For more information, see documentation.
Just
pip install devtools
If you've got python 3.7+ and pip
installed, you're good to go.
from devtools import debug
whatever = [1, 2, 3]
debug(whatever)
Outputs:
test.py:4 <module>:
whatever: [1, 2, 3] (list)
That's only the tip of the iceberg, for example:
import numpy as np
data = {
'foo': np.array(range(20)),
'bar': {'apple', 'banana', 'carrot', 'grapefruit'},
'spam': [{'a': i, 'b': (i for i in range(3))} for i in range(3)],
'sentence': 'this is just a boring sentence.\n' * 4
}
debug(data)
outputs:
devtools can be used without from devtools import debug
if you add debug
into __builtins__
in sitecustomize.py
.
For instructions on adding debug
to __builtins__
,
see the installation docs.
