# minidump-debugger
[](https://crates.io/crates/minidump-debugger) 
An experimental GUI for [rust-minidump](https://github.com/rust-minidump/rust-minidump) based on [egui](https://www.egui.rs/).
**NOTE**: if building from source on linux, you may need to install [the packages egui depends on](https://github.com/emilk/egui#demo).
# Functionality
At this point the UI is mostly at parity with [minidump-stackwalk](https://github.com/rust-minidump/rust-minidump/tree/main/minidump-stackwalk)
* raw minidump inspection (for debugging weird minidumps)
* stackwalking (via cfi, frame pointers, and scanning)
* symbolication (via symbol server, either using native binaries or breakpad .sym)
* processing the minidump's metadata
* trace logs for debugging the stackwalk
# Future Functionality?
* [x] (on interactive branch) more responsive live results
* [x] (on interactive branch) log searching/sorting/filtering based on tracing spans ("give me all the info on this thread")
* [ ] builtin hexdump viewing (we currently get some from the raw minidump printing, but it's very slow because it doesn't know where we're looking)
* [ ] surface more random pieces of information (crash time, endianess, ...)
* [x] (on interactive branch) `Linux*` stream raw inspection (they have a weird format)
* [ ] surface recovered arguments (currently only computed in the x86 backend, kinda jank)
* [ ] steal some [socc-pair](https://github.com/Gankra/socc-pair/) features? (benching, fetching dumps, mocking symbol server, diffing)
* [ ] allow the dump to be pointed at a build dir to compute local symbols?
# Future Cleanups?
* [ ] properly expand table row-heights for line-wrapping items
* [ ] better pointer-sized-value formatting (pad 64-bit to 16 chars)
* [ ] make more text selectable (bare labels suck for most of what we display)
* [ ] don't make the `symbol cache` checkbox so terribly dangerous (will blindly delete the dir at that path, should just disable the cache)
