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

Convert Word documents to markdown with pandoc

I use pandoc to convert masses of Word documents to markdown. Still working on a generic script, but for now here's the "gist" of what I type into the terminal:

$ myfilename="example"
$ pandoc \
-t markdown_strict \
--extract-media='./attachments/$myfilename' \
$myfilename.docx \
