Troubleshooting

Visual Debugger​

Flyde comes with a visual debugger that can help you troubleshoot your flows. When using the "test flow" feature from the editor, you can see the flow's execution in real-time, and inspect the values of each node's inputs and outputs.

When running flows locally using the @flyde/runtime package, the runtime will try to connect to the local debugger server running from the visual editor automatically. If you're running the visual editor locally, you can see the flow's execution in real-time, and inspect the values of each node's inputs and outputs.

Extension Troubleshooting​

If something in the extension is not working as expected, you can look for errors in VSCode's dev tools. To do so, open the command palette and search for "Developer: Toggle Developer Tools". This will open a new window with the dev tools, where you can see errors and logs from everything running in VSCode, including the Flyde extension.

Verbose Logging​

Behind the scenes, Flyde uses the debug package to log debug information. You can enable debug logs by setting the DEBUG environment variable to flyde:*. For example, on a Unix-like system, you can run the following command to enable debug logs:

DEBUG=flyde:* node my-flow.js
