slappforge-debug-client v2.2.1
SLAppForge Debugger for NodeJS - Local Client
SLAppForge Debugger for NodeJS is a toolkit that can be utilized to perform step-through debugging for the Lambda functions executing on live AWS environment, using your own local IDE.
This is the NPM package that contains the Local Client component of the toolkit. This should be installed as a global package in the developer machine. Once invoked with the required parameters, it acts as the intermediary that exchanges V8 protocol messages between the IDE debugger and the remote broker server.
npm i slappforge-debug-client -gPrerequisites
As a prerequisite for using this toolkit, you should obtain an access key pair from the SLAppForge Access Key Manager. For that, please visit https://www.slappforge.com/java-debug and login with your SLAppForge Sigma account. If you don't have a Sigma account you can create one for free from here.
