## Debug Node.js code with Chrome Developer Tools on Linux, Windows and OS X.
This software aims to make things easier :smile:. With [ironNode](https://github.com/s-a/iron-node) you have the full power of [JavaScript debugging](https://developer.chrome.com/devtools/docs/javascript-debugging) within Chrome Developer Tools.

## Installation
```npm install iron-node -g;```

## Usage
The usage is the same as ```node```. Use ```iron-node``` instead of ```node```.  
Keep in mind to place the keyword ```debugger;``` to a place where you want to stop. Run a debug session with the given JavaScript file.
```bash
iron-node PATH_TO_NODE_JS_FILE [--customparm1=foo --customparm2=bar];
```
