Welcome to DevTools - created and maintained by Sascha Wildgrube.
Code library and tools for ServiceNow developers
DevTools contains a number of script includes with useful javascript functions and classes like a GetType() function that really works. A few UI improvements like the Re-Test button in the test result form and shortcuts to various - sometimes hidden - views and system properties in your instance.
DevTools is NOT an officially supported ServiceNow product.
DevTools does NOT come with any kind of warranty. If you use it, you own it!
Some features contained on DevTools and the techniques being used might be considered as a violation of security policies. Please make sure any use is based on conscious choice and careful assessment. This specifically applies to the functions RunScriptInScope() and RunScriptInGlobalScope() - which are used in many DevTools functions internally. These features are enabled by setting the system property glide.record.legacy_cross_scope_access_policy_in_script to "true".
x_snc_devtools.InstallApp("x_snc_devtools");var testdata = new x_snc_devtools.TestDataAPI('_ATF_DEVTOOLS_');
gs.info('Before DeleteAllData(): '+x_snc_devtools.RenderValue(testdata.GetAllData()));
testdata.DeleteAllData(testdata.GetAllData());
gs.info('After DeleteAllData(): '+x_snc_devtools.RenderValue(testdata.GetAllData()));DevTools contains a wide variety of functions and classes (server-side and client-side) for re-use. Please refer to the reference section for details.
DevTools contains a number of very helpful UI Actions. One of the most powerful features is the "Save" button with active scope switching capabilities. Never ever loose changes because of switching between scopes and browser tabs at the same time.
The function RunScriptInScope allows to execute code in any scope no matter what the current execution scope is. The function RunScriptInGlobalScope specifically allows code execution in the global scope from any other other scope. This allows the use of API functions and classes which are only available in the global scope and NOT in scoped scripts. This allows more flexibility when developing scoped apps - and effectively removes any barriers between apps. The authors of DevTools believe that this is a good thing. Application scopes are NOT a security boundary. Scoped APIs have just not been implemented completely - so using these techniques serves as a workaround for incomplete scoped API implementation. It also allows scoped apps to interact with each other which would otherwise be impossible. We also believe that deployments via update sets are a method of the past. Features should always be deployed as part of scoped (or global scoped) applications via source control or AppRepo. This however requires such apps to perform installation steps - like manipulations of OOTB records - which would not be possible from within their own scope. Hence cross-scope scripting techniques finally enable fully automated deployment pipelines without the need of any manual interventions.
In an ideal world all customizations are implemented in scoped apps (and some global scoped apps if there are really good reasons). And in that same ideal world, non of these apps have any dependencies. Each app can be installed and uninstalled independently. The real corporate world, however, is complex, messy and full of dependencies. For good reasons, separate capablities are implemented as separate apps and hence these apps have dependencies to each other. For example: apps add fields to tables that are defined in other apps, they run scripts from other apps, or rely on logic implemented in flows from other apps.
Such dependencies must be managed - that means, the requirements of one app towards other apps and their minimum versions, must be documented and considered when performing deployments.
DevTools provides means for that documentaton and visualization of these dependencies. Go to the sys_app form, switch to the DevTools view to find the dependencies related list (not the OOTB dependencies). The UI action "Dependencies" opens a ui page that visualizes the dependency requirements and status of the current app as a tree and as a list, which can be used as a deployment plan.
A Technical Dept is any code or structure that a development team considers as to-be changed at a later point in time because it implies some form of burden to the development and deployment work to be done today.
Technical Depts need to be managed - and that starts with documenting it. DevTools contains a table to store Technical Dept records which are part of an application and hence are deployed to target-systems. This allows for reporting, work planning and automated documentation.
Unfinished, defective or deprecated features that are part of an application at the time of a version baseline also represent a form of Technical Dept - as all of these require future work. Such features should eventually be hidden from users or prevented to impact the behavior of an application. To control that each Technical Dept record has a boolean "switch" that can be used to control logic around these features. Developers can use the following pattern to control how code related to a feature that is currently considered as (or associated with) a Technical Dept should behave:
if (x_snc_devtools.GetTechnicalDeptSwitchState('x_your_scope','id_of_the_technical_dept') == true)
{
// Hide unfinished work
// Deactivate defective features
// Deactivate deprecated features
}If the Technical Dept with the given id exists and the switch is set to true, the function returns true, otherwise false.
DevTools allows you to deactivate specific Service Portals.
A new field "Active" is added to the sp_portal table. Once set to false, the corresponding Service Portal will just disappear and is no longer accessible.
DevTools contains the business rule sys_flow_context - Set domain which implements the workaround to the issue described in KB0998966.
Instance Scan linter checks execute on all records that have at least one script field. However, some records may have a script field but do not use it or the script field does not have to be checked because it is not relevant (based on the configuration of that record).
Examples are:
The business rule sys_metadata - Prevent useless checks prevents checks from running in such cases which may significantly reduce the time required to scan such records - or apps that contain such records.
DevTools can help to format (float) numbers in forms, related lists and list views in the classic UI - Polaris, however, is not supported yet! Follow these steps to activate the feature:
function DevToolsGetFormatConfig(grRecord)
{
var strTable = grRecord.getRecordClassName();
if (strTable == 'your_table')
{
var formatconfig = {
your_field: {
decimals: 2,
postfix: ' %'
}
};
return formatconfig;
}
return false;

Copies the repository url from the sys_repo_config record associated to an app to the app record itself. This is to keep the information about an app's repo in the repo itself. By that it can be used in documentation and logic that looks into a source control directly.
If the system property "x_snc_devtools.ui.force_scope" is set to true, the current scope is set to the scope of the application when loading its form. This is to avoid the annoying message about being in the wrong scope.
Synchronizes the data in the dependency record with the corresponding app before displaying the application form.
Ensures that the record that marks an ATF test's association to a suite has the same scope as the ATF suite.
Implements the workaround to the issue described in KB0998966.
Prevents unnecessary Instance Scan checks from running. This reduces scan time significantly.
If the system property "x_snc_devtools.ui.force_scope" is set to true, the current scope is set to the scope of the record when loading a form. This is to avoid the annoying message about being in the wrong scope.
If the sys_scope is not global and the sys_package differs from the sys_scope value, sys_package synchronized with the sys_scope value. This situation is caused by moving a global scope record into a global scoped application. If sys_scope and sys_package differ, the record may not be scanned by Instance Scan.
If the table of a Client Script is not set, set the table to "global". This is prevented by the OOTB GUI.
If the UI Action's table is not set, it is set to "global" - to make the UI Action accessible on all table forms or lists. Setting the table to "global" is prevented by the GUI OOTB.
Synchronizes data from an app or package into the corresponding Dependency record if possible.
