Pikabu is a gem that makes debugging a little bit easier by detecting errors in your ruby script and placing you in a binding environment right before the error occurs. Alternatively, Pikabu can be called with a line number, placing you directly in a binding environment at that line, and all without modifying your original script.
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'pikabu'And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install pikabu
You don't ever need to require pikabu in any of your scripts. To use it, run
$ pikabu [file_path.rb]
from the command line. Pikabu will place a binding.pry before the first error it detects and rerun your script.
You can also run
$ pikabu [file_path.rb] [line #]
and pikabu will insert a binding.pry at the line number specified.
