I have a windows box and a VM running CentOS. Does anyone happen to know how I can debug a node CLI script (which doesn’t open a port) using PHPStorm? The “edit configuration” seems to only support connecting somewhere instead of listening for incoming connections.
Make sure you have the nodejs plugin installed.
If your server has the balancer package available (my EC2 box didn’t), you can use this tutorial to forward the port with balancer.
Many report success with an iptables redirect from eth0 to lo (didn’t work for me) like this:
There is also a simple node script described in this eclipse debugging tut (near the bottom), that will tunnel your local debug to a remote host.
But once I was that far down the path, I didn’t see the point as I’m familiar with SSH. So ultimately, I went with an SSH tunnel and set up PHPStorm to debug localhost.
