How to use locally with --inspect

[quantuminformation]

How do I do something like this in my npm scripts

"debug": "forever start --inspect node_modules/@google-cloud/functions-framework --target=api",

however it doesn't accept it with

help:    usage: forever [action] [options] SCRIPT [script-options]
help:
help:    Monitors the script specified in the current process or as a daemon
help:

ideas?

Looks like this is what I need:

"debug2": "forever -c 'node --inspect' node_modules/@google-cloud/functions-framework --target=api",

Reopening as this as errors will still shutdown node in --inspect mode:
