Remote debugging without extra launch settings locally #142
Conversation
|
Having difficulty to debug files on Remote Server. VSCODE doesn't work untill I provide local files. Can someone help on this.? |
|
As far as I know, the node debugger allows connecting to a remote process, and pathMapping to "local" files using the |
| root = root.replace(/^~/, home.replace(/\/$/, '')); | ||
| } | ||
|
|
||
| vscode.debug.registerDebugConfigurationProvider("*", { |

I'm not sure we're supposed to use these register methods dynamically, especially without ever unsubscribing them

This seems a bit unsafe and a bad practice. A regular (dynamic) string replacement would work here.
I'm also not sure about if vscode will replace things like ${workspaceFolder} before/after this step.

| const file = session.configuration['program']; | ||
| const command = eval('`' + config.debugPreLaunch + '`'); // resolve ${file} and config. |

This should also use the Logging facility instead of directly logging to the console.
This whole registerDebugAdapterTrackerFactory could be merged with the one on line 151.

A bit of a long description which doesn't specify that the command will be run locally

Unfortunately you are not right, if you write in #77 that existing debug features can be used. A lot of variables #https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/variables-reference not resolved, e.g. '${file}'. The 'pathMappings' in launch.json to set breakpoints has to be defined specifically for the extension!
From a practical point of view, with your great extenstion remote working is like local working. But to launch means to distinguish. So i have to manage a launch, for every SSH-FS configuration, that define host and root, where actually only a debugport as new information is added. The worst thing is that I have to manage a little extra locally!
I add two config properties, patch SSH-launch's to attach and define pathmapping from SSH-FS root setting. You can work with a local launch, too. But there is no need.
