Debugging CGI params?

Rails
1

Is there an easy way to debug the CGI Params that get returned from an
HTML form?

I can use a logger event to push things to the log file, but I’d really
like to do something step-by-step, like an irb console session, I just
haven’t figured out the steps needed…

Any pointers?

If you just want to simply take a look at the parameters, temporarily
put “raise” in your controller method. You’ll get the standard
“RuntimeError in SomeController#action” page that shows up during
development, including the section showing the request parameters.

If you want to step through code, look into breakpoint.
