Introduction

You can use the jovo run command to start the development server in your index.js file (default is port 3000), and then point the Jovo Webhook to it.

You can also specify the file you want to run:

Options

--port, -p: Defines the port that will be used to run the local development server. Default: 3000.

--inspect: Run debugging mode on a specified port.

--stage: Specify the stage where the configuration will be taken from.

--webhook-only: Starts the Jovo webhook proxy without executing the code.

--disable-jovo-debugger: Disables the Jovo debugger.

--model-test: Activates the language model test.

--timeout: Sets timeout in milliseconds.

--record, -r: Can be used to record requests and responses of your Jovo app for testing purposes.

--cwd: Changes the current working directory of the source code. Typically, it would be ./src.

Integrations

If you want to see another integration, please feel free to submit an issue. Thanks!

Here is a list of integrations that work with jovo run:

nodemons

For this, we're using nodemon, a neat package that monitors your app files and automatically restarts the server.
