Debugging macros in Visual Studio Code

- In FreeCAD's Python console:
import ptvsd
ptvsd.enable_attach(address=('localhost', 5678))
- In Visual Studio Code, "Run and Debug (Ctrl+Shift+D)", "Add Configuration...", "Python", "Attach". The configuration should look like this:
{
"configurations": [
{
"name": "Python: Remote Attach",
"type": "python",
"request": "attach",
"connect": {
"host": "localhost",
"port": 5678
},
"pathMappings": [
{
"localRoot": "${workspaceFolder}",
"remoteRoot": "${workspaceFolder}"
}
],
"justMyCode": true
}
]
}
Note the port 5678 that is used in both applications.
More details on FreeCAD's wiki but the remoteRoot
there doesn't work and setting it to a hard-coded path is not practical.
Alternatively, you can use debugpy
in FreeCAD:
import debugpy
debugpy.configure(python="python")
debugpy.listen(5678)
