Debug

Debugging

assert
  • 可用在程式的條件測試
  • assert <condition>, <message> : 如果 condition 為 True，沒有作用；如果為 False，會產生錯誤，並顯示訊息
x = 5
assert x == 5, "x should be 5"

assert type(username) == str, "username must be a string"
prinf debugging
print("Processing {}".format(basename))
strace
# Installation on RHEL if it's not installed
yum install strace

# Tracing system calls made by a program
strace ./my-program.py
strace -o my-program.strace ./my-program

Crash

pdb

功能：

    設定程式中斷點 逐行檢查程式碼 檢查變數 以互動方式評估表達式 
    pdb3 myprog.py

    pdb-subcommands

      continue : 繼續執行直到異常的程式碼 print() : 輸出變數的內容 
      (Pdb) continue
...
(Pdb) print(row)

      Step 1: Set a breakpoint

      import pdb


def add_numbers(a, b):
    pdb.set_trace()  # This will set a breakpoint in the code
    result = a + b
    return result


print(add_numbers(3, 4))

      Setp 2: Enter the interactive debugger

        a (args): Show the arguments of the current function.

        b: Manually set a persistent breakpoint while in debugger.

        n (next): Execute the next line within the current function.

        s (step): Execute the current line and stop at the first possible occasion (e.g., in a function that is called).

        c (continue): Resume normal execution until the next breakpoint.

        p (print): Evaluate and print the expression, e.g., p variable_name will print the value of variable_name.

        Pp (pretty-print): Pretty-print the value of the expression.

        q (quit): Exit the debugger and terminate the program.

        r (return): Continue execution until the current function returns.

        tbreak: Manually set a temporary breakpoint that goes away once hit the first time.

        !: Prefix to execute an arbitrary Python command in the current environment, e.g., !variable_name = "new_value" will set variable_name to "new_value".

        Step 3: Inspect variables

        To inspect the variables, simply type the single character, p, then the variable name to see its current value. For instance, if you have a variable in your code named sentiment_score, just type p sentiment_score at the pdb prompt to inspect its value.

        Step 4: Modify variables

        A big advantage of pdb is that you can change the value of a variable directly in the debugger. For example, to change sentiment_score to 0.9, you'd type !sentiment_score = 0.9.

        To confirm these changes, use a or directly probe the value with p <value name>.

         Step 5: Exit the debugger

        When you’re done, simply enter q (quit) to exit the debugger and terminate the program.

        Post-mortem debugging

        python -m pdb your_script.py
