Debugging Titanium Android applications with node-inspector

Debugging Titanium Android applications with node-inspector 
Thanks to Stevo Perisic

Download the https://github.com/node-inspector/node-inspector using 
$ npm install -g node-inspector

Than go to your titanium project folder and run:
$ node-inspector

after that in the same dir run:

JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/latest  titanium build -f -p android -T emulator -I 7 -S HVGA --debug-host localhost:5858

in your browser open localhost:8080/debug?port=5858

and voila! You have the chrome inspector in your android titanium project!

notice:
titanium build "-I 7 -S HVGA" option tries to spawn avd named titanium_7_HVGA 

Actually I just found a much easier way to do this all.

1. Disable JavaScript minification in the Debug Configuration in Titanium Studio.
2. Press debug in Titanium Studio.
3. Once you see the application running in GenyMotion, look at the Titanium Studio console to find the command it was ran with (in the console, see above comment), and from there copy the debug port number (the number in adb:11421 at the very end of the command).
4. Stop the Titanium Studio debugger with the red stop button.
5. Visit http://127.0.0.1:8080/debug?port=11421 (with the port number that you copied)
6. Enjoy!

It seems to remember breakpoints across runs, too. The only caveat is that you lose the ability to log with Ti.API.info() and such. But since you are debugging line by line, you won't really need that much. You could probably set Ti.API.info function to a function of your choice from the node-inspector console if you really needed that anyway.

Great. Thanks, will give it a try!
