apollo-client-devtools: Apollo Dev Tools don't refresh data

I’m not able to see whats in my cache via apollo dev tools. I can refresh the frame (which only exists on Chrome, not firefox), but about half the time it can’t find the cache.

I can see the cache if I run __APOLLO_CLIENT__.cache.data.data in the console, so the data is there.

It’s almost like the dev tools aren’t aware of changes to cache most of the time. For some reason, sometimes changing the page will cause it to update.

Here is a video detailing the problem, hopefully it’s helpful. Any tips on a workaround for now?

I went ahead with publishing 2.3.2 in Chrome and Firefox 👍

Hi @wesbos! So, as you’ve seen, we’re working on an overhaul of the existing devtools. We’re not ready for beta testing yet but we’d love your feedback when we are!

Re: “It’s almost like the dev tools aren’t aware of changes to cache most of the time” - we’re working to make 3.0 more reliable. We won’t be working on fixing issues in 2.x so we can focus on getting 3.0 out the door.
