Node Webkit Devtools Agent Front-End

Your WebKit devtools front-end for Node WebKit Agent.

Instead of connecting your Node debugging session to a gh-pages site, you can easily self-host the front-end code for connecting to your WebKit devtools agent.

Installation

node install -g webkit-devtools-agent-frontend

In the application you want to profile, install and run Node WebKit Agent.

Connecting to the agent

  1. Activate the agent in your application by sending a SIGUSR2 signal to its process id. To de-activate, send the signal once again. Example: kill -SIGUSR2 <the process id of your app>

  2. Start the agent front-end by running webkit-devtools-agent-frontend. You should see the message: "WebKit devtools agent front-end listening on http://localhost:9090". Using your browser, go to that URL, and profile away.

Configuration

You can change the port on which the agent front-end listens using the NODE_WEBKIT_DEVTOOLS_PORT environment variable, e.g., NODE_WEBKIT_DEVTOOLS_PORT=9099 node-webkit-agent-frontend to listen on port 9099.
