pyramid_debugtoolbar provides a debug toolbar useful while you're developing your Pyramid application.

This code requires Pyramid 1.2a1 or better.

Note that pyramid_debugtoolbar is a blatant rip-off of Michael van Tellingen's flask-debugtoolbar (which itself was derived from Rob Hudson's django-debugtoolbar). It also includes a lightly sanded down version of the Werkzeug debugger code by Armin Ronacher and team.

For a demonstration:

• Create a virtualenv:

  $ VENV=$(pwd)/venv # just set the path to our virtualenv
  $ virtualenv --python=python2.7 $VENV
  

• Clone the Pyramid trunk:

  $ git clone https://github.com/Pylons/pyramid.git
  

• Install the Pyramid trunk into the virtualenv:

  $ cd pyramid
  $ $VENV/bin/python setup.py develop
  

• Clone the pyramid_debugtoolbar trunk:

  $ git clone https://github.com/Pylons/pyramid_debugtoolbar.git
  

• Install the pyramid_debugtoolbar trunk into the virtualenv:

  $ cd pyramid_debugtoolbar
  $ $VENV/bin/python setup.py develop
  

• Install the pyramid_debugtoolbar/demo package into the virtualenv:

  $ cd demo
  $ $VENV/bin/python setup.py develop
  

• Run the pyramid_debugtoolbar package's demo/demo.py file using the virtualenv's Python:

  $ $VENV/bin/python demo.py
