Debugging Application Errors

In Production

Do not run the development server, or enable the built-in debugger, in a production environment. The debugger allows executing arbitrary Python code from the browser. It’s protected by a pin, but that should not be relied on for security.

Use an error logging tool, such as Sentry, as described below, or enable logging and access them via your system or Kubernetes log tool of choice.

If you have access to the server, you could add some code to start an external debugger if request.remote_addr matches your IP. Some IDE debuggers also have a remote mode so breakpoints on the server can be interacted with locally. Only enable a debugger temporarily.
