In general, when you are developing an application, use the `npm` command to run | ||
it. This enables you to see stack traces and console output immediately. | ||
|
||
For example: | ||
|
||
``` | ||
$ cd myapp | ||
$ npm start | ||
``` | ||
|
||
LoopBack 4 also allows you to specify debug strings that the application will | ||
display to the console (or save to a file) to help you verify or diagnose the | ||
app. See [Setting debug strings](Setting-debug-strings.md). |

You can specify debug strings when you run an application, as explained below, | ||
to display specific log output to the console. You can also redirect the output | ||
to a file, if desired. These techniques are often helpful in debugging | ||
applications. | ||
|
||
## Using debug strings | ||
|
||
LoopBack has a number of built-in debug strings to help with debugging.Specify a | ||
string on the command-line via an environment variable as follows: | ||
|
||
**MacOS and Linux** | ||
|
||
```shell | ||
$ DEBUG=<pattern>[,<pattern>...] npm start | ||
``` | ||
|
||
**Windows** | ||
|
||
```shell | ||
C:\> set DEBUG=<pattern>[,<pattern>...] | ||
C:\> npm start | ||
``` | ||
|
||
where <_pattern_> is a string-matching pattern specifying debug strings to | ||
match. You can specify as many matching patterns as you wish. | ||
|
||
For example (MacOS and Linux): | ||
|
||
```shell | ||
$ DEBUG=loopback:datasource npm start | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Or, on Windows: | ||
|
||
```shell | ||
C:\> set DEBUG=loopback:datasource | ||
C:\> npm start | ||
``` | ||
|
||
You'll see output such as (truncated for brevity): | ||
|
||
``` | ||
loopback:datasource Settings: {"name":"db","debug":true} -0ms | ||
loopback:datasource Settings: {"name":"geo","connector":"rest",... | ||
``` | ||
|
||
You can use an asterisk (`*`) in the pattern to match any string. For example | ||
the following would match any debug string containing "oracle": | ||
|
||
```shell | ||
$ DEBUG=*oracle npm start | ||
``` | ||
|
||
You can also exclude specific debuggers by prefixing them with a "-" character. | ||
For example, `DEBUG=*,-rest-crud:*` would include all debuggers except those | ||
starting with "rest-crud:". | ||
|
||
## Debug string format | ||
|
||
These strings have the format | ||
|
||
`module[:area]:string` | ||
|
||
Where: | ||
|
||
- _module_ is the name of the module, for example `loopback` or | ||
`loopback-connector-mongodb`. | ||
- _area_ is an optional identifier such as `cli` or `repository` to identify the | ||
purpose of the module | ||
- _string_ is the debug string specified in the target TypeScript/JavaScript | ||
source file, such as `application.ts`. | ||
|
||
For example: | ||
|
||
`loopback:cli:model-generator` | ||
|
||
The debug string `model-generator` is specified in the source file | ||
[`generators/model/index.js`](https://github.com/strongloop/loopback-next/blob/master/packages/cli/generators/model/index.js) | ||
of the `@loopback/cli` module. | ||
