PyCharm 2017.2 broken support for node remote debug?

Completed

Does debugging node 8.x work in PyCharm 2017.2? When I try to attach, PyCharm just indefinitely says it's "connecting...".

I'm using node 8.4 in docker, running PyCharm on MacOS. Starting node with --inspect to specify the port. I'm able to connect with Chrome dev tools so I know node is working and the docker ports are open correctly.

I'm also able to remote debug a different project which uses node 6.2.

*sigh*

A second pass of Googling turned up a thread for another Jetbrains product about this... where it's casually mentioned that node 8 can only be debugged on the current EAP release. Just upgraded and now it works. Using PyCharm 2017.3 EAP (Professional Edition) Build #PY-173.2696.9, built on September 26, 2017.

Hi Jared! PyCharm in fact borrows all JS related stuff from WebStorm.
