fiveo

https://youtu.be/q9c3ZXq75Kg

A tiny JavaScript library to add some sweetness to Node's core inspector module. Adds some key missing features:

• Adding the ability to start the inspector via the SIGNAL method using ANY PORT and not just 9229. Opens up the possible debug applications and workflows tremendously.
• STOPPING the inspector instance using the SIGUSR2 signal (will stop both sessions started with SIGUSR2 and the native SIGUSR1). It's likely that leavning the inspector listening (production environments...) is a bad idea.

Installation

$ npm install fiveo

Usage

fiveo simply needs to be required in your code.

Example:

require('fiveo');
// The rest of your code...

Environment Variables

When running through Node.js, you can set a few environment variables that will change the behavior of the debug logging:

| Name | Syntax | Purpose | Examples | |-----------|--------|-----------------------------------------|----------------| | INSPECT | [hostname:port] | Declares which host:port you want the inspector to listen on. | 9230 or localhost:9230

Note: The default value for INSPECT is localhost:9229.
