Newbie question, does Dirac contain a version of the devtools for node that Chrome now ships with?

@richiardiandrea hi, I'm sorry, but I'm not very familiar with devtools support for node, at some point I wrote this[1], but I don't actively test if it works or changed [1] https://github.com/binaryage/dirac/blob/master/docs/node.md

darwin20:10:26

to answer your question, Dirac is a fork of devtools which are from bleeding edge chrome repo (usually Chrome Canary contains it in a few days/weeks)

darwin20:10:57

you can see exact commit ranges in Dirac release notes

@darwin ok thank you, I need basically to know if this is something that Dirac still can communicate with: https://nodejs.org/dist/latest-v8.x/docs/api/debugger.html#debugger_advanced_usage

darwin20:10:34

this should work, but you have to test it, I'm not aware of anyone using it

darwin20:10:53

there used to be a problem with node.js discovery page: https://github.com/binaryage/dirac/issues/65

darwin20:10:07

but that is not needed in that command-line workflow I believe
