In my electron app I'd like to use console.trace() but want it to be collapsed by default. For that I use this in renderer process:
{
const {groupCollapsed, groupEnd, trace} = console;
console.trace = ((...args:any[]) =>
{
groupCollapsed(...args);
trace("");
groupEnd();
}).bind(console);
}
It works ok (time to time few messages from async functions getting grouped together), however in main process I'm bombarded by these messages (each trace call generates several lines):
[34352:0406/075851.692:ERROR:CONSOLE(6)] "console.assert", source: devtools://devtools/bundled/panels/console/console.js (6)
I'm unable reproduce this exact message with an electron snippet using electron v18.0.2, but it shows similar message instead:
[5636:0406/083113.750:INFO:CONSOLE(5)] "test", source: file:///C:/Users/dev/AppData/Local/Temp/tmp-34776-vztptWEofKLe/renderer.js (5)
[5636:0406/083113.751:INFO:CONSOLE(7)] "console.groupEnd", source: file:///C:/Users/dev/AppData/Local/Temp/tmp-34776-vztptWEofKLe/renderer.js (7)
so how can I see where that error is coming from (aka devtools://devtools/bundled/panels/console/console.js) and most importantly how to suppress it?
[EDIT]
This seems to have nothing to do with me replacing console.trace. It seems the issue is in electron itself. The last version that didn't have this issue was 18.0.0-alpha.5, since 18.0.0-beta.1 these messages appear. If I clear developer tools console, the messages stop for a while, but after some time they start showing up again with each message in dev tools.
