Question: inspecting long strings (they get truncated in Vs Code's debug console)

Open feliperaul opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

First of all, I recently discovered that when using Vs Code's debug console I can actually click on each line output and it will expand the object (so if it's an array or a hash, it will expand it just like the Chrome debugger does).

🤯

That's amazing 👏🏻

Having said that, how exactly can I inspect a long string?

This is what I get even when I click on it:

So it always gets truncated, even if I try to copy the #dump part.

How to actually inspect the long string in the debug console?

This has been pretty frustrating with trying to debug some long XML creation. Any ideas on how to work around it?
