Docker Toolbox for Nodejs Post-mortem debugging, comes with lldb, perf and llnode

This project is heavily inspired by the works of Howard Hellyer and Brendan Gregg

Setup

• Copy the core dump and node binary executable specific to the process that generated the core dump into a cloned copy of this repo (see llnode issue #74)

• Start the container

    ./bin/start_disposable.sh

• To use findjsobjects and other similar commands, a memory ranges file must be generated. Simply run ./set_memoryranges.sh within the container and follow the prompt.
