rbcodecraft / vscode-ts-node-debugging Goto Github PK

Using the latest version of this repo, when I try to debug a test using the "Current TS Tests File" configuration, it doesn't hit breakpoints set in typescript.

VSCode info
Version 1.22.0-insider

i installed tried to debug and
Attribute 'program' does not exist ('/home/xxx/test/vscode-ts-node-debugging/node_modules/mocha/bin/_mocha').

i wonder how i could make it work with a dockerfile like this

FROM node:9-alpine

ARG APP=/http

WORKDIR ${APP}

COPY . ${APP}/

RUN npm install

RUN npm i -g typescript ts-node [email protected]

EXPOSE 3000

RUN npm run debug

I am on Node 8.4 and VSCode 1.16 as stated in the README. When I try to open person.tests.ts and invoke the 'Current TS Tests File' debug configuration, I get this error:

Cannot launch program 'c:\Temp\vscode-ts-node-debugging\node_modules.bin_mocha'; setting the 'outDir or outFiles' attribute might help.

I noticed that there's a backslash missing in the .bin_mocha part (should be .bin\_mocha) so maybe it's a Windows-only issue?

Debugging doesn't work.
I get this when trying to debug: «Configured debug type 'node' is not supported.»

Or other test runners in general? I'll look into myself, but it'd be great if you had an easy answer. Thanks!

I modify my launch.json like this:

{
  "version": "0.2.0",
  "configurations": [
    {
      "name": "Current TS File",
      "type": "node",
      "request": "launch",
      "args": [
        "--nolazy",
        "-r",
        "ts-node/register",
        "${relativeFile}"
      ],
      "sourceMaps": true,
      "cwd": "${workspaceFolder}"
    }
  ]
}

It also works fine.
so, what's the difference between args and runtimeArgs?
I read official doc about debugging in vscode, did not find rumtimeArgs and protocol attributes.
https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/debugging#_launch-configurations

• VS Code Version: 1.12.2
• OS Version: Windows 8.1 x64
• Node.js Version: 7.10.0

Cloned the repo, installed the packages, launched Current TS File configuration -> Breakpoints are not hit when a file is open, neither when it's not currently open.

can't get this example working. I spent 6 hours on this.

When I start debugging in workspace - current test file - person.tests.ts, I get error message - Attribute 'program' does not exist '...../bin/_mocha
