Node.js with Docker

Last modified: 10 August 2022

Required plugins:

JavaScript and TypeScript, JavaScript Debugger, Node.js, Docker -  The plugins are available only in IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate, where they are enabled by default.

Node.js Remote Interpreter -  Install the plugin on the Settings/Preferences | Plugins page, tab Marketplace. The plugin is available only in IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate.

See Before you start below.

With Docker, you can quickly bootstrap your Node.js application to run, debug, and profile it from IntelliJ IDEA. The IDE will take care of the initial configuration by automatically creating a new Dockerfile, building and running an image, syncing your source code, and installing npm dependencies in the container.

You can find some examples at Quick Tour of WebStorm and Docker.
