Overview of this book

A key technology for building web applications and tooling, Node.js brings JavaScript to the server enabling full-stack development in a common language. This fourth edition of the Node Cookbook is updated with the latest Node.js features and the evolution of the Node.js framework ecosystems. This practical guide will help you to get started with creating, debugging, and deploying your Node.js applications and cover solutions to common problems, along with tips to avoid pitfalls. You'll become familiar with the Node.js development model by learning how to handle files and build simple web applications and then explore established and emerging Node.js web frameworks such as Express.js and Fastify. As you advance, you'll discover techniques for detecting problems in your applications, handling security concerns, and deploying your applications to the cloud. This recipe-based guide will help you to easily navigate through various core topics of server-side web application development with Node.js. By the end of this Node book, you'll be well-versed with core Node.js concepts and have gained the knowledge to start building performant and scalable Node.js applications.

Chapter 12: Debugging Node.js

The asynchronous nature of JavaScript and Node.js makes the debugging process non-trivial. However, over the past decade, Node.js has matured as a technology, and the debugging capabilities and facilities have improved accordingly.

In this chapter, we will consider steps we can take to make our applications easier to debug. We'll also learn how to use modern tools to debug our Node.js applications. Later in the chapter, we'll learn about the diagnostic reports feature that is available in the latest versions of Node.js.

This chapter will cover the following:

  • Debugging with Chrome DevTools
  • Logging with Node.js
  • Enhancing stack trace output
  • Using diagnostic reports
