Is it possible to use a debugger (e.g.

pdb

, the debugger in VSCode, or pycharm) with a plug-in?

I believe you can run pants under a debugger, yes, which would then include your plugin. Don't know out of head how it is done though..

I’m actually curious about how to achieve this. I’m experimenting with PyCharm but can’t figure out how to treat the Pants logic as Python code and step through the plugin.

can you not connect with your debugger to the pantsd pid?

I do this with PyCharm quite regularly, using remote debugging

I believe this works with

run

(

--run-debug-adapter

) and

test

(

--test-debug-adapter

) but what about plugins?
