In this field, specify the path to the main file of the application that starts it (for example, bin/www for Express applications). By default, the field shows the project root folder. In this field, specify the working directory of the application.

Otherwise, by default the debug process will use V8 Debugging Protocol.įor a full list, see Node.js command-line options. Use -inspect or -inspect-brk parameter when you are using Node.js v7 for Chrome Debugging Protocol support. Therefore make sure you have the coffeescript package installed locally as described in Install the CoffeeScript compiler.

This mode requires that the register.js file, which is a part of the coffeescript package, is located inside your project. Use -require coffeescript/register to have CoffeeScript files compiled into JavaScript on the fly during run. In this field, type the Node.js-specific command-line options to be passed to the Node.js executable file. Select an interpreter from the list or click and configure a new one in the dialog that opens. This can be a local or remote Node.js interpreter or a Node.js on Windows Subsystem for Linux. In this field, specify the Node.js interpreter to use. Consequently, changing package.json in the project results in re-building the image. JetBrains Rider copies package.json to the /tmp/project_modules folder in the image, runs npm install, and then copies the modules to the project folder in the container. The Node.js Remote Interpreter plugin is not bundled with JetBrains Rider, but it can be installed on the Settings/Preferences | Plugins page, tab Marketplace, as described in Installing plugins from JetBrains repository. To use a Node.js on WSL by default in all run/debug configurations in this project, choose it as the default project node interpreter.Ĭonfiguring remote Node.js interpreters is available only when the Node.js Remote Interpreter plugin is installed and enabled.


Install the Node.js plugin on the Settings/Preferences | Plugins page, tab Marketplace, as described in Installing plugins from JetBrains repository. In this dialog, create configurations for starting the debugger together with your Node.js applications on your computer. Learn more from Supported Node.js versions. The following Node.js versions are supported in JetBrains Rider 2020.3 and later: The dialog is available only when the Node.js bundled plugin is enabled on the Settings/Preferences | Plugins page as described in Managing plugins. Please do not confuse run/debug configurations with build configurations.
