools to test with the iOS simulator. It will be faster and more robust (less websocket disconnects)

Dont know whether this proxy will go to google's server or not,the debug of Chrome for android is blocked by GWF in China,and now this proxy give me "send failed: Socket is not connected" when I click a page to debug,I can view the device list and see the pages,but can not debug it,if the proxy go to google's server,then it's blocked by GWF too ;(

During the startup of the proxy it segfaults. I attached the debug output.
The host system is Ubuntu 13.10. If more information is needed, please mail me.
The idevice is an iPad mini retina with iOS 7.0.4 running.

Is it possible to use an updated version of DevTools, the one contained within Blink (Source/devtools) for example? Currently, inspecting a page at http://localhost:9222/devtools/devtools.html?host=localhost:9222&page=1 using ios-webkit-debug-proxy presents a much older version of the Developer Tools.

Actually I can't edit styles in the default address provided:
http://chrome-devtools-frontend.appspot.com/static/18.0.1025.74/devtools.html

I already tried the -f option using some url's provided here as:
http://chrome-devtools-frontend.appspot.com/static/27.0.1453.93/devtools.html

But I doesn't seems to work. Any tips?

When attempting to send a large javascript expression I noticed that I keep getting disconnected.

This works fine:
{"id": 1, "method": "Runtime.evaluate", "params": {"expression": " document.title", "objectGroup": "console", "returnByValue": true }}

This works fine:
{"id": 1, "method": "Runtime.evaluate", "params": {"expression": "(function(name){console.info('printed: ' + name)})('small number of characters')", "objectGroup": "console", "returnByValue": true }}

This fails:
{"id": 1, "method": "Runtime.evaluate", "params": {"expression": "(function(name){console.info('printed: ' + name)})('Add more than 7500 characters here.....etc.(didn't want to flood this ticket :))')", "objectGroup": "console", "returnByValue": true }}

Running this on the console gives the same result:
http://localhost:27753/devtools/devtools.html?host=localhost:27753&page=1

We are attempting to send a compressed javascript library (e.g. the webdriver find_element library as part of the request) which contains more than 7500 characters.

Any suggestions on how this could be resolved?

Thanks,

Sergio

This is what I see when I run the proxy. Everything is fully updated (Xcode 5, etc.).

This is what I see when I go to to http://localhost:9221 (which I assume is correct). That link takes me to a full-screen inspector view, but styles don't populate in the Styles pane on the right and nothing populates in the Timeline when reloading the page in the Simulator window. The rendered source does load in the Inspector and corresponding elements highlight correctly in the Simulator when hovering in Inspector, so I presume everything is getting hung up on the problem with the proxy.

Any ideas on what could be wrong?

brew install ios-webkit-debug-proxy fails to install cmake.

brew doctor tells me:

Warning: You are using Mac OS X 10.9.
We do not yet provide support for this (unreleased) version.

Can someone explain step-by-step how to install all necessary dependencies manually to build the project from the source?

I don't know how best to describe this issue, but it seems that there's a mismatch in the expected name of requestAnimationFrame events which breaks the timeline.

I was able to "fix" this problem by overwriting some WebkitInspector code; see the // BEGIN comments

WebInspector.TimelinePanel.prototype._innerAddRecordToTimeline = function(record, parentRecord)
{
    var connectedToOldRecord = false;
    var recordTypes = WebInspector.TimelineAgent.RecordType;

    if (record.type === recordTypes.RegisterAnimationFrameCallback) {
        this._registeredAnimationCallbackRecords[record.data["id"]] = record;
        return;
    }

    if (record.type === recordTypes.MarkDOMContent || record.type === recordTypes.MarkLoad)
        parentRecord = null;
    else if (parentRecord === this._rootRecord ||
    record.type === recordTypes.ResourceReceiveResponse ||
    record.type === recordTypes.ResourceFinish ||
    record.type === recordTypes.ResourceReceivedData) {
        var newParentRecord = this._findParentRecord(record);
        if (newParentRecord) {
            parentRecord = newParentRecord;
            connectedToOldRecord = true;
        }
    }

    var children = record.children;
    var scriptDetails;
    if (record.data && record.data["scriptName"]) {
        scriptDetails = {
            scriptName: record.data["scriptName"],
            scriptLine: record.data["scriptLine"]
        }
    }
    ;

    if ((record.type === recordTypes.TimerFire || record.type === recordTypes.FireAnimationFrameEvent) && children && children.length) {
        var childRecord = children[0];
        if (childRecord.type === recordTypes.FunctionCall) {
            scriptDetails = {
                scriptName: childRecord.data["scriptName"],
                scriptLine: childRecord.data["scriptLine"]
            };
            children = childRecord.children.concat(children.slice(1));
        }
    }

    // BEGIN HACKY FIX
    if (record.type === "RequestAnimationFrame") {
      record.type = "RegisterAnimationFrameCallback";
    }

    if (record.type === "FireAnimationFrame") {
      record.type = "FireAnimationFrameEvent";
    }
    // END HACKY FIX


    var formattedRecord = new WebInspector.TimelinePanel.FormattedRecord(record, parentRecord, this, scriptDetails);

    if (record.type === recordTypes.MarkDOMContent || record.type === recordTypes.MarkLoad) {
        this._timeStampRecords.push(formattedRecord);
        return;
    }

    ++this._rootRecord._allRecordsCount;
    formattedRecord.collapsed = (parentRecord === this._rootRecord);

    var childrenCount = children ? children.length : 0;
    for (var i = 0; i < childrenCount; ++i)
        this._innerAddRecordToTimeline(children[i], formattedRecord);

    formattedRecord._calculateAggregatedStats(this.categories);

    if (connectedToOldRecord) {
        record = formattedRecord;
        do {
            var parent = record.parent;
            parent._cpuTime += formattedRecord._cpuTime;
            if (parent._lastChildEndTime < record._lastChildEndTime)
                parent._lastChildEndTime = record._lastChildEndTime;
            for (var category in formattedRecord._aggregatedStats)
                parent._aggregatedStats[category] += formattedRecord._aggregatedStats[category];
            record = parent;
        } while (record.parent);
    } else
    if (parentRecord !== this._rootRecord)
        parentRecord._selfTime -= formattedRecord.endTime - formattedRecord.startTime;


    if (record.type === recordTypes.TimeStamp)

Hi there,

The following error happens as I'm running the ios_webkit_debug_proxy for a little while on:

chrome-devtools://devtools/devtools.html?host=localhost:9222&page=2

The error is the following:

Please re-attach to the new target.

I just pulled, ran auto, config, and make steps, make gives errors including:

My iPhone's name has a ’ (RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK / ’) character in it.

In the debug proxy, this appears as ’. It appears to be sending UTF-8 output, but the server is misrepresenting it as ISO-8859-1.

Hi there,

been having problems with the build on my machine.
firstly, I needed to install libimobiledevice-dev, which is not on your instructions and is needed.

now it's giving me the following error:
/usr/include/libimobiledevice/installation_proxy.h:31:18: fatal error: glib.h: No such file or directory

any help, please?

cheers in advance

When running examples/wdp_client.js I'm cccasionally seeing Segmentation fault: 11 after Safari has loaded the page.

Not had a chance to dig in at any depth yet.

Test environment is iPad 2 running iOS 6.1

Running on OSX 10.8 build was using the formula @janl provided in #1 (comment)

I've got an iPad, iPhone and simulator (all iOS) hooked up to the proxy.

I can inspect Safari on the iPad and simulator but although the iPhone is listed by the proxy there is no link to inspect it.

Any ideas why this would happen?

(I'm assuming it may not actually be a proxy issue and the device doesn't show up at all in desktop Safari, so trying to debug that at the moment)

Cannot install through brew install ios-webkit-debug-proxy

element -> style box go empty

We are are making multiple requests and finding that the proxy isn't always able to handle them accordingly. We dont received a response and the web socket connection is closed.

When running the proxy in debug mode we do see the response coming back from the device (webInspector protocol) however this is never returned by the proxy to us.

If you would like to see this in action please find a test example here:

1. Unpack the zip file
2. Run sudo npm install ws and sudo npm install optimist in the unpacked folder.
3. Attach an iOS device and open mobile safari
4. Start the proxt "ios_webkit_debug_proxy -c :27752-27758 -d"
5. Run the wdp_client.js test (multiple times).

The test contains 5 requests, which when run repeatedly sometimes get executed and sometimes the web socket is disconnected.

Any ideas why this is happening?

Regards,

Sergio

Please create a tag so that we can use brew to install the latest version of the proxy (including the 8k size fix).

Thanks,

Sergio

Hi,

as discussed in #2, I'm reporting this issue as a separate one. The build was successful but when attaching my iPhone 5, ios-webkit-debug-proxy crashes with a segfault.

This is using OSX 10.8.3 and building manually from master (not the brew formula - that also fails though).

Downgrading to libimobiledevice to 1.1.4 "fixes" it.

wi_script.c used to work well in ios 6

In ios 7, it seems not get triggered event from wi_recv_applicationConnected() of webinspector.c

It would be nice to see update on this.

When requesting network responses which do not have a content-length, such as network responses returned from cache, the WebSocket response gives a ridiculous content-length (in this case, nearly a Petabyte - but it varies).

WebSocket connection to 'ws://192.168.7.82:9222/devtools/page/2' failed: WebSocket frame length too large: 898872230752645 bytes

As I can't see any code wherein ios-webkit-debug-proxy reads response headers, I can only presume that this is an issue with Safari's inspector WebSocket implementation, and that the limitation is suppressed when Safari sends data over USB.

This can be reproduced by following these steps;

1. Load any page which uses cachable resources (A web page using jQuery from Google's CDN is a good example)
2. Open the inspector (A) to monitor network requests
3. Open your browser's inspector (B) on the inspector page (A) which is pointed at the device
4. Reload the page
5. Click on the cached resource in inspector A (and note that the response headers do not include content-length)
6. Click "Preview" or "Response"
7. A WebSocket error such as the one above appears in the browser's error console (inspector B)

Is this likely to be something that can be fixed?

It seems that the web views for the Chrome browser do not show up on the proxy.

Does the chrome browser on iOS support remote debugging and if so does it require the web inspector protocol or the webkit protocol?

Would it be possible to make these web view(s) available to the proxy as well?

Thanks,

Sergio

Steps to reproduce:

• Attached iPhone 5, iOS version 6.1 (10B143)
• Started usbmuxd
• Started ios_webkit_debug_proxy
• Went to device list, clicked on my iPhone, clicked on the page that was open
• Result: debugger shows up but shows no content, error shows up in console

Operating system: Ubuntu 13.04, reverted commit to make it compile (issue #32)

In advance - sorry this isn't about this project code, but actually just getting to build - hoping someone will still help.

I'm on a Mac. Used sudo port install libplist which works, and I can see various files in /opt/local/include/plist including plist.h.

I go through the build instructions for this project, but it fails at the make with:

» make

Any tips?

Also - very pleased this project was released - my company was/is working on something very similar, but we couldn't get past the USB transport stage: https://github.com/leftlogic/remote-debug

The program immediately segfaults if you do the following process;

1. Connect device, start ios_webkit_debug_proxy
2. Open debugger to an open page
3. Lock the device or allow it to lock automatically
4. Attempt to use the debugger

Running on Ubuntu 13.04 with libplist 1.10, libusbmuxd 1.0.8 and libimobiledevice 1.1.5.

I get the impression from the readme that ios_webkit_debug_proxy should be able to start with no devices attached, and survive disconnections and reconnections. Neither appear to be the case in the environment I'm using it in.

As noted by Umar (#12 (comment)) and unbug (#19 (comment) ):

If you use "-f" to load a recent WebKit frontend inspector, e.g.:
http://chrome-devtools-frontend.appspot.com/static/27.0.1453.93/devtools.html
the DevTools UI can't inspect element styles.

Safari's inspector was branched from WebKit and they've apparently diverged. The likely fix is to patch the WebKit / Blink inspector JavaScript to restore Safari support.

Hi,

1. Have Safari running on a tethered iOS device.
2. Launch the proxy with -c :9222 (not sure if -c matters).
3. Quickly (as in -- scripted) make requests to http://localhost:9222/json.

A few first requests will return "[]", then it will begin returning a correct list of tabs.

I suspect it's a race between the HTTP requests and the proxy's handshake with the device.

Could the proxy hold HTTP responses until the handshake is done? The requests would just take a few seconds when made right after launching the proxy.

homebrew would like a tagged release to point to for installation:

Homebrew/legacy-homebrew#17839 (diff)

I've got all the necessary items installed for this to work. I get no errors anywhere, except when I actually try to go to port 9221. I get a "Google Chrome could not connect to localhost:9221" error. Here's an image of my console, the ios simulator, and my web browser: http://i.imgur.com/QawXsBN.png.

I've tried looking around, but I can't find anything. Can anyone figure out what might be wrong?

It would be helpful for Homebrew ( Homebrew/legacy-homebrew#17839 ) to have a 1.1 version tagged that includes the clang fix. (In the meanwhile we can carry the patch for that commit.)

I'm using os x 10.9, after brew install ios_webkit_debug_proxy

I can list my devices on port 9221
but can't open inspect page on my ipad

iOS Devices:
localhost:9222 - Sean's iPad

But port 9222 fail to load Oops! Google Chrome could not connect to localhost:9222

I have adopt wi_script example into my project, and find out problem of possible memory leak. So, I go back to check original example, it also approves my guess.

I use valgrind together with wi_script. Result is as followings:

While we currently have the ability to persist network request tracking across pages:

There does not appear to be a way to do the same for the console log:

This would be a very useful addition.

I updated my libimobiledevice by compiling it earlier, now I'm able to see and view files from the iPad 7.1, but when I run libimobiledevice, it returns with no error message.

I was not able to get chrome dev tools profiler working when using Ipad device or using simulator. I couldn't find any issue related to profiler working or not working. Just want to make sure that this feature is not supposed to work since the safari debug tools don't have a profiler.

When I use profiler I see blank screen and see JS error:

Request with id = 23 failed. Method not found(-32601): 'Profiler.getProfile' wasn't found.

All the profile windows are empty
