Which process Visual Studio has to attach to run DNX process?

Question

I ran a Web API that I created with the command dnx web . The service is running fine and I get the result too.

I want to attach the Visual Studio Process to this dnx process and debug the API call. Which process I need to attach to?

Answer 1

Use dnx-watch. this show the dnx process. It also automatic restart the server after code change

A fast way to debug is to insert Debugger.Launch(); in your code, on the place where you want to start to debug.

It is faster than attach to the right process

dnx-watch can be installed by

dnu commands install Microsoft.Dnx.Watcher
