inspector,cli: restore `--debug` and `--inspect --debug-brk` with deprecation warnings by refack · Pull Request #12949 · nodejs/node · GitHub

spinning-off #12580

status summary

current generation of IDEs work with both protocols (using version detection)
vendors have been exclusively using the --inspect --debug-brk combo to trigger inspector
if we don't restore this alias current IDEs will not work with node v8
be "noisy" about this being deprecated, and give vendors a year to adjust

motivation

--debug-brk & --debug don't exist after #12197, leaving a current generation of tools without
a way to start node with inspector activated and breaking on first line.

Add --debug-brk and --debug back in as an undocumented and deprecated option until 7.x is no longer
supported.

Fixes: #12364
Fixes: #12630

Current consensus #12630 (comment):

We need to keep --inspect --debug-brk working for the time being.

For better usability & less confusion --inspect-brk is still a good thing

This would also require a deprecation warning to be emitted at startup when --debug-brk is used. The CTC discussion also centered on adding --debug back as an alias for --inspect, also with a deprecation warning.

Note: The deprecation warning would need to use the process.emitWarning() mechanism. I believe there is a deprecation code already allocated for this.

@jasnell added that to first comment
I believe that @jkrems also requested the --debug-brk alone will fail, and that only the combo --inspect --debug-brk will be valid.

This is how I made it fail: hybrist@50ecfe4

E.g. track --debug-brk being used and then fail (hard) if it was used w/o --inspect. Because that case would mean someone relatively clearly was trying to start the old protocol.

Testing the waters CI:https://ci.nodejs.org/job/node-test-commit/9789/

This should use the process.emitWarning() mechanism instead. This can be done by setting a flag and later calling process.emitWarning() during bootstrapping.

It should also be a proper deprecation warning... e.g.

process.emitWarning(message, 'DeprecationWarning', 'DEP00NN');

Where DEP00NN is an appropriate deprecation code (see docs/api/deprecations.md)

If a comment is helpful here I think it could be a bit clearer - wait_connect_ means to break before executing user code (i.e. on first line) and is used with both --debug-brk and --inspect-brk.

I think we should only support --debug-brk with --inspect, not --debug, since that's all that has been requested. The code here does just that, but the original post and title imply that it adds back --debug too, so wanted to be explicit.

I think it would be helpful to print a message and exit on --debug instead of crashing, but that should probably be in a separate PR.

I'll phrase a more generic title, since we want --debug[=port] to be a deprecated aliased to --inspect[=port] #12949 (comment) but keep the single --debug-brk[=port] invalid...

I think it would be helpful to print a message and exit on --debug instead of crashing, but that should probably be in a separate PR.

I'll clean that up, since it should be process.emitWarning(message, 'DeprecationWarning', 'DEP00NN'); anyway.

@refack

we want --debug[=port] to be a deprecated aliased to --inspect[=port]

I'm okay with this if downstream users (or IDEs) need it - do they? As @ChALkeR noted, the behavior of starting the Inspector agent rather than the legacy debugger agent would still be unexpected.

If downstream users don't need it, I think it would be best to print a deprecation message (e.g. "please use --inspect") and exit.

@jasnell re: #12949 (comment) If I understand you correctly, the wanted result is:

--debug == --inspect + deprecation warning
--inspect --debug-brk = --inspect-brk + deprecation warning (for IDEs backward compatibility)
--debug-brk = invalid

@joshgav I don't know of 3rd party requirements for the above (1) either. But @jasnell mentioned it explicitly.

I don't think (1) is a requirement and I'd argue it would be a dangerous change. If I read it correctly, this PR only restores --inspect --debug-brk and that's the only thing that I heard IDEs asking for. --debug is still an invalid flag after this change.

The CTC notes seem to focus on --debug-brk only:

Next steps

Никита to review use as alias for potential problems.

If/when Никита approves: restore --debug-brk as an alias to --inspect-brk that also prints a deprecation warning.

It should also be a proper deprecation warning... e.g.

It's CC side, we don't have a well guarded process.emitWarning.
What would you suggest:

Implement (with test all the noDeprecation throwDeprecation traceDeprecation)
Leak a hint so bootstrap will handle this?

Sorry for the spam, but this will definitely still make it into Node 8, right? It seems like the plan is still to ship next week?

It's CC side, we don't have a well guarded process.emitWarning.

I think @jasnell was suggesting the bootstrap hint:

@roblourens Thanks for spamming this PR. Yes, this definitely should get into Node 8. It's not semver-major so we can still land it in node 8 even it isn't part of the very first release. But obviously it would be great if we could get it into 8.0.0 to reduce frustration.

After the really extensive discussion we had about this, my understanding was that we could fix it for 8.0.0 so that there wouldn't be any version of Node that vscode and other clients can't debug. Even if we don't have the perfect deprecation warning, I think it's really important to get something out to not leave a gap like that.

Yep. I'll finish this today.

Should this be backported to v6.x?

I'm not sure. Ping @nodejs/diagnostics, @nodejs/release should we / could we replace the:

Warning: This is an experimental feature and could change at any time.

with

(node:13156) [DEP0062] DeprecationWarning: `node --inspect --debug-brk` is deprecated. Please use `node --inspect-brk` instead.

(node:13156) [DEP0062] DeprecationWarning: `node --inspect --debug-brk` is deprecated.
Please use `node --inspect-brk` instead.

Did we port --inspect-brk to 6.x yet? If so, then adding that warning sounds good.

Weird that the PR's file changes are empty, you need to explicitly look at 16689e3 to see what changed, but its a largish diff, with no docs (?), and the commit message doesn't say what it does.

@refack What did this PR do?

Add --debug-brk and --debug back in as an undocumented and deprecated option until 7.x is no longer
supported.

Is that still accurate? 7.x is no longer supported, so if this was a temporary measure to make 8.x and 7.x be more compatible, maybe it doesn't apply to 6.x, and can now be reversed on 8.x? Or on 9.x?

The main point was to make --inspect --debug-brk work again and emit a deprecation warning (while also making lone --debug and --debug-brk invalid):

if (process._invalidDebug) {
  process.emitWarning(
    '`node --debug` and `node --debug-brk` are invalid. ' +
    'Please use `node --inspect` or `node --inspect-brk` instead.',
    'DeprecationWarning', 'DEP0062', startup, true);
  process.exit(9);
} else if (process._deprecatedDebugBrk) {
  process.emitWarning(
    '`node --inspect --debug-brk` is deprecated. ' +
    'Please use `node --inspect-brk` instead.',
    'DeprecationWarning', 'DEP0062', startup, true);
}

I'm not sure it's accurate, well at least it's only part of the motivation. The other part is that 3rd party tooling depend on the --inspect --debug-brk combo, so IMHO we need to wait at least a year (an arbitrary measure of tools' version lifespan).
Also we declared the combo "valid but deprecated" so it needs to stay within the v8.x line.

As for backporting to v6.x, there the use of any --inspect* argument emits an experimental warning. IMHO that is no longer true, and should be removed and probably replaced with a deprecation warning for --debug*. Anyway emitting both for the --inspect --debug-break combo does not make sense.

Thanks @refack . I marked as dont-land-on-v6.x. We could rearrange the warnings, etc., for inspect/debug on 6.x but in the absence of complaints, it just pokes a hornet's nest of questions. Making --debug emit new deprecation messages is semver-major, so it can't happen. Removing experimental warning for inspect could be considered semver-major, too.

Sure, makes sense

I think the plan was to drop support for --debug-brk in a future release. I'd be fine with it happening in v9.x, @refack are you suggesting we wait till v10.x?

@refack are you suggesting we wait till v10.x?

Yes.
To be clear: should be in 9, should not be in 10.
I would summon all the 3rd party stakeholders, but I think we can agree on this, and ping them when we do remove it.

I would summon all the 3rd party stakeholders.

👍 to that. I think we saw that being a bit more conservative with changing this interface is healthy. Given that we have a chance to remove it every few month and (afaict) it's not causing a huge maintenance burden, there's no real pressure to remove it. Let's not forget that the latest LTS still requires all tools to use --inspect --debug-brk, so they couldn't even start using --inspect-brk realistically.

Happy to wait till 10.x.

For some configurations IDE still uses --inspect --debug-brk combo without version detection: e.g. it's so for remote Node.js interpreters. It allows to target wide version range: node 6 (>= 6.3.0), 7, 8, 9 and node 10 nightly (tested on https://nodejs.org/download/nightly/v10.0.0-nightly201801239870b53810/). There will be problems if support for --inspect --debug-brk is dropped in node 10.x as it was planned.
@refack Is it possible to preserve --inspect --debug-brk in node 10 and future node versions until node 6 maintenance LTS ends (April 2019 according to https://github.com/nodejs/Release)? // cc @ulitink

Moves the exit of `--debug` and `--debug-brk` earlier, that is, after the option parsing is done in the C++ land. Also removes `process._invalidDebug`.

This has already been practically end-of-life since `node --debug` alone would exit the process. This patch drops support of `node --inspect --debug-brk` as well. `node --inspect --debug-brk` has been deprecated since v8, it has been maintained so that vendors can target Node.js v6 and above without detecting versions. The support of `--inspect`, which starts from v6, will reach end-of-life in April 2019, it should be safe to drop the support of `--inspect --debug-brk` altogether in v12. Also removes `process._deprecatedDebugBrk` PR-URL: #25828 Refs: #12949 Reviewed-By: Anna Henningsen <anna@addaleax.net> Reviewed-By: Eugene Ostroukhov <eostroukhov@google.com> Reviewed-By: Richard Lau <riclau@uk.ibm.com> Reviewed-By: Matteo Collina <matteo.collina@gmail.com>
