Check if DEBUG in python Bottle

Question

I'm using Bottle 0.12,

how to use the DEBUG global to check if I'm running the development server — or another mean to check in the app if app.run(debug=True) is running?

What I want to achieve is to e.g. make some routes available only in debug

from bottle import DEBUG

@app.route('/debug')
def debug():
    if not DEBUG:
        abort(404)
    return template('debug.html')

I see a global DEBUG variable in bottle source code code which is always False when tested, even if dev server is running with app.run(debug=True)

Try this

import bottle

@app.route('/debug')
def debug():
    if not bottle.DEBUG:
        abort(404)
    return template('debug.html')
