/usr/bin/rdbg [options] -- [debuggee options]
Debug console mode:
-n, --nonstop Do not stop at the beginning of the script.
-e DEBUG_COMMAND Execute debug command at the beginning of the script.
-x, --init-script=FILE Execute debug command in the FILE.
--no-rc Ignore ~/.rdbgrc
--no-color Disable colorize
--no-sigint-hook Disable to trap SIGINT
-c, --command Enable command mode.
The first argument should be a command name in $PATH.
Example: 'rdbg -c bundle exec rake test'
-O, --open=[FRONTEND] Start remote debugging with opening the network port.
If TCP/IP options are not given, a UNIX domain socket will be used.
If FRONTEND is given, prepare for the FRONTEND.
Now rdbg, vscode and chrome is supported.
--sock-path=SOCK_PATH UNIX Domain socket path
--port=PORT Listening TCP/IP port
--port-range=PORT_RANGE Number of ports to try to connect to
--host=HOST Listening TCP/IP host
--cookie=COOKIE Set a cookie for connection
--session-name=NAME Session name
Debug console mode runs Ruby program with the debug console.
'rdbg target.rb foo bar' starts like 'ruby target.rb foo bar'.
'rdbg -- -r foo -e bar' starts like 'ruby -r foo -e bar'.
'rdbg -c rake test' starts like 'rake test'.
'rdbg -c -- rake test -t' starts like 'rake test -t'.
'rdbg -c bundle exec rake test' starts like 'bundle exec rake test'.
'rdbg -O target.rb foo bar' starts and accepts attaching with UNIX domain socket.
'rdbg -O --port 1234 target.rb foo bar' starts accepts attaching with TCP/IP localhost:1234.
'rdbg -O --port 1234 -- -r foo -e bar' starts accepts attaching with TCP/IP localhost:1234.
'rdbg target.rb -O chrome --port 1234' starts and accepts connecting from Chrome Devtools with localhost:1234.
Attach mode:
-A, --attach Attach to debuggee process.
Attach mode attaches the remote debug console to the debuggee process.
'rdbg -A' tries to connect via UNIX domain socket.
If there are multiple processes are waiting for the
debugger connection, list possible debuggee names.
'rdbg -A path' tries to connect via UNIX domain socket with given path name.
'rdbg -A port' tries to connect to localhost:port via TCP/IP.
'rdbg -A host port' tries to connect to host:port via TCP/IP.
Other options:
-v Show version number
--version Show version number and exit
-h, --help Print help
--util=NAME Utility mode (used by tools)
--stop-at-load Stop immediately when the debugging feature is loaded.
NOTE
All messages communicated between a debugger and a debuggee are *NOT* encrypted.
Please use the remote debugging feature carefully.
