This is the first step to experimenting with a new type of stack traces
behind the `enableOwnerStacks` flag - in DEV only.
The idea is to generate stacks that are more like if the JSX was a
direct call even though it's actually a lazy call. Not only can you see
which exact JSX call line number generated the erroring component but if
that's inside an abstraction function, which function called that
function and if it's a component, which component generated that
component. For this to make sense it really need to be the "owner" stack
rather than the parent stack like we do for other component stacks. On
one hand it has more precise information but on the other hand it also
loses context. For most types of problems the owner stack is the most
useful though since it tells you which component rendered this
component.
The problem with the platform in its current state is that there's two
ways to deal with stacks:
1) `new Error().stack`
2) `console.createTask()`
The nice thing about `new Error().stack` is that we can extract the
frames and piece them together in whatever way we want. That is great
for constructing custom UIs like error dialogs. Unfortunately, we can't
take custom stacks and set them in the native UIs like Chrome DevTools.
The nice thing about `console.createTask()` is that the resulting stacks
are natively integrated into the Chrome DevTools in the console and the
breakpoint debugger. They also automatically follow source mapping and
ignoreLists. The downside is that there's no way to extract the async
stack outside the native UI itself so this information cannot be used
for custom UIs like errors dialogs. It also means we can't collect this
on the server and then pass it to the client for server components.
The solution here is that we use both techniques and collect both an
`Error` object and a `Task` object for every JSX call.
The main concern about this approach is the performance so that's the
main thing to test. It's certainly too slow for production but it might
also be too slow even for DEV.
This first PR doesn't actually use the stacks yet. It just collects them
as the first step. The next step is to start utilizing this information
in error printing etc.
For RSC we pass the stack along across over the wire. This can be
concatenated on the client following the owner path to create an owner
stack leading back into the server. We'll later use this information to
restore fake frames on the client for native integration. Since this
information quickly gets pretty heavy if we include all frames, we strip
out the top frame. We also strip out everything below the functions that
call into user space in the Flight runtime. To do this we need to figure
out the frames that represents calling out into user space. The
resulting stack is typically just the one frame inside the owner
component's JSX callsite. I also eagerly strip out things we expect to
be ignoreList:ed anyway - such as `node_modules` and Node.js internals.
In prod, the `_owner` field is only used for string refs so if we have
string refs disabled, we don't need this field. In fact, that's one of
the big benefits of deprecating them.
Along with all the places using it like the `_debugSource` on Fiber.
This still lets them be passed into `createElement` (and JSX dev
runtime) since those can still be used in existing already compiled code
and we don't want that to start spreading to DOM attributes.
We used to have a DEV mode that compiles the source location of JSX into
the compiled output. This was nice because we could get the actual call
site of the JSX (instead of just somewhere in the component). It had a
bunch of issues though:
- It only works with JSX.
- The way this source location is compiled is different in all the
pipelines along the way. It relies on this transform being first and the
source location we want to extract but it doesn't get preserved along
source maps and don't have a way to be connected to the source hosted by
the source maps. Ideally it should just use the mechanism other source
maps use.
- Since it's expensive it only works in DEV so if it's used for
component stacks it would vary between dev and prod.
- It only captures the callsite of the JSX and not the stack between the
component and that callsite. In the happy case it's in the component but
not always.
Instead, we have another zero-cost trick to extract the call site of
each component lazily only if it's needed. This ensures that component
stacks are the same in DEV and PROD. At the cost of worse line number
information.
The better way to get the JSX call site would be to get it from `new
Error()` or `console.createTask()` inside the JSX runtime which can
capture the whole stack in a consistent way with other source mappings.
We might explore that in the future.
This removes source location info from React DevTools and React Native
Inspector. The "jump to source code" feature or inspection can be made
lazy instead by invoking the lazy component stack frame generation. That
way it can be made to work in prod too. The filtering based on file path
is a bit trickier.
When redesigned this UI should ideally also account for more than one
stack frame.
With this change the DEV only Babel transforms are effectively
deprecated since they're not necessary for anything.
