… We know there were behavioral differences in V3 between the debugger and the actual platforms; I ran into that when working on my audio player, for example. I don’t know whether v4 has addressed those, but if it hasn’t…
… I’m wondering how much behavior is actually implemented in the debugger, and whether it might make sense to implement debugging as a client for the “real” application once it has been fired up as a server or lambda or whatever, using the platform’s own text-based debugging input plus some Jovo hooks (and possibly some proxying) to allow monitoring the interaction’s messages.
If nothing else,this might be a convenient way to get a dump of actual JSON traffic during operation without having to manually patch in temporary logging.
(With due consideration of not opening security holes, of course.)
It’s half a thought, and half an hour from now I may be proven to be a half-wit, but I figured I’d toss it out in case there’s a kernel of something useful there.
