I'm trying to remote debug my nodejs application (which is actually running on a docker container in my local machine but for all purposes is treated as a remote host)
I've ran the app with nodemon using the following command in my docker-compose file
nodemon --debug=3010 app.js
Then opened the port for the container and used port-forwarding for the port to be available in localhost:3010.
Later I've setup the following configuration in intellij remote debugger plugin:
host: localhost
port: 3010
Now, when running the code in the container, the code doesn't stop on my breakpoint. I'm pretty sure I should launch the configuration I've set up for remote debugging, but don't really see how.
I've also tried setting the host parameter of the remote debugging plugin to the docker-machine ip, but this also gave no result.
What should I do to make intellij stop when the code reaches my breakpoint?
