# Better tracebacks

This is a more helpful version of Python's built-in exception message: It shows more code context and the current values of nearby variables. That answers many of the questions I'd ask an interactive debugger: Where in the code was the crash, what's in the relevant variables, and why was _that_ function called with _those_ arguments. It either prints to the console or gives you a string for logging.

```bash
pip3 install stackprinter
```

I rarely use this locally instead of a real debugger, but it helps me sleep when my code runs somewhere where the only debug tool is a log file (though it's not a fully-grown [error monitoring system](https://sentry.io/welcome/)).

By default, it tries to be somewhat polite about screen space, showing only a few source lines & the function header, and only the variables _that appear in those lines_, and using only (?) 500 characters per variable. You can [configure](https://github.com/cknd/stackprinter/blob/master/stackprinter/__init__.py#L28-L149) exactly how verbose things should be.

It outputs plain text normally, which is good for log files. There's also a color mode for some reason 🌈, with a few different color schemes for light and dark backgrounds. (The colors [track different variables](https://medium.com/@brianwill/making-semantic-highlighting-useful-9aeac92411df) instead of the language syntax.)

# Usage

## Option 1: Set and forget
To replace the default python crash printout, call `set_excepthook()` somewhere once. Afterwards, any uncaught exception will be printed with an extended traceback (to stderr, by default). You could also [make this permanent for your python installation](#making-it-stick).

```python
import stackprinter
stackprinter.set_excepthook(style='darkbg2')  # for jupyter notebooks try style='lightbg'
```
## Option 2: Call it selectively during exception handling
For more control, call [`show()`](https://github.com/cknd/stackprinter/blob/master/stackprinter/__init__.py#L166-L183) or [`format()`](https://github.com/cknd/stackprinter/blob/master/stackprinter/__init__.py#L28-L149) inside an `except` block. `show()` prints to stderr, `format()` returns a string, for custom logging.

```python
try:
    something()
except:
    # print the current exception to stderr:
    stackprinter.show()

    # ...or instead, get a string for logging:
    logger.error(stackprinter.format())
```
Or pass specific exceptions explicitly:
```python
try:
    something()
except RuntimeError as exc:
    tb = stackprinter.format(exc)
    logger.error('The front fell off.\n' + tb)
```

## Config options

`format()`, `show()` and `set_excepthook()` accept a common set of keyword args. They allow you to tweak the formatting, hide certain variables by name, skip variables in calls within certain files, and some other stuff. 

```python
try:
    something()
except RuntimeError as exc:
    stackprinter.show(exc, suppressed_vars=[r".*secret.*"],
                           suppressed_paths=[r"lib/python.*/site-packages/boringstuff"],
                           truncate_vals=9001,
                           style="darkbg2")
```
For all the options [see the docstring of `format()`](https://github.com/cknd/stackprinter/blob/master/stackprinter/__init__.py#L28-L149).

## Option 3: Integrate with the standard `logging` module

With a bit of extra plumbing you can log errors like this via the normal `logging` methods, without having to import `stackprinter` at the site of the logging call. So you can continue to write nice and simple error handlers like so...

```python
logger = logging.getLogger()
try:
    nothing = {}
    dangerous_function(nothing.get("something"))
except:
    logger.exception('My hovercraft is full of eels.')
```
...but still get annotated tracebacks in the resulting log.
```
2022-04-02 16:16:40,905 ERROR: My hovercraft is full of eels.
  ┆ File "demo_logging.py", line 56, in <module>
  ┆     54   try:
  ┆     55       nothing = {}
  ┆ --> 56       dangerous_function(nothing.get("something"))

  ┆     ..................................................

  ┆     51   def dangerous_function(something):
  ┆ --> 52       return something + 1

  ┆      something = None
  ┆     ..................................................
  ┆
  ┆ TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for +: 'NoneType' and 'int'
```

You can get this by adding a [custom formatter](https://docs.python.org/3/howto/logging-cookbook.html#customized-exception-formatting) to the logger before using it:

```python
import logging
import stackprinter

class VerboseExceptionFormatter(logging.Formatter):
    def formatException(self, exc_info):
        msg = stackprinter.format(exc_info)
        lines = msg.split('\n')
        lines_indented = ["  ┆ " + line + "\n" for line in lines]
        msg_indented = "".join(lines_indented)
        return msg_indented

def configure_logger(logger_name=None):
    fmt = '%(asctime)s %(levelname)s: %(message)s'
    formatter = VerboseExceptionFormatter(fmt)

    handler = logging.StreamHandler()
    handler.setFormatter(formatter)

    logger = logging.getLogger(logger_name)
    logger.addHandler(handler)

configure_logger("some_logger")
```
See [demo_logging.py](https://github.com/cknd/stackprinter/blob/master/demo_logging.py) for a runnable example.

## Printing the current call stack
To see your own thread's current call stack, call `show` or `format` anywhere outside of exception handling.

```python
stackprinter.show() # or format()
```

## Printing the stack of another thread
To inspect the call stack of any other running thread:

```python
thread = threading.Thread(target=something)
thread.start()
# (...)
stackprinter.show(thread) # or format(thread)
```

## Making it stick

To permanently replace the crash message for your python installation, you *could* put a file `sitecustomize.py` into the `site-packages` directory under one of the paths revealed by `python -c "import site; print(site.PREFIXES)"`, with contents like this:

```python
    # in e.g. some_virtualenv/lib/python3.x/site-packages/sitecustomize.py:
    import stackprinter
    stackprinter.set_excepthook(style='darkbg2')
```

That would give you colorful tracebacks automatically every time, even in the REPL.

(You could do a similar thing for IPython, [but they have their own method](https://ipython.readthedocs.io/en/stable/interactive/tutorial.html?highlight=startup#configuration), where the file goes into `~/.ipython/profile_default/startup` instead, and also I don't want to talk about what this module does to set an excepthook under IPython.)

# Docs

For now, the documentation consists only of some fairly detailed docstrings, [e.g. those of `format()`](https://github.com/cknd/stackprinter/blob/master/stackprinter/__init__.py#L28-L149)

# Caveats

This displays variable values as they are _at the time of formatting_. In
multi-threaded programs, variables can change while we're busy walking
the stack & printing them. So, if nothing seems to make sense, consider that
your exception and the traceback messages are from slightly different times.
Sadly, there is no responsible way to freeze all other threads as soon
as we want to inspect some thread's call stack (...or is there?)

# How it works

Basically, this is a frame formatter. For each [frame on the call stack](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Call_stack), it grabs the source code to find out which source lines reference which variables. Then it displays code and variables in the neighbourhood of the last executed line.

Since this already requires a map of where each variable occurs in the code, it was difficult not to also implement the whole semantic highlighting color thing seen in the screenshots. The colors are ANSI escape codes now, but it should be fairly straightforward™ to render the underlying data without any 1980ies terminal technology. Say, a foldable and clickable HTML page with downloadable pickled variables. For now you'll have to pipe the ANSI strings through [ansi2html](https://github.com/ralphbean/ansi2html/) or something.

The format and everything is inspired by the excellent [`ultratb`](https://ipython.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api/generated/IPython.core.ultratb.html) in IPython. One day I'd like to contribute the whole "find out which variables in `locals` and `globals` are nearby in the source and print only those" machine over there, after trimming its complexity a bit.

## Tracing a piece of code

More for curiosity than anything else, you can watch a piece of code execute step-by-step, printing a trace of all calls & returns 'live' as they are happening. Slows everything down though, of course.
```python
with stackprinter.TracePrinter(style='darkbg2'):
    dosomething()
```

or
```python
tp = stackprinter.TracePrinter(style='darkbg2')
tp.enable()
dosomething()
# (...) +1 million lines
tp.disable()
```

I rarely use this locally instead of a real debugger, but it helps me sleep when my code runs somewhere where the only debug tool is a log file (though it's not a fully-grown [error monitoring system](https://sentry.io/welcome/)).

By default, it tries to be somewhat polite about screen space, showing only a few source lines & the function header, and only the variables _that appear in those lines_, and using only (?) 500 characters per variable. You can [configure](https://github.com/cknd/stackprinter/blob/master/stackprinter/__init__.py#L28-L149) exactly how verbose things should be.

It outputs plain text normally, which is good for log files. There's also a color mode for some reason 🌈, with a few different color schemes for light and dark backgrounds. (The colors [track different variables](https://medium.com/@brianwill/making-semantic-highlighting-useful-9aeac92411df) instead of the language syntax.)

# Usage

## Option 1: Set and forget
To replace the default python crash printout, call `set_excepthook()` somewhere once. Afterwards, any uncaught exception will be printed with an extended traceback (to stderr, by default). You could also [make this permanent for your python installation](#making-it-stick).

```python
import stackprinter
stackprinter.set_excepthook(style='darkbg2')  # for jupyter notebooks try style='lightbg'
```
## Option 2: Call it selectively during exception handling
For more control, call [`show()`](https://github.com/cknd/stackprinter/blob/master/stackprinter/__init__.py#L166-L183) or [`format()`](https://github.com/cknd/stackprinter/blob/master/stackprinter/__init__.py#L28-L149) inside an `except` block. `show()` prints to stderr, `format()` returns a string, for custom logging.

```python
try:
    something()
except:
    # print the current exception to stderr:
    stackprinter.show()

    # ...or instead, get a string for logging:
    logger.error(stackprinter.format())
```
Or pass specific exceptions explicitly:
```python
try:
    something()
except RuntimeError as exc:
    tb = stackprinter.format(exc)
    logger.error('The front fell off.\n' + tb)
```

## Config options

`format()`, `show()` and `set_excepthook()` accept a common set of keyword args. They allow you to tweak the formatting, hide certain variables by name, skip variables in calls within certain files, and some other stuff. 

```python
try:
    something()
except RuntimeError as exc:
    stackprinter.show(exc, suppressed_vars=[r".*secret.*"],
                           suppressed_paths=[r"lib/python.*/site-packages/boringstuff"],
                           truncate_vals=9001,
                           style="darkbg2")
```
For all the options [see the docstring of `format()`](https://github.com/cknd/stackprinter/blob/master/stackprinter/__init__.py#L28-L149).

## Option 3: Integrate with the standard `logging` module

With a bit of extra plumbing you can log errors like this via the normal `logging` methods, without having to import `stackprinter` at the site of the logging call. So you can continue to write nice and simple error handlers like so...

```python
logger = logging.getLogger()
try:
    nothing = {}
    dangerous_function(nothing.get("something"))
except:
    logger.exception('My hovercraft is full of eels.')
```
...but still get annotated tracebacks in the resulting log.
```
2022-04-02 16:16:40,905 ERROR: My hovercraft is full of eels.
  ┆ File "demo_logging.py", line 56, in <module>
  ┆     54   try:
  ┆     55       nothing = {}
  ┆ --> 56       dangerous_function(nothing.get("something"))
  ┆     57   except:
  ┆     ..................................................
  ┆      nothing = {}
  ┆     ..................................................
  ┆
  ┆ File "demo_logging.py", line 52, in dangerous_function
  ┆     51   def dangerous_function(something):
  ┆ --> 52       return something + 1
  ┆     ..................................................
  ┆      something = None
  ┆     ..................................................
  ┆
  ┆ TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for +: 'NoneType' and 'int'
```

You can get this by adding a [custom formatter](https://docs.python.org/3/howto/logging-cookbook.html#customized-exception-formatting) to the logger before using it:

```python
import logging
import stackprinter

class VerboseExceptionFormatter(logging.Formatter):
    def formatException(self, exc_info):
        msg = stackprinter.format(exc_info)
        lines = msg.split('\n')
        lines_indented = ["  ┆ " + line + "\n" for line in lines]
        msg_indented = "".join(lines_indented)
        return msg_indented

def configure_logger(logger_name=None):
    fmt = '%(asctime)s %(levelname)s: %(message)s'
    formatter = VerboseExceptionFormatter(fmt)

    handler = logging.StreamHandler()
    handler.setFormatter(formatter)

    logger = logging.getLogger(logger_name)
    logger.addHandler(handler)

configure_logger("some_logger")
```
See [demo_logging.py](https://github.com/cknd/stackprinter/blob/master/demo_logging.py) for a runnable example.

## Printing the current call stack
To see your own thread's current call stack, call `show` or `format` anywhere outside of exception handling.

```python
stackprinter.show() # or format()
```

## Printing the stack of another thread
To inspect the call stack of any other running thread:

```python
thread = threading.Thread(target=something)
thread.start()
# (...)
stackprinter.show(thread) # or format(thread)
```

## Making it stick

To permanently replace the crash message for your python installation, you *could* put a file `sitecustomize.py` into the `site-packages` directory under one of the paths revealed by `python -c "import site; print(site.PREFIXES)"`, with contents like this:

```python
    # in e.g. some_virtualenv/lib/python3.x/site-packages/sitecustomize.py:
    import stackprinter
    stackprinter.set_excepthook(style='darkbg2')
```

That would give you colorful tracebacks automatically every time, even in the REPL.

(You could do a similar thing for IPython, [but they have their own method](https://ipython.readthedocs.io/en/stable/interactive/tutorial.html?highlight=startup#configuration), where the file goes into `~/.ipython/profile_default/startup` instead, and also I don't want to talk about what this module does to set an excepthook under IPython.)

# Docs

For now, the documentation consists only of some fairly detailed docstrings, [e.g. those of `format()`](https://github.com/cknd/stackprinter/blob/master/stackprinter/__init__.py#L28-L149)

# Caveats

This displays variable values as they are _at the time of formatting_. In
multi-threaded programs, variables can change while we're busy walking
the stack & printing them. So, if nothing seems to make sense, consider that
your exception and the traceback messages are from slightly different times.
Sadly, there is no responsible way to freeze all other threads as soon
as we want to inspect some thread's call stack (...or is there?)

# How it works

Basically, this is a frame formatter. For each [frame on the call stack](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Call_stack), it grabs the source code to find out which source lines reference which variables. Then it displays code and variables in the neighbourhood of the last executed line.

Since this already requires a map of where each variable occurs in the code, it was difficult not to also implement the whole semantic highlighting color thing seen in the screenshots. The colors are ANSI escape codes now, but it should be fairly straightforward™ to render the underlying data without any 1980ies terminal technology. Say, a foldable and clickable HTML page with downloadable pickled variables. For now you'll have to pipe the ANSI strings through [ansi2html](https://github.com/ralphbean/ansi2html/) or something.

The format and everything is inspired by the excellent [`ultratb`](https://ipython.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api/generated/IPython.core.ultratb.html) in IPython. One day I'd like to contribute the whole "find out which variables in `locals` and `globals` are nearby in the source and print only those" machine over there, after trimming its complexity a bit.

## Tracing a piece of code

More for curiosity than anything else, you can watch a piece of code execute step-by-step, printing a trace of all calls & returns 'live' as they are happening. Slows everything down though, of course.
```python
with stackprinter.TracePrinter(style='darkbg2'):
    dosomething()
```

or
```python
tp = stackprinter.TracePrinter(style='darkbg2')
tp.enable()
dosomething()
# (...) +1 million lines
tp.disable()
```
