How to debug PyDev GAE project on localhost?

Question

How does one simply print out a small string or inspect when running the local Google App Engine server out of Eclipse to debug a PyDev GAE project?

I tried solutions such as this , but I am not able to find the logs in the local admin console, nor are they appearing in my Eclipse console.

PyDev breakpoints do not seem to be hit either, even when I use "Debug As.."

What's the best way to go about this?

Answer 1

Add this

import pdb;pdb.set_trace()

just after the place you want breakpoints. Then use print statement from terminal to print whatever you what to print. You can also use pprint.
