debugpy VS Visual Studio Code

debugpy description from it's repository:

I'd love to see what it can do with https://github.com/microsoft/debugpy - and especially how it would handle vendored dependencies.

I read that nvim-dap-python uses debugpy which has all these configuration parameters of which one of them is `cwd` which represents the "absolute path to the working directory of the program being debugged".

Hey all, I'm not sure if this is normal or not but, when debugging with nvim-dap, nvim-dap-ui, and nvim-dap-python (which uses debugpy) over a remote session, dap runs exactly once and then closes the entire process. This even happens when I just call `require("dap").restart()`. It's pretty frustrating to deal with and is not something that I was used to when I used to debug with vimspector, which let me restart the debug remotely as many times as I wanted without killing the application that I was connected to. Is this happening for anyone else? How do I disable it? I didn't see anything in debugpy's configuration options. I'm rereading dap's vim :help but haven't found any mention of auto-close / terminate logic yet.

After testing I have the same situation. I reported this issue on GitHub, you can follow up.

vim.fn.sign_define('DapBreakpoint', {text='🛑', texthl='', linehl='', numhl=''}) dap.configurations.python = { { -- The first three options are required by nvim-dap type = 'python'; -- the type here established the link to the adapter definition: `dap.adapters.python` request = 'launch'; name = "Launch file"; -- Options below are for debugpy, see https://github.com/microsoft/debugpy/wiki/Debug-configuration-settings for supported options program = "${file}"; -- This configuration will launch the current file if used. pythonPath = function() -- debugpy supports launching an application with a different interpreter then the one used to launch debugpy itself. -- The code below looks for a `venv` or `.venv` folder in the current directly and uses the python within. -- You could adapt this - to for example use the `VIRTUAL_ENV` environment variable. return os.getenv("VIRTUAL_ENV") .. "/bin/python" or '/usr/bin/env python' end; }, }

You should take a look at DAP (Debug Adapter Protocol). There exist a Python module implementing this protocol (debugpy) and you can probably find some client applications that can hook into it (like this neovim plugin).

For beginners, the best code editor is Vscode.

An IDE or text editor; we'll use Visual Studio 2022 for this tutorial, but a lightweight IDE such as Visual Studio Code will work just as well

Choosing IDE: Selecting the right Integrated Development Environment (IDE) can make your coding experience smoother. Consider popular options like as PyCharm, Visual Studio Code, or Jupyter Notebook. Install your preferred IDE and configure it to work with Python.

It all starts with the editor. Visual Studio Code (VS Code) is my go-to editor. I was using the Insider’s Edition for the longest time, but some extensions would try to log in and redirect to VS Code regular edition, so I decided to go back to it. That said, VS Code Insider's is very stable.

Meanwhile, a developer workflow that does not require access to AWS Management Console may provide a better experience. As a developer, I appreciate having an integrated development environment (IDE) such as Visual Studio Code where I can code, deploy, and test in one place.

Good to know: If you're a Visual Studio Code user, you can enhance your coding experience by installing the ESLint and Prettier extensions. These extensions provide real-time error and warning highlighting, as well as automatic formatting and code fixing on save.

Download any code editor e.g. VS code. Visual Studio code which is a code editor with support for development operations like debugging, task running, and version control. Go to https://code.visualstudio.com

A code editor (VS Code is my go-to IDE), but feel free to use any code editor you're comfortable with.

First, grab your favorite command-line tool, Terminal or Warp, and a code editor, preferably VS Code and let’s begin.

C# is very good as a language, have developed in it for 5+ years. The problem is the gap between what MSFT promises to management and actually delivers to developers. You really really need to fully read the fine print, think of the omissions in documentation and implement a proof-of-concept that almost implements the full solution to find out the hidden gotchas.

For example, even probably their best product VS Code only got reasonable multiple screens support last year: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/10121#issuecommen...

And then, on the other end of the spectrum, you have Teams.
