Hi Dominic the preliminary work I did was already submitted as a PR to build a standalone docker image (that is critical for my design).
The rest the work is here: https://github.com/sciabarracom/openwhisk-ide and uses the (upcoming) typescript runtime here https://github.com/sciabarracom/openwhisk-runtime-typescript. But do not use it yet as it is pretty much work in progress, no documentation nor it is even remotely stable. The key idea is to leverage the fact that actionloop launches a process for each action, and I am simplying putting the process in debug mode. Then I am using Eclipse Theia, that is vscode in a browser, https://theia-ide.org/ as an editor and debugger interface. The key problem I have is to connect the action running under a debugger (problem solved) with the debugger client. So far I am just starting the action , asking to the action its IP and then connecting to it with the debugger. Problem is that the action may have a different IP I am now in the process of trying a different approach, where I communicate to the action the IP of the IDE and ask to the action to connect back, maybe creating a tunnel. In this way it could work in a more generic way, even with a production whisk, as the only requirement will be to have the client (that is itself a docker container) reachable by the action. -- Michele Sciabarra mich...@sciabarra.com ----- Original message ----- From: Dominic Kim <style9...@gmail.com> To: dev@openwhisk.apache.org Subject: Re: Preview of a OpenWhisk IDE & Debugger... and an help request Date: Monday, February 03, 2020 7:07 AM Hi Michele. Thank you for sharing great works. We here(Naver) are also using a web based debugging feature and I would like to align ours with yours. Is there any reference that I can follow up your works? Did you open any PR? And I want to share our version at this tech interchange call. Best regards Dominic 2020년 2월 2일 (일) 오전 7:02, Michele Sciabarra <mich...@sciabarra.com>님이 작성: > Great suggestion.
