Hook on module names

[SirJoeth3rd]

I've got a very unique setup. The python process I want sits on a remote server but the modules are retrieved from a tree based structure in a database. So the file parameter of the module object will look like this "[context]/[modulename]". We've got the python files in a local repository and we use pipelines to recon these files with those stored in the database.

So getting to the problem, I can attach to the debugger process perfectly well but the module names are sending through as "[context]/[modulename]" if I can add a hook in somewhere to remove the [context] then our team's pycharm/vscode will be able to pick up the file being debugged.

Before I do a deep dive into the debugpy codebase I think some advice would save me a lot of time. Can I provide a custom Pdb class for the debugger? Is there a natural point in debugpy where I could insert such a hook?

Thank you.
