How do I view events fired on an element in Chrome DevTools?
You can use monitorEvents function.
Just inspect your element (
right mouse click
→ Inspect
on visible element or go to Elements
tab in Chrome Developer Tools and select wanted element) then go to Console
tab and write:monitorEvents($0)
Now when you move mouse over this element, focus or click it, the name of the fired event will be displayed with its data.
To stop getting this data just write this to console:
unmonitorEvents($0)
$0
is just the last DOM element selected by Chrome Developer Tools. You can pass any other DOM object there (for example result of getElementById
or querySelector
).
You can also specify event "type" as second parameter to narrow monitored events to some predefined set. For example:
monitorEvents(document.body, 'mouse')
List of this available types is here.
I made a small gif that illustrates how this feature works:
