Sails inspect

This command should only be used with modern versions of Node. For Node v5 and below, use sails debug.

Attach the Node debugger and lift the Sails app (similar to running node --inspect app.js). You can then use a tool like Chrome DevTools to interactively debug your apps (see the Node Inspector docs for more information).

sails inspect

Usage

Takes the same options as sails lift, listed here.

Example

$ sails inspect

info: Running app in inspect mode...
info: In Google Chrome, go to chrome://inspect for interactive debugging.
info: For other options, see the link below.
info: ( to exit, type <CTRL>+<C> )

Debugger listening on ws://127.0.0.1:9229/7f984b04-b070-4497-bd15-056261a37f7c
For help see https://nodejs.org/en/docs/inspector

To use the standard (command-line) Node debugger with Sails, you can always just run node inspect app.js.

If you don't see your files in the Chrome DevTools, try clicking the "Filesystem" tab and adding your project folder to the workspace.
