Easy debugging with ipdb

My name is Kazuhiro Minomaki (https://qiita.com/mimaki_kazuhiro) and I am an intern at Future Electronic Technology. This time I will write about ipdb.

Since you are a beginner in programming, the content may be incorrect. If there are any mistakes, I will correct them so please point out more and more.

What is ipdb

It provides extensions to pdb, the standard debugger for Python. Debugging is the process of finding and correcting mistakes in a program. Then, install it first.

terminal


$ sudo pip install ipdb

Let's actually operate

Create a file with an appropriate name. This time I created a file called test.py.

test.py


import ipdb
print ("debug program")
a = 10 / 3
b = 10.3 / 3.4
ipdb.set_trace()
print (a,b)

Execute with the following command.

terminal


python3 -m ipdb test.py #file name

Then, on the screen below.

terminal


> /Users/mimakikazuhiro/Desktop/djangosw/test.py(1)<module>()
----> 1 import ipdb
      2 print ("debug program")
      3 a = 10 / 3

ipdb>

For the time being, press "h" to ask "what kind of function does it have?"

terminal


ipdb> h

Miscellaneous help topics:
==========================
exec  pdb

ipdb>

I'll push it in various ways.

terminal


ipdb> n                                                                        
> /Users/mimakikazuhiro/Desktop/djangosw/test.py(2)<module>()
      1 import ipdb
----> 2 print ("debug program")
      3 a = 10 / 3

terminal


ipdb> s                                                                        
debug program
> /Users/mimakikazuhiro/Desktop/djangosw/test.py(3)<module>()
      2 print ("debug program")
----> 3 a = 10 / 3
      4 b = 10.3 / 3.4

terminal


ipdb> q

End with "q". It seems that you can easily debug like this.
