Does anybody debug flask application in vim using this one for example. What I want: I want to set break point in controller method for example
def login():
(breakpoint)>> some code
...
...
Somehow run flask app and when I send for example login form stop on this breakpoint and debug source code.
Thanks.
Do you know about Python debbuger? You can set breakpoints anywhere in your code using this line:
import pdb; pdb.set_trace()
If you're using vim, you might like this shortcut as well:
:ia pdb import pdb; pdb.set_trace()<ESC>
Below is the relevant parts of my setup that allows me to press F7 on a line and get a pdb.set_trace() line inserted. Shift+F7 removes it again. The debugging itself happens outside of vim (on the command-line where the program is executed), but has never let me down.
This implementation requires the brilliant ipdb, but should be easy enough to modify if/as necessary.
~/.vim/ftplugin/python/python.vim:
...
map <S-F7> :py RemoveBreakpoints()<CR>
map <F7> :py SetBreakpoint()<CR>
...
~/.vim/ftplugin/python/custom.py:
...
def SetBreakpoint():
nLine = int( vim.eval('line(".")') )
strLine = vim.current.line
strWhite = re.search('^(\s*)', strLine).group(1)
vim.current.buffer.append(
(
"%(space)spdb.set_trace() %(mark)s Breakpoint %(mark)s" %
{'space': strWhite, 'mark': '#' * 30}
),
nLine - 1
)
for strLine in vim.current.buffer:
if strLine == "import ipdb as pdb":
break
else:
vim.current.buffer.append('import ipdb as pdb', 2)
vim.command('normal j1')
vim.command('write')
def RemoveBreakpoints():
nCurrentLine = int( vim.eval('line(".")') )
nLines = []
nLine = 1
for strLine in vim.current.buffer:
if strLine == 'import ipdb as pdb' or strLine.lstrip().startswith('pdb.set_trace()'):
nLines.append(nLine)
nLine += 1
nLines.reverse()
for nLine in nLines:
vim.command('normal %dG' % nLine)
vim.command('normal dd')
if nLine < nCurrentLine:
nCurrentLine -= 1
vim.command('normal %dG' % nCurrentLine)
vim.command('write')
...
