Recover from autoreloading development servers ruining the terminal prompt #64

Closed jjmurre closed 4 months ago

jjmurre commented 4 months ago

When running a debug session (be it pdb, pdbpp or pdbp) and saving code in the editor, the autoreload of a development server (Flask Django) ruins the prompt of the terminal session, because the development server process is restarted.

This is not an pdbp issue, however maybe there is a way to mitigate this in some way an recover nicely from an autosave?

Since the original pdb has the same issue, and since it's probably happening in code that was unmodified from the original pdb, there's probably not much I can do in pdbp to fix it. Even if I found a possible way to fix it, I'm not sure how I would even go about testing the fix. Probably the best thing to do would be avoiding breakpoints during the time the server auto-reloads, if possible. Or maybe reach out to the pdb people directly, if they're available.
