ipdb support for webapp2 #121

Closed kishan3 closed 8 years ago

kishan3 commented 8 years ago

Hi guys I am coming django background I am unable to get into debugging mode as we do in django and flask.

I have installed ipdb using pip but my webapp2 application says ImportError: No module named ipdb .

I have also tried taking the app inside virtualenv (although its not necessary I guess ) still it doesn't work.

I didn't use ipdb, but pudb worked for me. Can you install it and put this into your codeimport pudb;pudb.set_trace()? Will it work?

@kishan3 are you using App Engine? It's quite possible that app engine is preventing using ipdb. Can you try using regular pdb?

kishan3 commented 8 years ago

@jon yes i tried pdb and it works. But as you know ipdb is much better. Any idea why ipdb is not supported ? I would like to contribute for this requirement.

I don't think webapp2 specifically is stopping you from using ipdb. Are you using app engine?

Yes i am using app engine. I get the error ImportError : No module named termios . I googled about it but termios issue is related to windows OS it seems. I use ubuntu.

mymtw commented 8 years ago

this is not windows related issue. gae trying to hide stdlib libraries. Issue not related with web framework. I would like to contribute for this requirement. Im afraid that they will not implement this

@mymtwcom any links to solve this specifically for Linux?

Unfortunately there's nothing we can do in this library to get ipdb to work in app engine. There's an issue on App Engine, I suggest starring it to let them know that this is a desired feature.

I'm closing this issue for now, but feel free to continue to discuss.
