Is there a way to test SS 2.x script calls from the browser console?

This is one of my favorite features of SS 1.0

The ‘debug’ feature of NetSuite is fine, but it’s kinda cumbersome when you want to quickly test an idea.

I don’t think it’s officially supported but you can use this method:

Code:
require([‘N/record’,’N/search’],
function(record,search){
var s=search.create({ filters:[], columns:[], type:’inventoryitem’ });
s.run().each(function(result){ console.log(result); return true; });
var r=record.load({type:’inventoryitem’,id:15941});
console.log(r);
}
);

For ad-hoc debugging you can use the Chrome Developer Tools “Snippets” feature (note this needs to be run on a page with record in Edit mode):

For debugging existing scripts, you can insert a JavaScript “debugger” statement into the code to create a breakpoint,

Alternatively you can “require” the module in the browser console, inspect the resulting object and click “Show Function Definition” to open the source, and add the breakpoints there.

Thumbs up to all of you! Thank you so much! all of these tips are invaluable to a SS and JavaScript newbie like myself!

You may use snippets feature also in View mode for snippets which are not interacting with the current record like setting the values and the the change visible right away like the snippet that David showed above

chanarbon So the “snippets” will still work so long as I don’t want to “update” the values, correct?

Hi @CFong,

Yes. it should still be working with that kind of scenario.
