New submission from Mario Corchero <marioc...@gmail.com>: Since PEP 338 we can run python modules as a script via `python -m module_name` but there is no way to run pdb on those (AFAIK).
The proposal is to add a new argument "-m" to the pdb module to allow users to run `python -m pdb -m my_module_name` This is especially useful when working on cli tools that use entrypoints in setup.py, as there is no other way to run them. I have a WIP here: https://github.com/mariocj89/cpython/commit/f47d1b779333657d7d87b21db841d5d3ad6cfa5c Haven't sent the PR as I am still polishing some issues. If it sounds like a good idea I'll clean it up and open the PR. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 307513 nosy: mariocj89 priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Run modules with pdb versions: Python 3.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue32206> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
