PyDebugShell

A python module which can be used to interrupt a script and inspect running objects or self destruct a run-away script

Strike Ctrl+\ during execution of any python script which utilizes this module to get to an interactive pythgon shell and inspect local/global objects:

===[ COMMANDS ]===

List Objects:
   report
   report more
   dir()
   locals()
   globals()
Inspect a specific object:
   debug.ObjSize.getSize( obj )
   debug.showObj( obj )
Process Information:
   proc
Test the self destruct:
   stress test

Debug Shell.
>>> 

Import the debug module and add a specific try/except anywhere in your code:

import debug
import time

def main():

  try:
  
    while True:
      ...
      ...

  except debug.DebugException:
    exec debug.normalHandler
        
  except debug.SelfDestructException, message:
      print message
      
  finally:
    debug.selfDestructThread.stop()
    debug.selfDestructThread.join()

Or use the given decorator on a long running method:

@debug.DebugSession(globals())
def main():
  ...
  ...

main()

If the CPU utilization goes beyond 10% for a long enough duration, or memory utilization spikes above 1024MB then the process will automatically killed and show this message:

Proc 19008 killed because it took up too many resources!
CPU Percent [Cur/Avg/Threshold]: 17.7  /  4.25  /  10.0
Mem KBytes  [Cur/Avg/Threshold]: 180612.0  /  102968.8  /  102400.0
