Is there a way to get current stack-frames or call-stack at a certain point ?

[abdelhamid-f-nasser]

I'm trying to get the current point of the call-stack to help with debugging and performance. What I am trying to do might be similar to how the debugger allows us to pause the JS Thread and check the current call stack.

Note: Please pardon me if this is not the proper place to ask, I'm not sure which repo I should drop this question.

You can construct an error object and inspect its stack property.

function foo() {
  var stack_str = new Error().stack;
  print(stack_str);
}

foo();

This prints the following:

Error
    at foo (file.js:2:28)
    at global (file.js:6:4)

Thank you for your prompt response, @fbmal7 🙏 ! Is there any I can use the above approach to mimic the developer tools, where it pauses or interrupt the execution and retrieves the current call stack ?
