debug-cnb
The Cloud Foundry Debug Buildpack is a Cloud Native Buildpack V3 that enables the debug-ing of JVM applications.
Behavior
This buildpack will participate if all of the following conditions are met
$BP_DEBUGis set
The buildpack will do the following:
- Contribute debug configuration to
$JAVA_OPTS
Configuration
| Environment Variable | Description |
|---|---|
$BP_DEBUG |
Whether to contribute debug support |
$BPL_DEBUG_PORT |
What port the debug agent will listen on. Defaults to 8000. |
$BPL_DEBUG_SUSPEND |
Whether the JVM will suspend execution until a debugger has attached. Defaults to n. |
Creating SSH Tunnel
After starting an application with debugging enabled, an SSH tunnel must be created to the container. To create that SSH container, execute the following command:
$ cf ssh -N -T -L <LOCAL_PORT>:localhost:<REMOTE_PORT> <APPLICATION_NAME>
The REMOTE_PORT should match the port configuration for the application (8000 by default). The LOCAL_PORT can be any open port on your computer, but typically matches the REMOTE_PORT where possible.
Once the SSH tunnel has been created, your IDE should connect to localhost:<LOCAL_PORT> for debugging.
