pudb1

Full-screen, console-based python3 debugger

Usage

pudb [options] script-to-run [script-arguments]

Overview

This manual page documents briefly the pudb command.

PuDB is a full-screen, console-based visual debugger for Python.

Its goal is to provide all the niceties of modern GUI-based debuggers in a more lightweight and keyboard-friendly package. PuDB allows you to debug code right where you write and test it -- in a terminal. If you've worked with the excellent (but nowadays ancient) DOS-based Turbo Pascal or C tools, PuDB's UI might look familiar.

Options

-h, --help

Show summary of options.

-c, --continue

Let the script run until an exception occurs or a breakpoint is hit.

-s, --steal-output
-m, --module

Debug as module or package instead of as a script.

--pre-run=COMMAND

run COMMAND before each program run

-v, --version

Show program's version number and exit.
