Django Api Debugger

What it does

The django-api-debugger skill provides debugging capabilities for Django API endpoints. It allows users to inspect request and response data, view stack traces, and identify performance bottlenecks within their Django applications. This skill simplifies the process of troubleshooting and optimizing Django APIs.

When to use it

• Debugging API errors: When encountering unexpected behavior or error messages from a Django API endpoint.
• Performance analysis: To pinpoint slow-running queries or inefficient code impacting API response times.
• Understanding request/response flow: To examine the data being sent and received by an API, aiding in development and integration.
• Troubleshooting third-party integrations: When debugging issues arising from interactions with external services through a Django API.

Key capabilities

• Inspects request data (headers, body)
• Displays response data (status code, headers, body)
• Provides stack traces for errors
• Identifies performance bottlenecks

Example prompts

• "Debug the /api/users endpoint and show me the full request."
• "What was the response body when I called /api/products?"
• "Show me the stack trace for the error that occurred on /api/orders."

Tips & gotchas

This skill requires a Django environment to be active. Ensure your Django application is running and accessible before attempting to debug API endpoints with this skill.
