This page contains documentation for the debug namespace in Nasal. This namespace provides various useful APIs for debugging Nasal code. The debug namespace is sourced from fgdata/Nasal/debug.nas.

Functions

attributes()

debug.attributes(p[, verbose[, color]]);

Returns a string showing the attributes of the node, in the form (type[, attr[, Lnum[, #refs]]). See the table below for explanation.

p: Mandatory props.Node object.
verbose: Optional bool specifying whether to show the number of times the node is referenced. Defaults to 1 (true).
color: Optional bool specifying whether to output the string with an ANSI color code . Defaults to nil.

Data	Meaning
type	Type of node as returned by `props.Node.getType()` .
