needs changing in https://github.com/nodejs/node/blob/master/doc/node.1, too

nojvek · 2017-03-02T22:53:38Z

is node.1 for man pages?

sam-github · 2017-03-02T23:45:13Z

Yes.

nojvek · 2017-03-03T18:03:06Z

Fixed.

+V8 Inspector integration allows attaching Chrome DevTools and IDEs to Node.js
+instances for debugging and profiling. It uses the [Chrome Debugging Protocol][].


Do reference-style links work if they are linked in another file?

[Chrome Debugging Protocol]: https://chromedevtools.github.io/debugger-protocol-viewer/ is defined in debugger.md.

small, nit... this could be reworded as:

nojvek · 2017-03-09T14:04:37Z

That's how the inspector debugger.md documentation was done so I copied from there. I should point it to the correct link though. How do I build the documentation. Website to test this out?

make doc generates the docs, I think the html files end up in out/doc/api/. Do you want to check if we need to define

Sorry if I wasn't clear. debugger.md uses and defines a link to the debugging protocol. If we're using a reference-style link, we need to define it in the file where we use it. We can just copy this definition to the end of cli.md.

Could you also fix-up your commit messages according to this guide please.

nojvek · 2017-03-09T23:15:47Z

Perfect. I will make it happen

@cjihrig Thanks for the version number verification. I wasn't quite 100% sure how to do that.

I have updated the PR with your changes. Looks great, the links work. Would love to see this merged.

nojvek · 2017-03-14T17:02:30Z

Thanks Colin. I'm wondering who has to finally make a decision to make the merge? I first created a another PR regarding this almost an year ago. It'd make me dysphoric if it turned into another zombie PR.

@nojvek any committer can land the PR. It should be good after @jasnell's nit is addressed. @fhinkel are you ok with it?

nojvek · 2017-03-14T17:51:22Z

@jasnell that actually seems confusing. It seems like Node.js is attaching to devtools but its other way around. How about this? ``` V8 inspector integration allows tools such as Chrome DevTools and IDEs to debug and profile Node.js instances. The tools attach to Node.js instances on a tcp debug port and communicate using the [Chrome Debugging Protocol][] ```
