**[pdbp (Pdb+)](https://github.com/mdmintz/pdbp)** is an advanced console debugger for Python. It can be used as a drop-in replacement for [pdb](https://docs.python.org/3/library/pdb.html) and [pdbpp](https://github.com/pdbpp/pdbpp).
<p><b>pdbp (Pdb+)</b> makes Python debugging a lot easier (and more fun!)</p>
--------
## Installation:
```bash
pip install pdbp
```
Then add ``import pdbp`` to an ``__init__.py`` of your project, which will automatically make **``Pdb+``** the default debugger at breakpoints:
```python
import pdbp
```
(If using ``flake8`` for code-linting, you may want to add ``# noqa`` to that line):
```python
import pdbp # noqa
```
You can also make ``pdbp`` the default debugger by setting an environmental variable:
```bash
PYTHONBREAKPOINT=pdbp.set_trace
```
## Usage:
To trigger a breakpoint in your code with ``pytest``, add ``--trace`` (to start tests with a breakpoint) or ``--pdb`` (to trigger a breakpoint if a test fails).
To trigger a breakpoint from a pure ``python`` run, use:
```bash
python -m pdbp <script.py>
```
--------
Basic **``Pdb+``** console commands:
``n``, ``c``, ``s``, ``u``, ``d`` => ``next``, ``continue``, ``step``, ``up``, ``down``
(To learn more **Pdb+** console commands, type ``help`` in the **Pdb+** console and press ``Enter/Return``.)
--------
**``pdbp`` (Pdb+)** makes improvements to ``pdbpp`` so that it works in all environments. It also includes other bug-fixes. "Sticky" mode is the default option, which shows multiple lines of code while letting you see where you're going (while typing ``n`` + ``Enter``).
If you somehow reset ``pdb`` to Python's built-in version, you can always replace ``pdb`` with **``pdbp``** again as the default debugger by running this:
```python
import pdb
import pdbp
for key in pdbp.__dict__.keys():
pdb.__dict__[key] = pdbp.__dict__[key]
```
Here's how to customize **``pdbp``**/``pdb`` options if you don't like the default settings: (<i>Shown below are the default settings.</i>)
```python
import pdb
if hasattr(pdb, "DefaultConfig"):
pdb.DefaultConfig.filename_color = pdb.Color.fuchsia
pdb.DefaultConfig.line_number_color = pdb.Color.turquoise
pdb.DefaultConfig.truncate_long_lines = False
pdb.DefaultConfig.sticky_by_default = True
```
You can also trigger **``Pdb+``** activation like this:
```python
import pdbp
pdbp.set_trace()
```

### Post Mortem Debug Mode:

### The ``where`` / ``w`` command, which displays the current stack:

--------
### Sticky Mode vs Non-Sticky Mode:
The default mode (``sticky``) lets you see a lot more lines of code from the debugger when active. In Non-Sticky mode, only one line of code is shown at a time. You can switch between the two modes by typing ``sticky`` in the **Pdb+** console prompt and pressing ``Enter/Return``.
> **Sticky Mode:**

> **Non-Sticky Mode:**
<img width="600" alt="Pdb+ Non-Sticky Mode" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/6788579/204890164-8465bc22-0f20-43f1-8ab7-b4316718a4c6.png">
--------
### Tab completion:
