No features are working after activating a license

[tonomb]

Description
I downloaded The Radon IDE extension a few weeks ago and the simulator seems to be working perfectly but none of the features beside the Simulator were enabled.

I purchased and activated a license thinking the feature needed a active license to work. After activating the license the features are still not enabled

Features that don't work:

• Element Inspector
• Debug and Logging
• Router Integration
• Screen Recording
• Previews

Environment

• Radon v1.2.0
• React Native "0.73.6"
• Expo: "50.0.14"
• Cursor: v0.44.11

Hello, thank you so much for reporting the issue! If you don't mind, I have a few fallow up questions:

1. do you start you application in terminal? It should not be necessary - radon starts its metro server
2. could you provide us with the radon IDE logs?
3. could you record the app boot process?

Hey @filip131311

1. Yes, that is the way I was starting the application. I run Yarn Start in the terminal and then open the extension.

2. If I only open the Extension it gets stuck looking for the development servers.

Here are the logs Radon_IDE.log

Radon IDE relies on the React Native application connecting with the Metro server started by the extension -- that's why the extension features don't work for you when you connect that way. It's something that we plan to change in the future, but for now, you have to use the Metro session started by Radon IDE.

If I only open the Extension it gets stuck looking for the development servers.

looking at the logs, I can see a lot of messages which look like:

2025-02-13 13:59:47.482 [error] Error: Command failed: gcloud config get-value project --format=json
/bin/sh: gcloud: command not found

My guess is that the Metro server started by Radon fails to launch the gcloud binary, which is used by one of the Metro/Expo plugins in your project.
We've had issues with the PATH variable not being set up correctly in the past, and it might be the root cause here as well. We hope these will be fixed in the next release. In the meantime, you could try adding the gcloud binary path to your PATH env variable in your .zshrc file (or similar if you use a different shell) to see if it resolves the issue -- though I understand that's not something you should have to do. Would love to hear back from you if it helps, or if the actual problem lies elsewhere.

Sorry for the inconvenience @tonomb 🙏
