debugging a uwsgi python application using pycharm

Question

Is it possible to debug a uwsgi application using an ide like PyCharm? I can debug flask based apps fine by running them directly from pycharm but cannot even run a uwsgi ap

Answer 1

Not sure how to interpret your question, as you are mixing apples and oranges. Flask is a framework, uWSGI is an application server. I'll try to answer, though.

As far as I know, uWSGI is not pure python, so debugging it in PyCharm will not be trivial, if even it is possible.

However, since you are using uWSGI to run your application, I'm assuming it complies with the WSGI protocol. In that case, for debugging purposes, you can alternatively run it from a simple pure-python application engine like wsgiref.simple_server.WSGIServer.
