DevToolKit
This repository contains a desktop application with many useful tools for software developers. It is written in Go using Wails for providing a multi-platform GUI.
Usage
Tools
All the tools are organized in tabs. You can click on your button of choice or press Ctrl+f to search for a tool.
Among others, the following tools are included:
- Base64 encoding
- Hex editor
- HTTP client
- JSON and XML pretty printing
- JWT decoding
- Port scanner
Customization
You can add a custom tab to the DevToolKit. Create a new file called pages.xml in the same directory as the executable.
Here is an example for a simple HTML page with just a single link:
<pages>
<page>
<name>MyTool</name>
<title>My cool tool</title>
<tooltip>This is my cool new tool.</tooltip>
<icon>fa-tools</icon>
<body>
<a href="http://www.qaware.de">QAware</a>
</body>
</page>
</pages>
Here, <name> must be a unique name, <title> is the button label, <tooltip> is the text for the button tooltip,
<icon> is the Font Awesome icon,
and <body> is the HTML source of the page.
Errors
In case of a crash, a stack trace is written to the file panic.txt in the same directory as the executable. If you raise a bug report, please attach the content of this file.
Development
Install Wails
See https://wails.app/gettingstarted/ to learn how to setup Wails on your platform.
Build locally
Checkout the code and run make build-debug to quickly build a development version with debug logging enabled. The artifact will appear in build/.
Release
Change the version number in the file main.go and create a tag consisting of a v as prefix and the same version number.
Push the tag to the repository and thus trigger the GitHub actions that will automatically create a new release.
After that, the installed DevToolKits from all the users will update to that new version.
