Debugging

Debugging strategies are rudimentary for now:

  • assign a value of (lambda (err) (message "Error while executing director script: %S" err)) to the :on-error property
  • if you’re running a headless session under screen -D -m, run a visible one instead
  • increase :delay-between-steps to see what’s going on
  • set a :log-target file and tail -f it
  • sprinkle the script with (:log FORM) steps
  • add a (:suspend) step, inspect the session interactively, resume with M-x director-resume
