Ts-node-dev: Debug with webstorm or vscode

[quantuminformation]

Are there any guides on how to Debug your ts files with webstorm or vscode using ts-node-dev?

I tried:

[wclr]

please, read some issues about vscode debugger

[jazib-m]

Man I'm having the same issue with VS code, can anyone please provide their launch.json

[Pitros]

@jazib-m launch ts-node-dev with --inspect and then just attach to running instance:

 {
            "type": "node",
            "request": "attach",
            "name": "Attach",
            "port": 9229,
            "restart": true
 }

for anyone struggling to get webstorm to attach to either process. Here's the trick

node parameters => --inspect=9229
javascript file => node_modulests-node-dev\bints-node-dev
Application Parameters => --project tsconfigNode.json --inspect=9001 -- app.ts

@ludetc while your instructions worked for me when I first ran it, as soon as I do a change, the process restarts but the debugger doesn't reconnect. Any advices there?

@Tinadim I'm having the same issue, did you ever find a resolution for this?
