ipdab

UNDER CONSTRUCTION

A Debug Adapter Protocol for the ipdb debugger.

Installation

pip install git+https://github.com/mvds314/ipdab.git

Or, clone the repository and install with:

pip install -e .

Usage

Just like ipdb, use ipdab in the code you want to debug:

print("Hello, world!")
print("Starting ipdab...")

import ipdab

ipdab.set_trace()

print("This will be debugged.")

TODO

• Add Neovim shortcuts
• Add support for j, as in jump
• Test or add support for return
• Test or add support for until
• Test on slower hardware
  • It seems that dapuit is timing out
  • Try to start it with fewer windows
• Create a pypi package
  • Update the documentation
  • Cleanup the repo
  • Write pipelines for publishing and such
• Create a Neovim plugin
• Write a blog post about debugging

Later

• Fix compatiblity with ipython 9.1.0 and higher, entering the debugger seems to break
• Check how ipdab works with module reloads
• Consider post mortem support

Nice

• Fix RuntimeError: cannot schedule new futures after shutdown when exiting ipdb with next (common issue)
