# Troubleshooting

## Logging

### Client-Side

You might want to know the order in which your Reflexes are called, how long it took to process each Reflex or what the Reflex response payload contains. Luckily you can enable Reflex logging to your browser's Console Inspector.

There are two ways to enable client debugging in your StimulusReflex instance.

You can provide `debug: true` to the initialize options like this:

{% code title="app/javascript/controllers/index.js" %}

```javascript
StimulusReflex.initialize(application, { consumer, debug: true })
```

{% endcode %}

You can also set debug mode after you've initialized StimulusReflex. This is especially useful if you just want to log the Reflex calls in your development environment:

{% code title="app/javascript/controllers/index.js" %}

```javascript
StimulusReflex.initialize(application, { consumer })
if (process.env.ENVIRONMENT === 'development') StimulusReflex.debug = true
```

{% endcode %}

### Server-Side

To get debug logging for Sockpuppet you need to make some modifications to `LOGGING` in `settings.py`. Below you can see an example logging configuration that enables debug-level logging Sockpuppet.

```python
LOGGING = {
    'version': 1,
    'disable_existing_loggers': False,
    'root': {
        'handlers': ['console'],
        'level': 'DEBUG'
    },
    'handlers': {
        'sockpuppet': {
            'level': 'DEBUG',
            'class': 'logging.StreamHandler',
            'formatter': 'simple'
        }
    },
    'formatters': {
        'simple': {
            'format': '%(levelname)s %(message)s'
        },
    },
    'loggers': {
        'sockpuppet': {
            'level': 'DEBUG',
            'handlers': ['sockpuppet']
        }
    }
}
```

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://sockpuppet.argpar.se/troubleshooting.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
