pyramid-debugtoolbar 0.5

A package which provides an interactive HTML debugger for Pyramid application development

pyramid_debugtoolbar provides a debug toolbar useful while you’re developing your Pyramid application.

This code requires the Pyramid trunk (aka 1.1.1dev); no released version of Pyramid (e.g. 1.0 or 1.1) will run it.

Note that pyramid_debugtoolbar is a blatant rip-off of Michael van Tellingen’s flask-debugtoolbar (which itself was derived from Rob Hudson’s django-debugtoolbar). It also includes a lightly sanded down version of the Werkzeug debugger code by Armin Ronacher and team.

Demonstration

For a demonstration:

• Create a virtualenv:

  $ virtualenv2.6 --no-site-packages env26

• Clone the Pyramid trunk:

  $ git clone [e-mail]:Pylons/pyramid.git

• Install the Pyramid trunk into the virtualenv:

  $ cd pyramid
  $ $VENV/bin/python setup.py develop

• Clone the pyramid_debugtoolbar trunk:

  $ git clone [e-mail]:Pylons/pyramid_debugtoolbar.git

• Install the pyramid_debugtoolbar trunk into the virtualenv:

  $ cd pyramid_debugtoolbar
  $ $VENV/bin/python setup.py develop

• Install the pyramid_debugtoolbar/demo package into the virtualenv:

  $ cd demo
  $ $VENV/bin/python setup.py develop

• Run the pyramid_debugtoolbar package’s demo/demo.py file using the virtualenv’s Python:

  $ $VENV/bin/python demo.py

You will see a page full of test options to try when you visit http://localhost:8080.

0.5 (2011-08-18)

• The toolbar didn’t work under Windows due to usage of the resource module: https://github.com/Pylons/pyramid_debugtoolbar/issues/12

0.4 (2011-08-18)

• Change the default value for debugtoolbar.intercept_redirects to false. Rationale: it confuses people when first developing if the application they’re working on has a home page which does a redirection.

0.3 (2011-08-15)

• Request vars panel would cause a UnicodeDecodeError under some circumstances (see https://github.com/Pylons/pyramid_debugtoolbar/issues/9).

• Dynamicize URLs for SQLAlchemy subpanels.

• Require “pyramid>=1.2dev” for install; the trunk is now “1.2dev” instead of “1.1.1dev”.

• Requires trunk after 2011-08-14: WSGIHTTPException “prepare” method and alias param to add_tween, BeforeRender event has no “_system” attr.

• Fix memory leak.

• HTML HTTP exceptions now are rendered with the debug toolbar div.

• Added NotFound page to demo app and selenium tests.

0.2 (2011-08-07)

• Add SQLAlchemy “explain” and “select” pages (available from the SQLALchemy panel next to each query shown in the page).

• Requires newer Pyramid trunk (checked out on 2011-08-07 or later).

• Add a link to the SQLAlchemy demo page from the demo app index page.

0.1 (2011-07-30)

• Initial release.
