Debugging is an indispensable skill in software development, especially when dealing with elusive bugs that only manifest in certain environments. In real-world scenarios, modifying code on the fly might not be feasible, making it crucial to master techniques that work seamlessly in live or restricted environments.

To best debug in those kinds of environments, you should consider the following points:

  • Understand the environment: Before diving into debugging, take a step back. Understand the deployment setup, network configurations, and any security constraints. This information helps to anticipate potential issues and streamline debugging.
  • Remote debugging with proper tools: Delve is a powerful debugger for Go that supports remote debugging. By using Delve, you can connect to a running Go process and inspect variables, set breakpoints, and step through code. This is an invaluable debugging tool.
