Use --inspect as per the message from node.

$ nodemon app.js -- --inspect

[Jokero]

should be nodemon -- --inspect app.js

[prameshbajra]

Neither nodemon -- --inspect app.js nor nodemon app.js -- --inspect worked for me. Any alternatives?

[Jokero]

Check node --inspect app.js directly. If it does not work, problem is not related to nodemon. If you run app inside docker container and want to have remote debugging, specify 0.0.0.0:9229 explicitly:

nodemon -- --inspect 0.0.0.0:9229 app.js

Last one works for me

[remy]

Damnit - latest nodemon isn't passing this argument. I'll raise a new issue as it's unrelated to this initial issue.

[Jokero]

Yes, I use not newest version. Then inspect-brk maybe also doesn't work

[remy]

Fixed and live in nodemon@1.12.7

[RooSoft]

Using 1.12.7, the --inspect switch is still not working....

[remy]

@RooSoft please file a new issue with full details and if possible a PR with resolution.

I am currently having this issue also, inspect is loading but its not stopping at the debugger; specified in one of my required files that my main app.js file reads from I have nodemon 1.13.1 on windows 10 with node v9.3.0

[remy]

@mstellaluna you've commented on a closed issue, but I've just tried the same thing and working…but you've not really included much information to replicate fully.

Here's windows 10 for me:

[mstellaluna]

@remy sorry I apologize I didn't notice it was closed as other were commenting as of recent.

Is it possible to attach a Vs Code debugger (i'm following https://blog.docker.com/2016/07/live-debugging-docker/) to :9229? Its failing to connect in my case.

[vitalii-svitla]

Found updated version here: https://github.com/docker/labs/blob/master/developer-tools/nodejs-debugging/VSCode-README.md
Seems to work for me.
