Hello,

I can't manage to debug Home Assistant within Pycharm or Liclipse. 
Could you please explain me how to do that?
Do I need to use another debugger?

In the meantime, thank you for making this great project!

Regards,

Gaël

I think Python debuggers (pdb at least) doesn't wprk very well in multi thread aplications

I do this :
import IPython
IPython.embed()

Will get you a console at that location

OK, thanks.
Could you tell me how you manage Home Assistant debugging then? I like discovering a new project by debugging step by step while the application is running.

A good place to get started is the documentation. Have a look at the architecture: https://home-assistant.io/developers/architecture.html

The log will also show you a timeline of when each action occurred.
