Debugger

The debugger allows you to debug PortalScripts on a DOCUMENTS 5 server, meaning to

  • launch a script from within VS Code for debugging it on the server
  • attach to a script that is already running on server
  • use breakpoints in a script or to step through the code
  • watch script values in the WATCH section of the VS Code Debug View

Screenshot

  • view some important PortalScripting variables in the VARIABLES section

  • Uploading, downloading and executing PortalScripts.
  • Generating d.ts files for getting IntelliSense for DOCUMENTS projects.
  • Downloading the XML files of PortalScripts or FileTypes.
