Post-Mortem Python Plotting

Python | Tutorial

The extract function copies the local variables from the current function frame into the existing Jupyter session. If the Python code crashes, you can enter the debugger with the %debug magic and then use the extract function to copy the variables from the function frame into the Jupyter session. The variables can now be properly inspected, e.g., plotted.

The original URI above contains more details how to use this post-mortem debugging.

def extract(source=None):
    """Copies the variables of the caller up to iPython. Useful for debugging.

        def f():
            x = 'hello world'
            extract()

        f() # raises an error

        print(x) # prints 'hello world'

pdoc: API Documentation for Python Projects

https://pdoc.dev/

Python | Tool

pdoc is a Python API documentation generation, which turns doc-strings and type annotations into a simple and elegant documentation.

pdoc auto-generates API documentation that follows your project's Python module hierarchy. It requires no configuration, has first-class support for type annotations, cross-links between identifiers, comes with an integrated live-reloading web server, uses customizable HTML templates, understands numpydoc and Google-style docstrings, and is permissively licensed.
