Python (**py**) [**gdb**](https://www.gnu.org/software/gdb/) machine interface [(**mi**)](https://sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb/GDB_002fMI.html)
> GDB/MI is a line based machine oriented text interface to GDB and is activated by specifying using the --interpreter command line option (see Mode Options). It is specifically intended to support the development of systems which use the debugger as just one small component of a larger system.
## What's in the box?
1.  A function to parse gdb machine interface string output and return structured data types (Python dicts) that are JSON serializable. Useful for writing the backend to a gdb frontend. For example, [gdbgui](https://github.com/cs01/gdbgui) uses pygdbmi on the backend.
2.  A Python class to control and interact with gdb as a subprocess
To get [machine interface](https://sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb/GDB_002fMI.html) output from gdb, run gdb with the `--interpreter=mi2` flag like so:
```
gdb --interpreter=mi2
```
## Installation
    pip install pygdbmi
## Compatibility
### Operating Systems
Cross platform support for Linux, macOS and Windows
- Linux/Unix
  Ubuntu 14.04 and 16.04 have been tested to work. Other versions likely work as well.
- macOS
  Note: the error `please check gdb is codesigned - see taskgated(8)` can be fixed by codesigning gdb with [these instructions](http://andresabino.com/2015/04/14/codesign-gdb-on-mac-os-x-yosemite-10-10-2/). If the error is not fixed, please [create an issue in github](https://github.com/cs01/pygdbmi/issues).
- Windows
  Windows 10 has been tested to work with MinGW and cygwin.
### gdb versions
- gdb 7.6+ has been tested. Older versions may work as well.
## Examples
gdb mi defines a syntax for its output that is suitable for machine readability and scripting: [example output](https://sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb/GDB_002fMI-Simple-Examples.html#GDB_002fMI-Simple-Examples):
```
-> -break-insert main
<- ^done,bkpt={number="1",type="breakpoint",disp="keep",
enabled="y",addr="0x08048564",func="main",file="myprog.c",
fullname="/home/myprog.c",line="68",thread-groups=["i1"],
times="0"}
<- (gdb)
```
Use `pygdbmi.gdbmiparser.parse_response` to turn that string output into a JSON serializable dictionary
```python
from pygdbmi import gdbmiparser
from pprint import pprint
response = gdbmiparser.parse_response('^done,bkpt={number="1",type="breakpoint",disp="keep", enabled="y",addr="0x08048564",func="main",file="myprog.c",fullname="/home/myprog.c",line="68",thread-groups=["i1"],times="0"')
pprint(response)
pprint(response)
# Prints:
# {'message': 'done',
#  'payload': {'bkpt': {'addr': '0x08048564',
#                       'disp': 'keep',
#                       'enabled': 'y',
#                       'file': 'myprog.c',
#                       'fullname': '/home/myprog.c',
#                       'func': 'main',
#                       'line': '68',
#                       'number': '1',
#                       'thread-groups': ['i1'],
#                       'times': '0',
#                       'type': 'breakpoint'}},
#  'token': None,
#  'type': 'result'}
```
## Programmatic Control Over gdb
But how do you get the gdb output into Python in the first place? If you want, `pygdbmi` also has a class to control gdb as subprocess. You can write commands, and get structured output back:
```python
from pygdbmi.gdbcontroller import GdbController
from pprint import pprint
# Start gdb process
gdbmi = GdbController()
print(gdbmi.command)  # print actual command run as subprocess
# Load binary a.out and get structured response
response = gdbmi.write('-file-exec-file a.out')
pprint(response)
# Prints:
# [{'message': 'thread-group-added',
#   'payload': {'id': 'i1'},
#   'stream': 'stdout',
#   'token': None,
#   'type': 'notify'},
#  {'message': 'done',
#   'payload': None,
#   'stream': 'stdout',
#   'token': None,
#   'type': 'result'}]
```
Now do whatever you want with gdb. All gdb commands, as well as gdb [machine interface commands](<(https://sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb/GDB_002fMI-Input-Syntax.html#GDB_002fMI-Input-Syntax)>) are acceptable. gdb mi commands give better structured output that is machine readable, rather than gdb console output. mi commands begin with a `-`.
```python
response = gdbmi.write('-break-insert main')  # machine interface (MI) commands start with a '-'
response = gdbmi.write('break main')  # normal gdb commands work too, but the return value is slightly different
response = gdbmi.write('-exec-run')
response = gdbmi.write('run')
response = gdbmi.write('-exec-next', timeout_sec=0.1)  # the wait time can be modified from the default of 1 second
response = gdbmi.write('next')
response = gdbmi.write('next', raise_error_on_timeout=False)
response = gdbmi.write('next', raise_error_on_timeout=True, timeout_sec=0.01)
response = gdbmi.write('-exec-continue')
response = gdbmi.send_signal_to_gdb('SIGKILL')  # name of signal is okay
response = gdbmi.send_signal_to_gdb(2)  # value of signal is okay too
response = gdbmi.interrupt_gdb()  # sends SIGINT to gdb
response = gdbmi.write('continue')
response = gdbmi.exit()
```
## Parsed Output Format
Each parsed gdb response consists of a list of dictionaries. Each dictionary has keys `message`, `payload`, `token`, and `type`.
- `message` contains a textual message from gdb, which is not always present. When missing, this is `None`.
- `payload` contains the content of gdb's output, which can contain any of the following: `dictionary`, `list`, `string`. This too is not always present, and can be `None` depending on the response.
- `token` If an input command was prefixed with a (optional) token then the corresponding output for that command will also be prefixed by that same token. This field is only present for pygdbmi output types `nofity` and `result`. When missing, this is `None`.
The `type` is defined based on gdb's various [mi output record types](<(https://sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb/GDB_002fMI-Output-Records.html#GDB_002fMI-Output-Records)>), and can be
- `result` - the result of a gdb command, such as `done`, `running`, `error`, etc.
- `notify` - additional async changes that have occurred, such as breakpoint modified
- `console` - textual responses to cli commands
- `log` - debugging messages from gdb's internals
- `output` - output from target
- `target` - output from remote target
- `done` - when gdb has finished its output
## Contributing
Documentation fixes, bug fixes, performance improvements, and functional improvements are welcome. You may want to create an issue before beginning work to make sure I am interested in merging it to the master branch.
pygdbmi uses [nox](https://github.com/theacodes/nox) for automation.
See available tasks with
```
nox -l
```
Run tests and lint with
```
nox -s tests
nox -s lint
```
Positional arguments passed to `nox -s tests` are passed directly to `pytest`. For instance, to run only the parse tests use
```
nox -s tests -- tests/test_gdbmiparser.py
```
See [`pytest`'s documentation](https://docs.pytest.org/) for more details on how to run tests.
To format code using the correct settings use
```
nox -s format
```
Or, to format only specified files, use
```
nox -s format -- example.py pygdbmi/IoManager.py
```
### Making a release
Only maintainers of the [pygdbmi package on PyPi](https://pypi.org/project/pygdbmi/) can make a release.
In the following steps, replace these strings with the correct values:
- `<REMOTE>` is the name of the remote for the main pygdbmi repository (for instance, `origin`)
- `<VERSION>` is the version number chosen in step 2.
To make a release:
1. Checkout the `master` branch and pull from the main repository with `git pull <REMOTE> master`
2. Decide the version number for the new release; we follow
   [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/) but prefixing the version with `0.`: given a version
   number _0.SECOND.THIRD.FOURTH_, increment the:
   - _SECOND_ component when you make incompatible API changes
   - _THIRD_ component when you add functionality in a backwards compatible manner
   - _FOURTH_ component when you make backwards compatible bug fixes
3. Update `CHANGELOG.md` to list the chosen version number instead of `## dev`
4. Update `__version__` in `pygdbmi/__init__.py` to the chosen version number
5. Create a branch, for instance using `git checkout -b before-release-<VERSION>`
6. Commit your changes, for instance using `git commit -a -m 'Bump version to <VERSION> for release'`
7. Check that the docs look fine by serving them locally with `nox -s serve_docs`
8. Push the branch, for instance with `git push --set-upstream <REMOTE> before-release-<VERSION>`
9. If tests pass on the PR you created, you can merge into `master`
10. Go to the [new release page](https://github.com/cs01/pygdbmi/releases/new) and prepare the
    release:
    - Add a tag in the form `v<VERSION>` (for example `v0.1.2.3`)
    - Set the title to `pygdbmi v<VERSION>` (for example `pygdbmi v0.1.2.3`)
    - Copy and paste the section for the new release only from `CHANGELOG.md` excluding the line
      with the version number
    - Press “Publish release”
10. Publish the release to PyPI with `nox -s publish`
11. Publish the docs with `nox -s publish_docs`
11. Verify that the [PyPi page for pygdbmi](https://pypi.org/project/pygdbmi/) looks correct
12. Verify that the [published docs](https://cs01.github.io/pygdbmi/) look correct
13. Prepare for changes for the next release by adding something like this above the previous
    entries in `CHANGELOG.md` (where `<VERSION+1>` is `<VERSION>` with the last digit increaded
    by 1):
    ```
    ## <VERSION+1>.dev0
    - *Replace this line with new entries*
    ```
14. Create a branch for the changes with `git checkout -b after-release-<VERSION>`
15. Commit the change with `git commit -m 'Prepare for work on the next release' CHANGELOG.md`
16. Push the branch with `git push --set-upstream <REMOTE> after-release-<VERSION>`
17. If tests pass, merge into `master`

  Ubuntu 14.04 and 16.04 have been tested to work. Other versions likely work as well.
- macOS
  Note: the error `please check gdb is codesigned - see taskgated(8)` can be fixed by codesigning gdb with [these instructions](http://andresabino.com/2015/04/14/codesign-gdb-on-mac-os-x-yosemite-10-10-2/). If the error is not fixed, please [create an issue in github](https://github.com/cs01/pygdbmi/issues).
- Windows
  Windows 10 has been tested to work with MinGW and cygwin.
### gdb versions
- gdb 7.6+ has been tested. Older versions may work as well.
## Examples
gdb mi defines a syntax for its output that is suitable for machine readability and scripting: [example output](https://sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb/GDB_002fMI-Simple-Examples.html#GDB_002fMI-Simple-Examples):
```
-> -break-insert main
<- ^done,bkpt={number="1",type="breakpoint",disp="keep",
enabled="y",addr="0x08048564",func="main",file="myprog.c",
fullname="/home/myprog.c",line="68",thread-groups=["i1"],
times="0"}
<- (gdb)
```
Use `pygdbmi.gdbmiparser.parse_response` to turn that string output into a JSON serializable dictionary
```python
from pygdbmi import gdbmiparser
from pprint import pprint
response = gdbmiparser.parse_response('^done,bkpt={number="1",type="breakpoint",disp="keep", enabled="y",addr="0x08048564",func="main",file="myprog.c",fullname="/home/myprog.c",line="68",thread-groups=["i1"],times="0"')
pprint(response)
pprint(response)
# Prints:
# {'message': 'done',
#  'payload': {'bkpt': {'addr': '0x08048564',
#                       'disp': 'keep',
#                       'enabled': 'y',
#                       'file': 'myprog.c',
#                       'fullname': '/home/myprog.c',
#                       'func': 'main',
#                       'line': '68',
#                       'number': '1',
#                       'thread-groups': ['i1'],
#                       'times': '0',
#                       'type': 'breakpoint'}},
#  'token': None,
#  'type': 'result'}
```
## Programmatic Control Over gdb
But how do you get the gdb output into Python in the first place? If you want, `pygdbmi` also has a class to control gdb as subprocess. You can write commands, and get structured output back:
```python
from pygdbmi.gdbcontroller import GdbController
from pprint import pprint
# Start gdb process
gdbmi = GdbController()
print(gdbmi.command)  # print actual command run as subprocess
# Load binary a.out and get structured response
response = gdbmi.write('-file-exec-file a.out')
pprint(response)
# Prints:
# [{'message': 'thread-group-added',
#   'payload': {'id': 'i1'},
#   'stream': 'stdout',
#   'token': None,
#   'type': 'notify'},
#  {'message': 'done',
#   'payload': None,
#   'stream': 'stdout',
#   'token': None,
#   'type': 'result'}]
```
Now do whatever you want with gdb. All gdb commands, as well as gdb [machine interface commands](<(https://sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb/GDB_002fMI-Input-Syntax.html#GDB_002fMI-Input-Syntax)>) are acceptable. gdb mi commands give better structured output that is machine readable, rather than gdb console output. mi commands begin with a `-`.
```python
response = gdbmi.write('-break-insert main')  # machine interface (MI) commands start with a '-'
response = gdbmi.write('break main')  # normal gdb commands work too, but the return value is slightly different
response = gdbmi.write('-exec-run')
response = gdbmi.write('run')
response = gdbmi.write('-exec-next', timeout_sec=0.1)  # the wait time can be modified from the default of 1 second
response = gdbmi.write('next')
response = gdbmi.write('next', raise_error_on_timeout=False)
response = gdbmi.write('next', raise_error_on_timeout=True, timeout_sec=0.01)
response = gdbmi.write('-exec-continue')
response = gdbmi.send_signal_to_gdb('SIGKILL')  # name of signal is okay
response = gdbmi.send_signal_to_gdb(2)  # value of signal is okay too
response = gdbmi.interrupt_gdb()  # sends SIGINT to gdb
response = gdbmi.write('continue')
response = gdbmi.exit()
```
## Parsed Output Format
Each parsed gdb response consists of a list of dictionaries. Each dictionary has keys `message`, `payload`, `token`, and `type`.
- `message` contains a textual message from gdb, which is not always present. When missing, this is `None`.
- `payload` contains the content of gdb's output, which can contain any of the following: `dictionary`, `list`, `string`. This too is not always present, and can be `None` depending on the response.
- `token` If an input command was prefixed with a (optional) token then the corresponding output for that command will also be prefixed by that same token. This field is only present for pygdbmi output types `nofity` and `result`. When missing, this is `None`.
The `type` is defined based on gdb's various [mi output record types](<(https://sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb/GDB_002fMI-Output-Records.html#GDB_002fMI-Output-Records)>), and can be
- `result` - the result of a gdb command, such as `done`, `running`, `error`, etc.
- `notify` - additional async changes that have occurred, such as breakpoint modified
- `console` - textual responses to cli commands
- `log` - debugging messages from gdb's internals
- `output` - output from target
- `target` - output from remote target
- `done` - when gdb has finished its output
## Contributing
Documentation fixes, bug fixes, performance improvements, and functional improvements are welcome. You may want to create an issue before beginning work to make sure I am interested in merging it to the master branch.
pygdbmi uses [nox](https://github.com/theacodes/nox) for automation.
See available tasks with
```
nox -l
```
Run tests and lint with
```
nox -s tests
nox -s lint
```
Positional arguments passed to `nox -s tests` are passed directly to `pytest`. For instance, to run only the parse tests use
```
nox -s tests -- tests/test_gdbmiparser.py
```
See [`pytest`'s documentation](https://docs.pytest.org/) for more details on how to run tests.
To format code using the correct settings use
```
nox -s format
```
Or, to format only specified files, use
```
nox -s format -- example.py pygdbmi/IoManager.py
```
### Making a release
Only maintainers of the [pygdbmi package on PyPi](https://pypi.org/project/pygdbmi/) can make a release.
In the following steps, replace these strings with the correct values:
- `<REMOTE>` is the name of the remote for the main pygdbmi repository (for instance, `origin`)
- `<VERSION>` is the version number chosen in step 2.
To make a release:
1. Checkout the `master` branch and pull from the main repository with `git pull <REMOTE> master`
2. Decide the version number for the new release; we follow
   [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/) but prefixing the version with `0.`: given a version
   number _0.SECOND.THIRD.FOURTH_, increment the:
   - _SECOND_ component when you make incompatible API changes
   - _THIRD_ component when you add functionality in a backwards compatible manner
   - _FOURTH_ component when you make backwards compatible bug fixes
3. Update `CHANGELOG.md` to list the chosen version number instead of `## dev`
4. Update `__version__` in `pygdbmi/__init__.py` to the chosen version number
5. Create a branch, for instance using `git checkout -b before-release-<VERSION>`
6. Commit your changes, for instance using `git commit -a -m 'Bump version to <VERSION> for release'`
7. Check that the docs look fine by serving them locally with `nox -s serve_docs`
8. Push the branch, for instance with `git push --set-upstream <REMOTE> before-release-<VERSION>`
9. If tests pass on the PR you created, you can merge into `master`
10. Go to the [new release page](https://github.com/cs01/pygdbmi/releases/new) and prepare the
    release:
    - Add a tag in the form `v<VERSION>` (for example `v0.1.2.3`)
    - Set the title to `pygdbmi v<VERSION>` (for example `pygdbmi v0.1.2.3`)
    - Copy and paste the section for the new release only from `CHANGELOG.md` excluding the line
      with the version number
    - Press “Publish release”
10. Publish the release to PyPI with `nox -s publish`
11. Publish the docs with `nox -s publish_docs`
11. Verify that the [PyPi page for pygdbmi](https://pypi.org/project/pygdbmi/) looks correct
12. Verify that the [published docs](https://cs01.github.io/pygdbmi/) look correct
13. Prepare for changes for the next release by adding something like this above the previous
    entries in `CHANGELOG.md` (where `<VERSION+1>` is `<VERSION>` with the last digit increaded
    by 1):
    ```
    ## <VERSION+1>.dev0
    - *Replace this line with new entries*
    ```
14. Create a branch for the changes with `git checkout -b after-release-<VERSION>`
15. Commit the change with `git commit -m 'Prepare for work on the next release' CHANGELOG.md`
16. Push the branch with `git push --set-upstream <REMOTE> after-release-<VERSION>`
17. If tests pass, merge into `master`
