An example of psycopg2 cursor supporting prepared statements
#!/usr/bin/env python
"""An example of cursor dealing with prepared statements.
A cursor can be used as a regular one, but has also a prepare() statement. If
prepare() is called, execute() and executemany() can be used without query: in
this case the parameters are passed to the prepared statement. The functions
also execute the prepared statement if the query is the same prepared before.
Prepared statements aren't automatically deallocated when the cursor is
deleted, but are when the cursor is closed. For long-running sessions creating

How to recover lost Python source code if it's still resident in-memory

How to recover lost Python source code if it's still resident in-memory

I screwed up using git ("git checkout --" on the wrong file) and managed to delete the code I had just written... but it was still running in a process in a docker container. Here's how I got it back, using https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pyrasite/ and https://pypi.python.org/pypi/uncompyle6

Attach a shell to the docker container

Install GDB (needed by pyrasite)

apt-get update && apt-get install gdb
