Package: django-pdb-pudb
FORK!This is used in exactly the same way as the upstream fork, but it uses the MAGNIFICENT pudb library (https://github.com/inducer/pudb) to do postmortem.Status: I no longer actively use this project, and am only accepting bugfixes and django compatibility pull requests.Django PDBMake debugging Django easierAddingpdb.set_trace()to your source files every time you want to break into pdb sucks.Don’t do that.Do this.InstallationInstall using pip:pip install django-pdbAdd it to your settings.py.For Django before 1.7 it needs to be added AFTER any apps that override therunserverortestcommands (includes south and django.contrib.staticfiles).For Django after 1.7 it needs to be added BEFORE them.# Order is important and depends on your Django version.# With Django 1.7+ put it towards the beginning, otherwise towards the end.INSTALLED_APPS=(...'django_pdb',...)# Make sure to add PdbMiddleware after all other middleware.# PdbMiddleware only activates when settings.DEBUG is True.MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES=(...'django_pdb.middleware.PdbMiddleware',)Usagemanage.py runserverDrops into pdb at the start of a view if the URL includes apdbGET parameter.Drops into ipdb at the start of a view if the URL includes aipdbGET parameter.This behavior is only enabled ifsettings.DEBUG = True:bash: testproject/manage.py runserver
