Debugging Vue in express-vue
Hello,
I have trouble using the debugger for vue, to be precise: the break points dont pause the application,
which means that I cant step through the code.
My setup is the following:
-Server: express based on node.js (v 8.11.1)
-serving a vue site with the usage of express-vue (https://github.com/express-vue/express-vue) (v4.0.14)
- vue (v always the latest)
My attempt to debug is the following:
-first I started the express server normally.
-second I added the Javascript Debug Configuration adding the correct url. I know that works because when starting or debugging it automatically starts the browser with the correct link and shows everything that was sent to the client.
-the app works as always, but when a break point should be hit, it doesnt pause the application.
So my questions are the following:
- Is it possible to debug this kind of setup?
-> yes. What did I do wrong up to this point or rather what should I do to get it working?
-> No. Is there a reason why and is it fixable? If it is fixable, who has to fix it? Webstorm, the developer of express-vue or me?
Thank you it advance

Are you able to debug using other tools? I've tried their official sample (https://github.com/express-vue/express-vue#example--starter), and it seems that no sourcemaps are created when rendering vue files, so only generated files are available.
