SVT: Eclipse: NodeJS Debugging popup Open Browser Button #3114

Open naveenkaratekid opened 4 years ago

naveenkaratekid commented 4 years ago

Codewind version:0.13 OS: Windows 10

IDE extension version:0.13 IDE version: Eclipse 2019-06

Description: When I debug certain NodeJS projects Appsody lp4 nodejs-sc nodejs nodejs-kfka Standard nodejs-express

I am seeing this popup: nodejs-inspector url

When I click Open Browser, it takes me to codewind.dev image

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Create a remote connection in Eclipse
  2. Create an Appsody NodeJS project
  3. Run the project in debug mode
  4. You'll see this popup image
  5. Click the OK button, and then click Open Browser

The button for opening the browser seems misleading because I would assume that clicking that button would open the application debugger in the browser directly.

Workaround:

This may be more of an enhancement idea. Naveen and I felt it was cumbersome to have an action for opening the browser, but then having to manually copy the correct URL. Is this a technical limitation?

The browser does not accept the devtools path to be passed in programatically. That is why the Copy URL to Clipboard button is there.
