Because of that we don't have a index.html file maybe because we only have a script to do smth on the server, we need to debug the NodeJS script, set breakpoints, watch variables, the same debugging things for HTML5 project. Is this possible?

Regards

Chris

There is support in NodeJS for debugging; there is an extensible API for debugger integration in NetBeans. However there is no integration of those two things at present. It certainly could be done.

At the moment, I need to be focused on paying gigs, so I'm not likely to do that - it's not the sort of thing you can implement in a day or two. I'd welcome a contribution of debugging support, or if someone wanted to fund it (or crowdsource funding of it?), I'd be happy to do it.

Thx for the feedback, I understand it and maybe you can see this ticket: https://github.com/timboudreau/nb-nodejs/issues/24 (create team). Maybe you/we can contact them to help you as contributors and to merge those projeects together, if they have similar functions and so on.
