Using idea to remote debug ansible container
Recent changes to ansible-container codebase allow contributors to use their IDE to do step by step tracing of the ansible-container code with help remote debugging.
In order to activate this possibility you need
a) Server side remote debugging helper pycharm-debug.egg
in the root of your repo. It is distributed as part of PyCharm in its debug-eggs directory. See https://www.jetbrains.com/help/pycharm/remote-debugging.html for additional details
b) Create python remote debug configuration, call it "conductor" with following parameters:
hostname: host.docker.internal
port: 55507
port mappings: =/_ansible
Per code below https://github.com/ansible/ansible-container/pull/949/files#diff-5aa273573aa8d18556fb9fe77678a9e9R13 , in case if environment variable REMOTE_DEBUGGING
is set, you will
get debugger available.
c) Create local debugging configuration for play you are working on
Script path: /_ansible_container.py
Parameters: --debug build
Working directory: path to project with issue, like /mnt/hdd/home/slavko/softasap/opensource/ac-bug-944-poc/site1
where _ansible-container.py is script like
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import re
import sys
from container.cli import host_commandline
if __name__ == '__main__':
sys.argv[0] = re.sub(r'(-script\.pyw?|\.exe)?$', '', sys.argv[0])
sys.exit(host_commandline())
