Fixing PDB and TextMate for files with spaces in path

Tags:

January 7th, 2009 | Technology

There is a cool little glue package out there called PdbTextMateSupport that allows you to highlight the current line of python code as you debug it in PDB, python’s debugger. It works by sending URLs to textmate – however the python code does not escape spaces in the path, and if you are on OS X there is a decent chance that you have a folder somewhere along the way that might have a space… Here is the fix:

om os.path import exists
from os import system
import urllib

def mate(self):
    frame, lineno = self.stack[self.curindex]
    filename = self.canonic(frame.f_code.co_filename)
    f2 = urllib.quote(filename)
    if exists(filename):
        tm_url = 'txmt://open?url=file://%s&line=%d&column=2' % (f2, lineno)
        osa_cmd = 'tell application "TextMate" to get url "%s"' % tm_url
        system('osascript -e \'%s\'' % osa_cmd)

def preloop(self):
    mate(self)

def precmd(self, line):
    mate(self)
    return line
