Classes

• if element is None, the interpreter is opened in a new dialog box (cf. module browser.widgets.dialog).
  Otherwise, element can be an existing DIV with attribute contenteditable in the page, or the attribute id of an existing content-editable DIV.
• if element is None, title is the title of the dialog box
• dictionaries globals and locals are the environment where the interpreter commands are executed (by default, empty dictionaries)
• rows and cols are the dimensions in number of characters
• default_css specifies if the CSS stylesheet provided by the module should be used. If the value is False, the styles defined in the HTML page are used (cf. "CSS style" below)

from interpreter import Interpreter

Interpreter()

Opens a dialog box with an interactive interpreter running in the program execution frames. This can be used for debugging purposes.

Note that opening an inspector does not block program execution, but the namespaces used in the inspector represent the state of the frames when it was opened.

For instance, in this example, the value of y in frame f is 8, not 9:

from interpreter import Inspector

def f(x):
  y = 8
  Inspector()
  y = 9

f(5)

    overflow-x: hidden;
