How can I make node-inspector restart when node is restarted?

I use node-inspector a lot. When I edit my code and restart, I get the inevitable

Detached from the target

Error when a new process starts. I always have to go find the tab node inspector is on and restart it.

I was wondering if I could avoid this. For example, send a message to node-inspector from node to tell the browsers tab running node-inspector to restart.

Cross-posting slightly from this SO, with an update to this topic.

There is a link in Chrome (58) standard Developer Pane which opens a new "headless" window which reconnects magically to node inspect no matter how the app is rebuilt / restarted.

I'm running Express.js e.g. DEBUG=myapp:* supervisor -- --inspect bin/www & and found it difficult to reconnect using the normal guid-laden URL which keeps changing. But this Chrome tool works all day reconnecting reliably.

Under Threads > Main, you should see "Node instance available. Connect".

I find the new-window less usable as I'd prefer a tab, but the auto-reconnect is so reliable I'll live with that!

The only downside I've found is when it does reconnect it clears all breakpoints.
