<p>The <code>inspector</code> module provides an API for interacting with the V8 inspector.</p>
<p>It can be accessed using:</p>
<pre><code class="language-js"><span class="hljs-keyword">const</span> inspector = <span class="hljs-built_in">require</span>(<span class="hljs-string">'inspector'</span>);</code></pre>
<section><h3><code>inspector.close()</code><span><a class="mark" href="#inspector_inspector_close" id="inspector_inspector_close">#</a></span></h3>
<p>Deactivate the inspector. Blocks until there are no active connections.</p>
</section><section><h3><code>inspector.console</code><span><a class="mark" href="#inspector_inspector_console" id="inspector_inspector_console">#</a></span></h3>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Object" class="type">&#x3C;Object></a> An object to send messages to the remote inspector console.</li>
</ul>
<pre><code class="language-js"><span class="hljs-built_in">require</span>(<span class="hljs-string">'inspector'</span>).<span class="hljs-property">console</span>.<span class="hljs-title function_">log</span>(<span class="hljs-string">'a message'</span>);</code></pre>
<p>The inspector console does not have API parity with Node.js
console.</p>
</section><section><h3><code>inspector.open([port[, host[, wait]]])</code><span><a class="mark" href="#inspector_inspector_open_port_host_wait" id="inspector_inspector_open_port_host_wait">#</a></span></h3>
<ul>
<li><code>port</code> <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Data_structures#Number_type" class="type">&#x3C;number></a> Port to listen on for inspector connections. Optional.
<strong>Default:</strong> what was specified on the CLI.</li>
<li><code>host</code> <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Data_structures#String_type" class="type">&#x3C;string></a> Host to listen on for inspector connections. Optional.
<strong>Default:</strong> what was specified on the CLI.</li>
<li><code>wait</code> <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Data_structures#Boolean_type" class="type">&#x3C;boolean></a> Block until a client has connected. Optional.
<strong>Default:</strong> <code>false</code>.</li>
</ul>
<p>Activate inspector on host and port. Equivalent to <code>node --inspect=[[host:]port]</code>, but can be done programmatically after node has
started.</p>
<p>If wait is <code>true</code>, will block until a client has connected to the inspect port
and flow control has been passed to the debugger client.</p>
<p>See the <a href="cli.html#inspector_security">security warning</a> regarding the <code>host</code>
parameter usage.</p>

<p>The latest version of the V8 inspector protocol is published on the
<a href="https://chromedevtools.github.io/devtools-protocol/v8/">Chrome DevTools Protocol Viewer</a>.</p>
<p>Node.js inspector supports all the Chrome DevTools Protocol domains declared
by V8. Chrome DevTools Protocol domain provides an interface for interacting
with one of the runtime agents used to inspect the application state and listen
to the run-time events.</p>
