Is #28584 handled in the update?

@hoxyq just a heads-up: it seems there was an issue with the release to the Chrome Web Store. The latest version of React Dev Tools (5.3.1 from 7/3/2024) is still the only one available there. The new version is currently available only on Firefox and Edge.

I am aware of this, and actively working on unblocking this. We have some issues with our account at Chrome Extensions store, which we are trying to resolve ASAP.

It is published now.

Did this remove the getSourceForFiber function from __REACT_DEVTOOLS_GLOBAL_HOOK__.rendererInterfaces.get(1), because I am not able to access it right now.

Earlier I used to do this:

__REACT_DEVTOOLS_GLOBAL_HOOK__.rendererInterfaces.get(1).getSourceForFiber(<some fiber here>);

If yes, what would be the alternative to get the source for a react fiber?

Yes, it did. Technically, React DevTools hook should not be treated as public API, so any breaking changes are expected.
How do you use it? And what exactly do you need: JSX callsite or the component or component's definition (render function)?

The main reason for removal is that React DevTools now operates with its own instance of a Node, which is not necessarily Fiber. This is done to support Server Components.

It was surely used by https://www.locatorjs.com/ to open the component source using the option + click shortcut

@piotrski But locatorjs works only on dev environment (they use _debugSource). I need to get sources of an element on the deployed react website (even if the sources are minifed, because I have sourcemaps to decode them).

I'm building an AI agent to add event listeners to your frontend code, just by selecting an element on your deployed website. For this to work, there is prerequisite that you need to upload the code's sourcemaps.

Earlier I used to do it like this

__REACT_DEVTOOLS_GLOBAL_HOOK__.rendererInterfaces.get(1).getSourceForFiber(e.__fiber);

With this I used to get the minified sources, and then using sourcemaps, I used to decode the original location of the DOM node.

Essentially what I need is the jsx callsite, when the element is being called and rendered in the codebase.

This will only be available in React 19.1+ (this is currently in experimental).

I am okay with adding some public API to React DevTools, something like getHostElementSource(element: HostInstance): string, where element is HTMLElement for Web (e. g. with react-dom renderer), but probably in another form.

But I don't think that this should be part of the extension code. Basically, your product only works if user has React DevTools installed.

Yes, you are right. Currently, my product only works if the user has React DevTools installed.
Can I extract the source of a DOM node currently without depending on the React Devtools extension?
If yes, please point me to where I can look to implement this in my code.

Yeah, you can try to reverse-engineer the whole thing. But you have to account for different version of React: they might have different internals and constants.

I would start from getSourceForFiber, which changed in e44685e.
