refactor!(debugger): replace realgud with dape
BREAKING CHANGE: Anyone used to realgud will find it missing as of this commit. It's been replaced with Dape (see https://github.com/svaante/dape). This change was made because realgud's implementation was archaic and over-complicated, dap-mode requires lsp-mode (and has a lot of moving parts and points of failure), and dape is straight-forward by comparison; to set up and use. Note that dap-mode and dap-ui is now deprecated and will be removed in the future, but still remains behind the +lsp flag for backwards compatibility, at least until v3. This also adds a '<leader> d' prefix for debugger commands (except for vanilla users, who already have dape's prefix on 'C-x C-a')

|

* Description :unfold:
|
||||
Introduces a code debugger to Emacs, powered by [[doom-package:realgud]] or [[doom-package:dap-mode]] (LSP).
|
||||
|
||||
This document will help you to configure [[doom-package:dap-mode]] [[https://emacs-lsp.github.io/dap-mode/page/configuration/#native-debug-gdblldb][Native Debug(GDB/LLDB)]] as
|
||||
there is still not *enough* documentation for it.
|
||||
Turns Emacs into a debug adapter client, powered by [[doom-package:dape]]. The debug
|
||||
adapter protocol aims to establish a standardized interface and API for
|
||||
debuggers.
|
||||
|
||||
** Maintainers
|
||||
/This module has no dedicated maintainers./ [[doom-contrib-maintainer:][Become a maintainer?]]
|
||||
|
||||
** Module flags
|
||||
- +lsp ::
|
||||
Enable support for [[https://microsoft.github.io/debug-adapter-protocol/][Debug Adapter Protocol]] (DAP) debuggers.
|
||||
*(This flag is deprecated)* Installs [[doom-package:dap-mode]] and
|
||||
[[doom-package:dap-ui]]. Requires [[doom-module::tools lsp]] (not compatible with
|
||||
Eglot).
|
||||
|
||||
** Packages
|
||||
- [[doom-package:realgud]]
|
||||
- [[doom-package:realgud-trepan-ni]] if [[doom-module::lang javascript]]
|
||||
- [[doom-package:dape]]
|
||||
- if [[doom-module:+lsp]]
|
||||
- [[doom-package:dap-mode]]
|
||||
- [[doom-package:posframe]]
|
||||
- [[doom-package:posframe]]
|
||||
|
||||
** Hacks
|
||||
- Enables ~gdb-many-windows-mode~ in ~gdb-mode~ by default
|
||||
- Patches [[doom-package:realgud]] to open in a popup window. This causes realgud
|
||||
bindings to focus the command window.
|
||||
- Closes [[doom-package:realgud]]'s command buffer after the session ends.

||||

* Installation
|
||||
[[id:01cffea4-3329-45e2-a892-95a384ab2338][Enable this module in your ~doom!~ block.]]
|
||||
|
||||
Make sure all of these pre-requirements is in your ~$PATH~:
|
||||
- =nodejs=
|
||||
- =lldb= and =lldb-mi= (optional)
|
||||
- =gdb= (optional), requires =unzip=
|
||||
Then check out the [[https://github.com/svaante/dape?tab=readme-ov-file#supported-debug-adapters][install instructions for the debug adapters]] you want to work
|
||||
with.
|
||||
|
||||
If you are getting an error like ~Searching for program no such file or
|
||||
directory "node"~, then you need [[github:nodejs/node][nodejs]] ([[github:emacs-lsp/dap-mode/issues/79][emacs-lsp/dap-mode#79]]).
|
||||
|
||||
** Realgud debuggers
|
||||
*** lldb and lldb-mi
|
||||
This is optional if you want to debug with [[https:lldb.llvm.org][LLDB]]. Install lldb and [[github:lldb-tools/lldb-mi][lldb-mi]].
|
||||
|
||||
*** gdb
|
||||
This is optional if you want to debug with [[https:www.gnu.org/software/gdb/][GDB]]. Install gdb.
|
||||
|
||||
You will need ~unzip~ for ~dap-gdb-lldb-setup~. It downloads a VS-Code extension
|
||||
and it needs to extract compressed downloaded file.
|
||||
|
||||
You need this if you are having ~"wrong-type-argument stringp nil"~ error when
|
||||
calling ~dap-gdb-lldb-setup~. [[github:emacs-lsp/dap-mode/issues/313][See emacs-lsp/dap-mode#313]]

Run =M-x dap-cpptools-setup= to setup the adapter before using it the first

first time.

Needs [[https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/tree/main/lldb/tools/lldb-vscode][lldb-vscode]]. Install LLDB from your package manager. For example:

By default, DAP expects [[https://github.com/Microsoft/ptvsd][ptvsd]] as the Python debugger, but [[https://github.com/microsoft/debugpy][debugpy]] is
|

recommended. See [[*Configuration][Configuration]].
|

*installing ptvsd and debugpy:*

#+end_src* TODO Usage
|
||||
|
||||
* Usage
|
||||
Start a debugging session with ~M-x +debugger/start~ (bound to [[kbd:][SPC o d]] in evil).
|
||||
You'll be prompted to select a debugger preset if this is the first time you've
|
||||
used it. Otherwise, it will use the last preset automatically. Use the
|
||||
universal/prefix argument to invoke this prompt again: [[kbd:][SPC u SPC o d]] or [[kbd:][C-u C-c
|
||||
o d]]. The last used configuration is stored for each project individually.
|
||||
|
||||
~M-x +debugger/start-last~ starts the last used debug configuration, if it
|
||||
exists, and prints a message otherwise instead of offering a selection.
|
||||
|
||||
Once the session is started, it can be terminated by ~M-x +debugger/quit~ or by
|
||||
using the mode-specific way.

|

Dape's documentation will instruct you to install debug adapters to
|
||||
=$EMACSDIR/debug-adapters/=, but Doom uses =$DOOMDIR/debug-adapters/= instead!
|
||||
Alter [[var:][dape-adapter-dir]] to change this.

|

** dap-mode
|
||||
*** How to add a debug configuration
|
||||
1. Call ~dap-gdb-lldb-setup~ function.
|
||||
2. Use ~dap-debug-edit-template~ to configure debugging settings for your
|
||||
project. [[github:WebFreak001/code-debug/blob/master/package.json#L72][Available settings can be inspected here.]] Call ~eval-buffer~ to save
|
||||
your settings. *Don't save the file!*
|
||||
3. Call ~dap-debug~, select a configuration and start debugging.
|
||||
* Usage
|
||||
Start the debugger with ~M-x +debugger/start~ (bound to [[kbd:][<leader> o d]]). You'll be
|
||||
prompted to enter a debugger configuration to launch (use [[kbd:][<up>]]/[[kbd:][<down>]] to
|
||||
traverse your history of debugger configs).
|
||||
|
||||
*** dap-mode with ~+lsp~
|
||||
Intuitive and powerful debugging.
|
||||
|
||||
- Breakpoints
|
||||
- REPL
|
||||
- *local variable view:* Allows you to browse variables in the current stack
|
||||
frame.
|
||||
- *expressions:* Add expressions to either watch variables or generic
|
||||
expressions.
