I just thought I’d share my setup that I use for debugging Toolkit code. Note that I’m using the paid version of PyCharm in order to do this. I believe it should be possible with Visual Studio Code as well, and I may add details on that later if I can get it working. Why use a debugger? Using a deb…

Part 2 Visual Studio Code remote debugging So I managed to get the Visual Studio Code remote debugging working as well on Windows. I couldn’t get it to work on Mac, due to the fact that it refused to download a more recent version of the Python Extension than 2018.6.0 which has a bug that means it …

The “attach code” can be placed at top level in the module being debugged. When the remote module being debugged runs, it will silently stop at wait_for_attach. After that moment we need to press RUN twice, once to attach and again to continue the code to a breakpoint.

Thank you this works great. Got it working to debug python code running in RV with VS Code

This is indeed pretty cool! I haven’t had the chance to try ptvsd yet. I work in emacs, and had success with remote_pdb and realgud. Should write this up at some point.

This is great! Any suggestions on how to enable / disable remote debugging on-demand in ShotGrid? Where can I put some code to do it instead of adding the ptvsd.enable_attach() call in arbitrary files?

For those who are wondering how to debug on Visual Studio Code today (2023), since ptvsd is now deprecated, the current tool to use is microsoft/debugpy: An implementation of the Debug Adapter Protocol for Python (github.com) . Instructions are pretty much the same. I can add in step 6 that instead …

Thanks, that’s very nice. I gotta figure out a way to integrate it in emacs.

One year later I come back with an improved version of debugpy usage for vscode. Make sure you have the Python extension updated. import sys sys.path.append("C:/path/to/python-libs") import debugpy if not debugpy.is_client_connected(): debugpy.configure(python=r"C:\Program Files\Shotgun\Python3…

@jrapczak I run attach cmd directly from within apps console once it gets started. No need to insert it to the code at all. Of course you have to do it again if the app is restarted.
