        "description": "========\n Tipper\n========\n\nTipper is a small utility for dumping `stack tracebacks`_ of running\nPython processes.\n\nIncluded is a module that, when imported, installs a `signal handler`_\nfor `SIGUSR1`_. Running ``kill -SIGUSR1 [pid]`` will cause the process\nto dump the current stack trace of each thread to\n``$TMPDIR/tipper-[unix timestamp]-[parent pid]-[pid].log``.\n\nTipper can also be used as `Django`_ application, though it has no\ndependencies on Django itself.\n\nPython 2.5 or newer is required. Python 3.x is also supported.\n\n.. _stack tracebacks: http://docs.python.org/library/traceback.html\n.. _signal handler: http://docs.python.org/library/signal.html\n.. _SIGUSR1: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SIGUSR1_and_SIGUSR2\n.. _Django: http://www.djangoproject.com/\n\n\nDownload\n--------\n\n* tipper-0.1.tar.gz_ (4 KB, requires Python 2.5-2.7 or Python 3.1)\n\n.. _tipper-0.1.tar.gz: http://bitheap.org/tipper/tipper-0.1.tar.gz\n\n\nUsage\n-----\n\nTo take Tipper for a test drive, first install Tipper::\n\n    $ pip install tipper\n\nSet up a Python process to inspect::\n\n    $ cat > test.py <<EOF\n    > import os, sys, time, tipper\n    > sys.stdout.write('%s\\n' % os.getpid())\n    > while True:\n    >     time.sleep(1)\n    > EOF\n    $ python test.py\n    945\n\nAnd send ``SIGUSR1`` to it::\n\n    $ kill -SIGUSR1 945\n\nYou should end up with a file in ``$TMPDIR`` that looks like the following::\n\n    $ cat \"$TMPDIR/tipper-1292830152.19-681-945.log\"\n    Date: 2010-12-20 18:29:12.192733\n    Parent process ID: 681\n    Process ID: 945\n\n    Traceback (thread 140048470763264):\n\n      File \"test.py\", line 4, in <module>\n        time.sleep(1)\n\n          Arguments: <module>()\n          Local variables:\n\n          {'__builtins__': <module '__builtin__' (built-in)>,\n           '__doc__': None,\n           '__file__': 'test.py',\n           '__name__': '__main__',\n           '__package__': None,\n           'os': <module 'os' from '/usr/lib/python2.6/os.pyc'>,\n           'sys': <module 'sys' (built-in)>,\n           'time': <module 'time' (built-in)>,\n           'tipper': <module 'tipper' from '/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/tipper/__init__.py'>}\n\nTo get a briefer overview of the log, you can use grep::\n\n    $ grep -v '^      \\|^$' \"$TMPDIR/tipper-1292830152.19-681-945.log\"\n    Date: 2010-12-20 18:29:12.192733\n    Parent process ID: 681\n    Process ID: 945\n    Traceback (thread 140048470763264):\n      File \"test.py\", line 4, in <module>\n        time.sleep(1)\n\n\nNews\n----\n\nVersion 0.1 (Dec. 20, 2010)\n```````````````````````````\n* Initial release.\n\n\nDevelopment\n-----------\n\nDownload the official development repository using Mercurial_::\n\n    hg clone https://bitbucket.org/brodie/tipper\n\nVisit Bitbucket_ if you'd like to fork the project, watch for new\nchanges, or report issues.\n\n.. _Mercurial: http://mercurial.selenic.com/\n.. _Bitbucket: https://bitbucket.org/brodie/tipper",
