 Run EMQX without building a release (which takes longer time).
+Node state is stored in '_build/dev-run/$PROFILE'.

 USAGE: $0 [OPTION]
 
 OPTIONS:
-  -h Print this help usage info.
-  -p 'emqx' or 'emqx-enterprise', defaults to 'PROFILE' env.
-  -c Force recompile, otherwise starts with the already built libs

+  -r|--remsh [NAME]: Attach to running node's remote console.
 
 ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES:
-  PROFILE: Overriden by -p option, defaults to 'emqx'.
