[IPython-User] nose-ipdb

[jelle]

Hi,

There is a pretty cool plugin for nose "nose-ipdb".
(https://github.com/flavioamieiro/nose-ipdb)

Which starts up a ipython sugar coated pdb shell, there where 
you're unittest failed. Very practical indeed!

It would be cool to refactor it such that it doesn't require ipdb
( a < 20 line dependency ). What bothers me is that just the python
 keywords are completed;however, not the variables.

It does something like this:

   ip = ipapi.get()
   p = ipdb.Pdb(ip.options.colors)
   p.reset()
   p.interaction(None, tb)

Is there any chance that the locals() and globals() will be used in
 completion? I've been sifting through the IPython code for a while
 now but haven't managed to figure it out.

Thanks,
