Passing cli arguements to nodebb's child processes

[Qwertyzw]

I'd like to pass --inspect to the forked app.js process. Right now I'm simply bypassing nodebb and doing node --inspect ./app.js

I'd like to be able to do something like ./nodebb nodearg=--inspect dev is there a way to do this?

I've seen other cli tools that implement something like this

gcc <otherArgs> -Xlinker arg <otherArgs>

arg will be passed to the linker child process

@Qwertyzw why?

@PitaJ Trying to get the unminified client js and debug the server at the same time.

@Qwertyzw NODE_ENV=development&& ./nodebb build && node --inspect app should work for that. In the next version of NodeBB, you could even do ./nodebb build --dev && node --inspect app
