WebKitWebInspector

Access to the WebKit inspector.

The WebKit Inspector is a graphical tool to inspect and change the content of a #WebKitWebView. It also includes an interactive JavaScript debugger. Using this class one can get a #GtkWidget which can be embedded into an application to show the inspector.

The inspector is available when the #WebKitSettings of the #WebKitWebView has set the #WebKitSettings:enable-developer-extras to true, otherwise no inspector is available.

// Enable the developer extras
WebKitSettings *settings = webkit_web_view_get_settings (WEBKIT_WEB_VIEW(my_webview));
g_object_set (G_OBJECT(settings), "enable-developer-extras", TRUE, NULL);

// Load some data or reload to be able to inspect the page
webkit_web_view_load_uri (WEBKIT_WEB_VIEW(my_webview), "http://www.gnome.org");

// Show the inspector
WebKitWebInspector *inspector = webkit_web_view_get_inspector (WEBKIT_WEB_VIEW(my_webview));
webkit_web_inspector_show (WEBKIT_WEB_INSPECTOR(inspector));
