Overview

pydebugviz captures your Python function’s execution step-by-step and lets you explore it in:

• Jupyter
• Terminal (CLI)
• IDEs

Now in v1.0.0:

• ✅ DebugSession interactive navigator
• ✅ live_watch() for real-time variable display
• ✅ show_summary() for CLI/Jupyter-friendly overview
• ✅ export_html() for trace visualization
• ✅ Validation tools, safe evaluation, and large var protection

Quick Start

from pydebugviz import debug, show_summary

def test():
    x = 0
    for i in range(4):
        x += i
    return x

trace = debug(test, breakpoints=["x > 3"], max_steps=100)
show_summary(trace)

---

Interactive DebugSession

from pydebugviz import DebugSession

session = DebugSession(trace)
session.jump_to(3)
print(session.current())
session.show_summary()

---

Live Watch Mode

from pydebugviz import live_watch

def my_function():
    x = 1
    for i in range(3): x += i

live_watch(my_function, watch=["x", "i"], interval=0.1)

---

Export HTML

from pydebugviz import export_html

export_html(trace, filepath="trace_output.html")

---

Validation + Safe Eval

from pydebugviz import validate_expressions, safe_eval

print(validate_expressions(["x > 3", "bad =="]))   # syntax check
print(safe_eval("x > 5", {"x": 7}))                # safely evaluate

---

Trace Schema Enforcement

from pydebugviz import normalize_trace, check_trace_schema

normalized = normalize_trace(trace)
issues = check_trace_schema(normalized)
print("Schema issues:", issues)
