My question may seem simple but, I have a module that I launch in a terminal like this:

python -m my_module.my_file

How do I debug this in Visual Studio Code?

I have this in my launch.json (documentation)

"type": "python",
"request": "launch",
"pythonPath": "D:\\ProgramData\\Anaconda3\\envs\\simulec\\python.exe",
"args": ["-m","my_module.my_file",
]

If I don't set the program option or if I set it to "" I get "File does not exist" Error.

How can I fix this?

Actually, there is a very simple option to do this I found by accident while trying to edit the launch.json file.

"type": "python",
"request": "launch",
"pythonPath": "D:\\ProgramData\\Anaconda3\\envs\\simulec\\python.exe",
"module": "my_module.my_file",

Simply specify the module in the module key "module": "my_module.my_file"

The -m is not useful any more.
