Simplify Debugging Python Nodes in Dynamo 🚀

[gswifort]

There may be some Dynamo for Revit users here too..

Introducing Dynamo Python Node Debugger, a tool designed to make debugging Python nodes easier, faster, and more efficient. Whether you’re working on complex scripts or just starting out, this tool integrates seamlessly with Visual Studio Code to give you full control over your Python code.

What does it do?

• Extracts Python nodes from your Dynamo .dyn files and creates temporary Python files for debugging.
• Generates a temporary project with all necessary configurations, including a launch.json file for Visual Studio Code.
• Automatically overwrites the Python nodes in your Dynamo script to execute the temporary (generated) Python modules, ensuring your debugging session uses the exact code you are editing and stepping through in Visual Studio Code.

@CEXT-Dan, am I to understand that you are using Revit/Dynamo?

I’ve never used it, though I was under the impression that the API is .NET and not CPython
