Vue tab not showing in FF

Open unnamed777 opened this issue 3 months ago • 2 comments

Sometimes after an error in my js code, I see endless loading animation on Vue tab https://i.imgur.com/QSE2Hvv.png. When I close devtools and open it again, the tab is disappeared. Sometimes I'm able to restore the tab by opening the extension popup ("Extensions" button -> "Vue.js devtools"). But most of the time I have to restart Firefox. Is there a way to restart the extension without restarting the browser? For instance, execute a js code in extension context in console (in about:debugging -> "inspect" on the extension)? I know that it's better to investigate the issue (it doesn't write errors in console), but I don't have time for now, and I want to find a workaround.

Firefox 142.0.1 Vue devtools 7.7.7

Hey everyone, I ran into this issue myself. I found out that the problem was that I had set my NODE_ENV=production in my env settings and that was causing the Vue tab to not show up in my developer tools.
