dart:developer library

Interact with developer tools such as the debugger and inspector.

This library is platform dependent and has separate implementations for both web and the Dart VM. A specific platform may not support all operations.

To use this library in your code:

import 'dart:developer';

Classes

Counter: A changing value. Initial value is 0.0.
Flow: A class to represent Flow events. [...]
Gauge: A measured value with a min and max. Initial value is min. Value will be clamped to the interval min, max.
Metric: Abstract Metric class. Metric names must be unique, are hierarchical, and use periods as separators. For example, 'a.b.c'. Uniqueness is only enforced when a Metric is registered. The name of a metric cannot contain the slash ('/') character.
Metrics
Service: Access information about the service protocol and control the web server that provides access to the services provided by the Dart VM for debugging and inspecting Dart programs.
ServiceExtensionResponse: A response to a service protocol extension RPC. [...]
ServiceProtocolInfo: Service protocol is the protocol that a client like the Observatory could use to access the services provided by the Dart VM for debugging and inspecting Dart programs. This class encapsulates the version number and Uri for accessing this service.
Timeline: Add to the timeline. [...]
TimelineTask: An asynchronous task on the timeline. An asynchronous task can have many (nested) synchronous operations. Synchronous operations can live longer than the current isolate event. To pass a TimelineTask to another isolate, you must first call pass to get the task id and then construct a new TimelineTask in the other isolate.
UserTag: A UserTag can be used to group samples in the Observatory profiler.

debugger({bool when: true, String message }) → bool: If when is true, stop the program as if a breakpoint were hit at the following statement. [...]
getCurrentTag() → UserTag: Returns the current UserTag for the isolate.
inspect(Object object) → Object: Send a reference to object to any attached debuggers. [...]
log(String message, { DateTime time, int sequenceNumber, int level: 0, String name: '', Zone zone, Object error, StackTrace stackTrace }) → void: Emit a log event. [...]
postEvent(String eventKind, Map eventData) → void: Post an event of eventKind with payload of eventData to the Extension event stream.
registerExtension(String method, ServiceExtensionHandler handler) → void: Register a ServiceExtensionHandler that will be invoked in this isolate for method. NOTE: Service protocol extensions must be registered in each isolate. [...]

ServiceExtensionHandler(String method, Map<String, String> parameters) → Future<ServiceExtensionResponse>: A service protocol extension handler. Registered with registerExtension. [...]
TimelineAsyncFunction() → Future
TimelineSyncFunction<T>() → T: A typedef for the function argument to Timeline.timeSync.
