The debug module contains utilities and functions for better debugging Evy-powered applications.
Install a trace hook which writes incredibly detailed logs about what code is being executed to stdout.
Remove the trace hook installed by spew.
Returns a formatted string of the current listeners on the current hub. This can be useful in determining what’s going on in the event system, especially when used in conjunction with hub_listener_stacks().
Returns a formatted string of the current timers on the current hub. This can be useful in determining what’s going on in the event system, especially when used in conjunction with hub_timer_stacks().
Toggles whether or not the hub records the stack when clients register listeners on file descriptors. This can be useful when trying to figure out what the hub is up to at any given moment. To inspect the stacks of the current listeners, call format_hub_listeners() at critical junctures in the application logic.
Toggles whether the hub prints exceptions that are raised from its timers. This can be useful to see how greenthreads are terminating.
Toggles whether tpool itself prints exceptions that are raised from functions that are executed in it, in addition to raising them like it normally does.
Toggles whether or not the hub records the stack when timers are set. To inspect the stacks of the current timers, call format_hub_timers() at critical junctures in the application logic.
Toggles whether Evy makes an effort to detect blocking behavior in an application.
It does this by telling the kernel to raise a SIGALARM after a short timeout, and clearing the timeout every time the hub greenlet is resumed. Therefore, any code that runs for a long time without yielding to the hub will get interrupted by the blocking detector (don’t use it in production!).
The resolution argument governs how long the SIGALARM timeout waits in seconds. If on Python 2.6 or later, the implementation uses signal.setitimer() and can be specified as a floating-point value. On 2.5 or earlier, 1 second is the minimum. The shorter the resolution, the greater the chance of false positives.
