Debugger

Notes

Debugger Engine: debase or ruby-debug-base ⇒ Backend (Read more)

IDE: RubyMine, VS Code, Eclipse ⇒ Frontend

Ruby Debugger: - pry - byebug - ruby/debug

ruby-debug-ide ⇒ Ruby Debugger - Protocol to establish communication between them.

Redirect commands from IDE to the debugger engine answers and events

Debug Adapter - ‘gadgets’: The Debug Adapter Protocol defines the protocol used between an editor or IDE and a debugger or runtime. https://microsoft.github.io/debug-adapter-protocol/

• python: https://github.com/microsoft/debugpy

Vimspector: ‘middle man’ that talks to a debugger. provides a standard protocol to communicate with different debuggers. With Vimspector, you can communicate the same way with a Node debugger, Python debugger, Go debugger, etc.

2 mode: Attach vs Launch Launch: Chạy debugger trên chính running process attach: Chạy rails process, sau đó attach Vimspector vào. (file config sẽ bỏ phần programs và args)

rdebug-ide --host 0.0.0.0 --port 1234 --dispatcher-port 1234 -- bin/rails s

This will launch the ruby-debug-ide program

A debug adapter is a program that can communicate with a debugger UI using the Debug Adapter Protocol. An adapter can act as a bridge between the UI and a separate debugger (such as GDB or LLDB), or can be a debugger in and of itself (such as “vsdbg”, which supports CoreCLR debugging on Linux and macOS).

Cần 2 cái:

1. A relevant gadget: Debug adapter: https://github.com/puremourning/vimspector#supported-languages
2. Vimspector config file

{
  "configurations": {
    "run": {
      "adapter": "vscode-node",
      "breakpoints": {
        "exception": {
          "all": "N",
          "uncaught": "N"
        }
      },
      "configuration": {
        "request": "launch",
        "protocol": "auto",
        "stopOnEntry": true,
        "console": "integratedTerminal",
        "program": "${workspaceRoot}/simple.js",
        "cwd": "${workspaceRoot}"
      }
    }
  }
}
 
{
  "configurations": {
    "Python: Launch": {
      "adapter": "debugpy",
      "filetypes": [ "python" ],
      "breakpoints": {
        "exception": {
          "caught": "N",
          "uncaught": "Y"
        }
      },
      "configuration": {
        "name": "Python: Launch",
        "type": "python",
        "request": "launch",
        "cwd": "${fileDirname}",
        "python": "${workspaceRoot}/.venv/bin/python",
        "stopOnEntry": false,
        "console": "externalTerminal",
        "debugOptions": [],
        "module": "dynatrace_account_exporter",
        "env": {
          "PYTHONPATH": "${workspaceRoot}"

To traverse through the file, you can either:

1. Step out (steps out of the scope)
2. Step into (steps into the function scope)
3. Step over (steps to the next line, in scope) - Next 1 step

Here are the key maps that I use. Note that I use hlj keys similar to the Vim movement keys.

nmap <Leader>dh <Plug>VimspectorStepOut
nmap <Leader>dl <Plug>VimspectorStepInto
nmap <Leader>dj <Plug>VimspectorStepOver

If you are not sure what stepping out, stepping into, and stepping over are, I found these short video tutorials very helpful:

1. Variables window
2. Watch window: Watch for specific values.
3. Stack Trace window
4. Console window
5. Terminal window
