Since you are debugging an application the best you can do is use the module nodemon, this module watches your folder for files change when a file changes the application is automatically redeployed.

To install nodemon use this command, install it globally:

npm install nodemon -g

To execute from CLI you use

nodemon --debug app.js

PS: Have in mind that when i say redeployed the memory of the process is flushed and do not use nodemon under production environment.
