Any mistake takes a lot to debug (by opening splunkd.log) and fix .Plus there are a lot of typos and API misuse that go undetected into runtime problems. Being a beginner with Python I am wondering, is there any alternative available to optimize the developing/debuggin process ?</P> <P>Thanks</P> Tue, 01 Oct 2013 19:36:34 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Dev/Python-script-develop-debug-tools/m-p/78743#M1120 rantravee 2013-10-01T19:36:34Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Dev/Python-script-develop-debug-tools/m-p/78744#M1121 <P>Hi rantravee,</P> <P>being a Python beginner as well, I'm also using notepad++ and run the script like</P> <PRE><CODE>$SPLUNK_HOME/bin/splunk cmd python $PATH_TO_YOUR_SCRIPT </CODE></PRE> <P>In case of any error I got useful debug feedback so far.
