[SemanticResourceAttributes.SERVICE_VERSION]: process.env.SERVICE_VERSION || '1.0.0',
[SemanticResourceAttributes.DEPLOYMENT_ENVIRONMENT]: process.env.NODE_ENV || 'development',
})
);
this.sdk = new NodeSDK({
resource,
spanProcessor: new BatchSpanProcessor(jaegerExporter),
instrumentations: [
getNodeAutoInstrumentations({
'@opentelemetry/instrumentation-fs': {

span.setAttribute('user.id', req.user?.id);
span.setAttribute('session.id', req.session?.id);
},
},
}),

this.sdk.shutdown()
.then(() => console.log('Tracing terminated'))
.catch((error) => console.error('Error terminating tracing', error))
.finally(() => process.exit(0));
});
}
// Custom span creation
createSpan(name, fn, attributes = {}) {
const tracer = trace.getTracer(this.serviceName);
return tracer.startActiveSpan(name, async (span) => {
try {
// Add custom attributes
Object.entries(attributes).forEach(([key, value]) => {

code: SpanStatusCode.ERROR,
message: `HTTP ${res.statusCode}`,
});
}
span.end();
originalEnd.apply(res, args);
};
next();
};
}
}
```
### 4. Debug Logging Framework
Implement structured debug logging:
**Advanced Logger**
```javascript
// debug-logger.js
const winston = require('winston');
const { ElasticsearchTransport } = require('winston-elasticsearch');
class DebugLogger {
constructor(options = {}) {
this.service = options.service || 'app';
this.level = process.env.LOG_LEVEL || 'debug';

winston.format.timestamp(),
winston.format.errors({ stack: true }),
winston.format.splat(),
winston.format.json(),
];
if (process.env.NODE_ENV === 'development') {
formats.push(winston.format.colorize());
formats.push(winston.format.printf(this.devFormat));
}
const transports = [
new winston.transports.Console({
level: this.level,
handleExceptions: true,
handleRejections: true,
}),
];
// Add file transport for debugging
if (process.env.DEBUG_LOG_FILE) {
transports.push(
new winston.transports.File({
filename: process.env.DEBUG_LOG_FILE,
level: 'debug',
maxsize: 10485760, // 10MB
maxFiles: 5,
})
);
}
// Add Elasticsearch for production
if (process.env.ELASTICSEARCH_URL) {
transports.push(
new ElasticsearchTransport({
level: 'info',
clientOpts: {
node: process.env.ELASTICSEARCH_URL,
},
index: `logs-${this.service}`,
})
);
}
return winston.createLogger({
level: this.level,
format: winston.format.combine(...formats),
defaultMeta: {
service: this.service,
environment: process.env.NODE_ENV,
hostname: require('os').hostname(),
pid: process.pid,
},
transports,
});
}
devFormat(info) {
const { timestamp, level, message, ...meta } = info;
const metaString = Object.keys(meta).length ?
'\n' + JSON.stringify(meta, null, 2) : '';
return `${timestamp} [${level}]: ${message}${metaString}`;
}
// Debug-specific methods
trace(message, meta = {}) {
const stack = new Error().stack;
this.logger.debug(message, {
...meta,
trace: stack,
timestamp: Date.now(),
});
}
timing(label, fn) {
const start = process.hrtime.bigint();
const result = fn();
const end = process.hrtime.bigint();
const duration = Number(end - start) / 1000000; // Convert to ms
this.logger.debug(`Timing: ${label}`, {
duration,
unit: 'ms',
});
return result;
}
memory() {
const usage = process.memoryUsage();
this.logger.debug('Memory usage', {
rss: `${Math.round(usage.rss / 1024 / 1024)}MB`,
heapTotal: `${Math.round(usage.heapTotal / 1024 / 1024)}MB`,
heapUsed: `${Math.round(usage.heapUsed / 1024 / 1024)}MB`,
external: `${Math.round(usage.external / 1024 / 1024)}MB`,
});
}
}
// Debug context manager
class DebugContext {
constructor() {
this.contexts = new Map();
}
create(id, metadata = {}) {
const context = {
id,
startTime: Date.now(),
metadata,
logs: [],
spans: [],
};
this.contexts.set(id, context);
return context;
}
log(contextId, level, message, data = {}) {
const context = this.contexts.get(contextId);
if (context) {
context.logs.push({
timestamp: Date.now(),
level,
message,
data,
});
}
}
export(contextId) {
const context = this.contexts.get(contextId);
if (!context) return null;
return {
...context,
duration: Date.now() - context.startTime,
logCount: context.logs.length,
};
}
}
```
### 5. Source Map Configuration
Set up source map support for production debugging:
**Source Map Setup**
```javascript
// webpack.config.js
module.exports = {
mode: 'production',
devtool: 'hidden-source-map', // Generate source maps but don't reference them
output: {
filename: '[name].[contenthash].js',
sourceMapFilename: 'sourcemaps/[name].[contenthash].js.map',
},
plugins: [
// Upload source maps to error tracking service
new SentryWebpackPlugin({
authToken: process.env.SENTRY_AUTH_TOKEN,
org: 'your-org',
project: 'your-project',
include: './dist',
ignore: ['node_modules'],
urlPrefix: '~/',
release: process.env.RELEASE_VERSION,
deleteAfterCompile: true,
}),
],
};
// Runtime source map support
require('source-map-support').install({
environment: 'node',
handleUncaughtExceptions: false,
retrieveSourceMap(source) {
// Custom source map retrieval for production
if (process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production') {
const sourceMapUrl = getSourceMapUrl(source);
if (sourceMapUrl) {
const map = fetchSourceMap(sourceMapUrl);
return {
url: source,
map: map,
};
}
}
return null;
},
});
// Stack trace enhancement
Error.prepareStackTrace = (error, stack) => {
const mapped = stack.map(frame => {
const fileName = frame.getFileName();
const lineNumber = frame.getLineNumber();
const columnNumber = frame.getColumnNumber();
// Try to get original position
const original = getOriginalPosition(fileName, lineNumber, columnNumber);
return {
function: frame.getFunctionName() || '<anonymous>',
file: original?.source || fileName,
line: original?.line || lineNumber,
column: original?.column || columnNumber,
native: frame.isNative(),
async: frame.isAsync(),
};
});
return {
message: error.message,
stack: mapped,
};
};
```
### 6. Performance Profiling
Implement performance profiling tools:
**Performance Profiler**
```javascript
// performance-profiler.js
const v8Profiler = require('v8-profiler-next');
const fs = require('fs');
const path = require('path');
class PerformanceProfiler {
constructor(options = {}) {
this.outputDir = options.outputDir || './profiles';
this.profiles = new Map();
// Ensure output directory exists
if (!fs.existsSync(this.outputDir)) {
fs.mkdirSync(this.outputDir, { recursive: true });
}
}
startCPUProfile(id, options = {}) {
const title = options.title || `cpu-profile-${id}`;
v8Profiler.startProfiling(title, true);
this.profiles.set(id, {
type: 'cpu',
title,
startTime: Date.now(),
});
return id;
}
stopCPUProfile(id) {
const profileInfo = this.profiles.get(id);
if (!profileInfo || profileInfo.type !== 'cpu') {
throw new Error(`CPU profile ${id} not found`);
}
const profile = v8Profiler.stopProfiling(profileInfo.title);
const duration = Date.now() - profileInfo.startTime;
// Export profile
const fileName = `${profileInfo.title}-${Date.now()}.cpuprofile`;
const filePath = path.join(this.outputDir, fileName);
profile.export((error, result) => {
if (!error) {
fs.writeFileSync(filePath, result);
console.log(`CPU profile saved to ${filePath}`);
}
profile.delete();
});
this.profiles.delete(id);
return {
id,
duration,
filePath,
};
}
takeHeapSnapshot(tag = '') {
const fileName = `heap-${tag}-${Date.now()}.heapsnapshot`;
const filePath = path.join(this.outputDir, fileName);
const snapshot = v8Profiler.takeSnapshot();
// Export snapshot
snapshot.export((error, result) => {
if (!error) {
fs.writeFileSync(filePath, result);
console.log(`Heap snapshot saved to ${filePath}`);
}
snapshot.delete();
});
return filePath;
}
measureFunction(fn, name = 'anonymous') {
const measurements = {
name,
executions: 0,
totalTime: 0,
minTime: Infinity,
maxTime: 0,
avgTime: 0,
lastExecution: null,
};
return new Proxy(fn, {
apply(target, thisArg, args) {
const start = process.hrtime.bigint();
try {
const result = target.apply(thisArg, args);
if (result instanceof Promise) {
return result.finally(() => {
this.recordExecution(start);
});
}
this.recordExecution(start);
return result;
} catch (error) {
this.recordExecution(start);
throw error;
}
},
recordExecution(start) {
const end = process.hrtime.bigint();
const duration = Number(end - start) / 1000000; // Convert to ms
measurements.executions++;
measurements.totalTime += duration;

);
return {
increasing,

rate: delta / (last.timestamp - first.timestamp) * 1000 * 60, // MB per minute
};
}
}
```
### 7. Debug Configuration Management
Centralize debug configurations:
**Debug Configuration**
```javascript
// debug-config.js
class DebugConfiguration {
constructor() {
this.config = {
// Debug levels
levels: {
error: 0,
warn: 1,
info: 2,
debug: 3,
trace: 4,
},
// Feature flags
features: {
remoteDebugging: process.env.ENABLE_REMOTE_DEBUG === 'true',
tracing: process.env.ENABLE_TRACING === 'true',
profiling: process.env.ENABLE_PROFILING === 'true',
memoryMonitoring: process.env.ENABLE_MEMORY_MONITORING === 'true',
},
// Debug endpoints
endpoints: {
jaeger: process.env.JAEGER_ENDPOINT || 'http://localhost:14268',
elasticsearch: process.env.ELASTICSEARCH_URL || 'http://localhost:9200',
sentry: process.env.SENTRY_DSN,
},
// Sampling rates
sampling: {
traces: parseFloat(process.env.TRACE_SAMPLING_RATE || '0.1'),
profiles: parseFloat(process.env.PROFILE_SAMPLING_RATE || '0.01'),
logs: parseFloat(process.env.LOG_SAMPLING_RATE || '1.0'),
},
};
}
isEnabled(feature) {
return this.config.features[feature] || false;
}
getLevel() {
const level = process.env.DEBUG_LEVEL || 'info';
return this.config.levels[level] || 2;
}
shouldSample(type) {
const rate = this.config.sampling[type] || 1.0;
return Math.random() < rate;
}
}
// Debug middleware factory
class DebugMiddlewareFactory {
static create(app, config) {
const middlewares = [];
if (config.isEnabled('tracing')) {
const tracingMiddleware = new TracingMiddleware();
middlewares.push(tracingMiddleware.express());
}
if (config.isEnabled('profiling')) {
middlewares.push(this.profilingMiddleware());
}
if (config.isEnabled('memoryMonitoring')) {
const detector = new MemoryLeakDetector();
detector.start();
}
// Debug routes
if (process.env.NODE_ENV === 'development') {
app.get('/debug/heap', (req, res) => {
const profiler = new PerformanceProfiler();
const path = profiler.takeHeapSnapshot('manual');
res.json({ heapSnapshot: path });
});
app.get('/debug/profile', async (req, res) => {
const profiler = new PerformanceProfiler();
const id = profiler.startCPUProfile('manual');
setTimeout(() => {
const result = profiler.stopCPUProfile(id);
res.json(result);
}, 10000);
});
app.get('/debug/metrics', (req, res) => {
res.json({
memory: process.memoryUsage(),
cpu: process.cpuUsage(),
uptime: process.uptime(),
});
});
}
return middlewares;
}
static profilingMiddleware() {
const profiler = new PerformanceProfiler();
return (req, res, next) => {
if (Math.random() < 0.01) { // 1% sampling
const id = profiler.startCPUProfile(`request-${Date.now()}`);
res.on('finish', () => {
profiler.stopCPUProfile(id);
});
}
next();
};
}
}
```
### 8. Production Debugging
Enable safe production debugging:
**Production Debug Tools**
```javascript
// production-debug.js
class ProductionDebugger {
constructor(options = {}) {
this.enabled = process.env.PRODUCTION_DEBUG === 'true';
this.authToken = process.env.DEBUG_AUTH_TOKEN;
this.allowedIPs = (process.env.DEBUG_ALLOWED_IPS || '').split(',');
}
middleware() {
return (req, res, next) => {
if (!this.enabled) {
return next();
}
// Check authorization
const token = req.headers['x-debug-token'];
const ip = req.ip || req.connection.remoteAddress;
if (token !== this.authToken || !this.allowedIPs.includes(ip)) {
return next();
}
// Add debug headers
res.setHeader('X-Debug-Enabled', 'true');
// Enable debug mode for this request
req.debugMode = true;
req.debugContext = new DebugContext().create(req.id);
// Override console for this request
const originalConsole = { ...console };
['log', 'debug', 'info', 'warn', 'error'].forEach(method => {
console[method] = (...args) => {
req.debugContext.log(req.id, method, args[0], args.slice(1));
originalConsole[method](...args);
};
});
// Restore console on response
res.on('finish', () => {
Object.assign(console, originalConsole);
// Send debug info if requested
if (req.headers['x-debug-response'] === 'true') {
const debugInfo = req.debugContext.export(req.id);
res.setHeader('X-Debug-Info', JSON.stringify(debugInfo));
}
});
next();
};
}
}
// Conditional breakpoints in production
class ConditionalBreakpoint {
constructor(condition, callback) {
this.condition = condition;
this.callback = callback;
this.hits = 0;
}
check(context) {
if (this.condition(context)) {
this.hits++;
// Log breakpoint hit
console.debug('Conditional breakpoint hit', {
condition: this.condition.toString(),
hits: this.hits,
context,
});
// Execute callback
if (this.callback) {
this.callback(context);
}
// In production, don't actually break
if (process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production') {
// Take snapshot instead
const profiler = new PerformanceProfiler();
profiler.takeHeapSnapshot(`breakpoint-${Date.now()}`);
} else {
// In development, use debugger
debugger;
}
}
}
}
// Usage
const breakpoints = new Map();
// Set conditional breakpoint
breakpoints.set('high-memory', new ConditionalBreakpoint(
(context) => context.memoryUsage > 500 * 1024 * 1024, // 500MB
(context) => {
console.error('High memory usage detected', context);
// Send alert
alerting.send('high-memory', context);
}
));
// Check breakpoints in code
function checkBreakpoints(context) {
breakpoints.forEach(breakpoint => {
breakpoint.check(context);
});
}
```
### 9. Debug Dashboard
Create a debug dashboard for monitoring:
**Debug Dashboard**
```html
<!-- debug-dashboard.html -->
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Debug Dashboard</title>
<style>

entry.innerHTML = `
<span>${log.timestamp}</span>
<span>[${log.level.toUpperCase()}]</span>
<span>${log.message}</span>
`;
container.insertBefore(entry, container.firstChild);
// Keep only last 100 logs
while (container.children.length > 100) {
container.removeChild(container.lastChild);
}
}
// Memory usage chart
const memoryChart = document.getElementById('memoryChart').getContext('2d');
const memoryData = [];
function updateMemoryChart(usage) {
memoryData.push({
time: new Date(),
value: usage,
});
// Keep last 50 points
if (memoryData.length > 50) {
memoryData.shift();
}
// Draw chart
// ... chart drawing logic
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
```
