envFile: path to the file containing your environment variables.from iqoptionapi. cwd: current working directory this tells the debugger where to find your modules Is there a way to set a breakpoint in library and debug step by step in visual studio code For example, TestApi.py.program: file to run when starting the debugger.The important attributes here are program, module, cwd and envFile:

Step 2 On extension windows as shown below search for an extension named python in the search text box. Step 1 Launch Visual Studio Code and click on the Extensions button which is highlighted on the screen below. Here are the steps to configure Visual Studio Code as IDE for Python. To do it, open vscode's debug tool and add a new configuration. In this short tutorial I want to show you how to debug Python scripts with VSCode. Configure Visual Studio Code as IDE for Python. To fix it, the first thing I needed to do was to tell vscode to start running my code as if I was running it from the command line as a module. Therefore, relative imports stop working as well. This debugger mode runs your file as the root and, by doing so, it completely loses information about the modules on the same folder and above. The thing is, I failed to understand that I was using vscode's current file debugger. In this file, we need to tell VS Code that there are two ways we want to run the debugger: (1) for the Python script, on launching the file and (2) for the C++ portion, we want to attach that to a Python debugger process that’s already going. Now I pretty like it! :) A good post on how import works with python can be found here. The launch.json file is used to configure the debugger in VS Code. Well, at least that's what I thought at that time. What was happening? I didn't know by then, but I got caught on python's " import hell". What would happen is, I would fix the debugging imports, but only to realize I broke it while trying to run the package from the command line, and vice-versa. I knew I was doing something really wrong. And while I learned a lot on how to import modules from reading some well-known python packages/frameworks ( requests, django, scrapy, flask, and others), I frequently found myself changing the way I imported modules in order to get the debugging tool working properly. The thing is, I wanted my code to be contained within a python package composed of modules to make it reusable elsewhere. But, at the beginning, I was using it the wrong way, completely. I can't stress enough how much I have learned and how my learning process has improved since I learned how to use Visual Studio Code (vscode) debugging capabilities.īeing able to add some new piece of code and press F5 to debug it almost instantaneously was a breeze.
