Debugging Perl Mojolicious application

sduggal has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi Monks!

I have a Perl Mojolicious framework application/web app on Windows. It is using the development server for now. Does anyone have experience on debugging in such an environment using an IDE? I want to use breakpoints and step through the code. Please guide me on the IDE in case anyone has been in the same boat.

Never done it, but why don't you start the Mojo server from within your IDE while setting manual break points inside your application? `$DB:Single = 1` (IIRC) FWIW the classical approach for remote debugging is to configure a third party server to start Perl applications with -d and a specific communication port. The IDE/debug tool has to be set up to communicate over this port. Cheers Rolf _{(addicted to the Perl Programming Language and ☆☆☆☆ :) Je suis Charlie!}	[reply] [d/l]

I do not work with Perl Mojolicious framework. But I work with Perl Catalyst framework for which I use Notepad++ IDE. Which has various plugin for our need. For debugging I use inbuilt functions for creating breakpoints.	[reply]
