Hi Mat,
I'm using pdb with success.
1. in SDK comment out line: "sys.meta_path = [hook]" in
dev_appserver.py (Warning: this will disable hardened production-like
environment dev_appserver provides for your local app!)
2. use following code to put trace in your app:
def b():
import pdb, sys
sys.__stdout__.write('\a')
sys.__stdout__.flush()
debugger = pdb.Pdb(stdin=sys.__stdin__, stdout=sys.__stdout__)
debugger.set_trace(sys._getframe().f_back)
I have this function dbg module and small textmate snippet which puts:
import dbg;dbg.b() # where you want breakpoint
regards,
Antonin
Note: once I was able to use pdb without global sys.meta patch by
temporarily patching sys.meta in my main handler. This doesn't work
for me anymore (maybe some caching issues or some newly hardened parts
got into the way, I don't know I'm not a python pro)
You may also check FirePython for aid in debugging your app:
