Devil (pre-compiled for Windows x64)

This is a pre-compiled version of the Devil (GitHub) package. If you have Visual Studio 2010 Pro, please consider the normal package, rather than this one.

This version works only on 64bit system, only on Windows and only with NodeJS 0.10.x. We will publish more pre-compiled versions if there is interest.

Please don't install this one, if you have the regular version and vice versa.

Installation

npm install -g devil-windows

Usage

Simply use the command:

devil

Or, in case you have a local install:

node /path/to/devil

• You don't have to start your application separately. Just start Devil and run your script from it.
• After Devil starts, you have to select a file from your computer (or the server in case of remote debugging) and hit the run button.

It will start a server and a client and you can start doing your job. If you want more advanced usage, try --help for more info. The port and host of the server are configurable. You can also start the program as a server or client only if you want remote debugging.

Just try it out

We have added a test application, just to try out Devil. After starting Devil, just enter ../../testapp or /path/to/devil/testapp and run it. It has some basic functionality for testing.

Remote debugging

You can use Devil to debug an application running remotely. You have to install the module both on the "server" machine (the computer that runs your node.js app, that you want to debug) and the "client" (usually your computer). Start the server with:

devil -s -h 0.0.0.0

This will start Devil without the client, listening on any IP. Then, run the client from your computer with:

devil -c -h [IP]

Where [IP] is the server's IP.
