Node Debugger

Debug Node in Chrome devtools

Connect to v8 inspector debugging instances! This extension allows you to save configured debugging sessions and will automatically check them for availability on startup.

To quickly get started you can do the following:

  • Start a node 6.3+ process with the --inspect flag set (this will start a debugging session at localhost:9229)
  • Click on the extension icon in Chrome and see that the Default session is available.
  • Click on the Default session and a new Chrome window will load with the devtools connected to node.
  • Carry on making great apps!

Roadmap ahead:

  • Attempt to detect when the debugger goes offline (this happens frequently in development with Nodemon) and attempt to reconnect automatically

Extension safety

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Node Debugger requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Chrome extension may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Chrome extension reputation on Chrome Web Store, the amount of time the Chrome extension has been around, and other signals about the Chrome extension. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Chrome extension.

Node Debugger may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
