Flask-DebugToolbar
==================

This extension adds a toolbar overlay to Flask applications containing useful information for debugging.

.. image:: _static/example.gif

Installation
------------

Installing is simple with `pip`_::

    $ pip install flask-debugtoolbar

.. _pip: https://pip.pypa.io/


Usage
-----

Setting up the debug toolbar is simple::

    from flask import Flask
    from flask_debugtoolbar import DebugToolbarExtension

    app = Flask(__name__)

    # the toolbar is only enabled in debug mode:
    app.debug = True

    # set a 'SECRET_KEY' to enable the Flask session cookies
    app.config['SECRET_KEY'] = '<replace with a secret key>'

    toolbar = DebugToolbarExtension(app)


The toolbar will automatically be injected into HTML responses when debug mode
is on. In production, setting ``app.debug = False`` will disable the toolbar.

This extension also supports the Flask app factory pattern by separately
creating the toolbar and later initializing it for an app::

    toolbar = DebugToolbarExtension()
    # Then later on.
    app = create_app('the-config.cfg')
    toolbar.init_app(app)

Configuration
-------------

The toolbar support several configuration options:

====================================  =====================================   ==========================
Name                                  Description                             Default
====================================  =====================================   ==========================
``DEBUG_TB_ENABLED``                  Enable the toolbar?                     ``app.debug``
``DEBUG_TB_HOSTS``                    Whitelist of hosts to display toolbar   any host
``DEBUG_TB_ROUTES_HOST``              The host to associate with toolbar      ``None``
                                      routes (where its assets are served
                                      from), or the sentinel value `*` to
                                      serve from the same host as the
                                      current request (ie any host). This
                                      is only required if Flask is
                                      configured to use `host_matching`.
``DEBUG_TB_INTERCEPT_REDIRECTS``      Should intercept redirects?             ``True``
``DEBUG_TB_PANELS``                   List of module/class names of panels    enable all built-in panels
``DEBUG_TB_PROFILER_ENABLED``         Enable the profiler on all requests     ``False``, user-enabled
``DEBUG_TB_TEMPLATE_EDITOR_ENABLED``  Enable the template editor              ``False``
``DEBUG_TB_PROFILER_DUMP_FILENAME``   Filename of the profiler stats dump,    ``None``, no dump will be written
                                      can be a ``str`` or a ``callable``
====================================  =====================================   ==========================

To change one of the config options, set it in the Flask app's config like::

    app.config['DEBUG_TB_INTERCEPT_REDIRECTS'] = False
