devtools-detect

Detect if DevTools is open and its orientation

Useful for when you want something special to happen when DevTools is open. Like pausing canvas, adding style debug info, etc.

Demo

Install

npm install devtools-detect

Usage

<script type="module">
	import devtools from './node_modules/devtools-detect/index.js';

	// Check if it's open
	console.log('Is DevTools open:', devtools.isOpen);

	// Check it's orientation, `undefined` if not open
	console.log('DevTools orientation:', devtools.orientation);

	// Get notified when it's opened/closed or orientation changes
	window.addEventListener('devtoolschange', event => {
		console.log('Is DevTools open:', event.detail.isOpen);
		console.log('DevTools orientation:', event.detail.orientation);
	});
</script>
