Payara Micro Debug Netbeans

General Payara Micro
1

I am new to Payara Micro and following this tutorial

I notice I can run the demo micro app as : java -jar payara-micro.jar --port 8280 --noCluster –deploy /path/to/ CrudPersistence.war

But I would ask : How can I run in DEBUG mode from NetBeans ?

ok , I can run it fron NB with payara-micro-maven-plugin:start , but why there isn’t a debug goal ?

You can add the following to you project files:

pom.xml:
