Is there any plan to provide runtime debugging support for server-side JavaScript? Most of the XQuery API has been ported to JavaScript, but the "dbg" module, which gives you an entry point into query execution, has not. As MarkLogic 8 embeds the Google JavaScript engine, does this provide debugging hooks, which will allow third-party developers to write interactive debuggers?

Debugging, along with profiling and better logging, are on our roadmap. We’re looking at leveraging the debugger in the Chrome Developer Tools. Are there other IDEs or environments you’re using that we should be looking at as well? Feedback is much appreciated.

(As my profile indicates, I’m a Product Manager at MarkLogic.)

  • Thanks Justin, that's good news. We're using [Oxygen](http://oxygenxml.com/xml_developer.html) for our MarkLogic development, so that would be top of our wish list. – StuartN May 01 '15 at 13:37
  • Debugging in Chrome Developer Tools would be cool. I use a jetbrains IDE. It would be cool having a node js marklogic plugin that knows about the MarkLogic functions. – Jordan Stewart Sep 03 '16 at 04:57
  • It's still a high priority, but I don’t have a timetable for you. – Justin Makeig Dec 09 '16 at 22:11
