I would like to be able to use devtools extensions like React Developer Tools to Atom in dev mode. How can I do that?
The official Electron documentation mentions a way to load devtools extensions in an Electron window, but I haven't been able to apply it to Atom.
I've tried variations of the following code in the init.coffee script of my .atom folder, but they all fail with some variant of "This method you're trying to access doesn't exist".
# Your init script
#
BrowserWindow = require('electron').remote.BrowserWindow
BrowserWindow.addDevToolsExtension("~/.config/chromium/Default/Extensions/fmkadmapgofadopljbjfkapdkoienihi/3.2.1_0/")
Which leads me to think I'm missing something. Is there a way to load devtools extensions from init.coffee, or should I try so other method? Either way, which is the simplest way to proceed?
Secondary question: I've also found this npm package that provides a simplified way to load devtools extensions in Electron. Is it possible at all to use it in Atom? I don't think you can add node modules to init.coffee.
