traceback - Print or retrieve a stack traceback. The module uses traceback objects – this is the object type that is stored in the variables sys.exc_traceback (deprecated) and sys.last_traceback and returned as the third item from sys.exc_info(). print_tb( traceback[, limit[, file]]) Print up to limit stack trace entries from traceback. If limit is omitted or None, all entries are printed. If file is omitted or None, the output goes to sys.stderr; otherwise it should be an open file or file-like object to receive the output.
try: 1/0
except: print_tb(sys.exc_info()[2]) # File "", line 1, in <module>
print_exception( type, value, traceback[, limit[, file]]) Print exception information and up to limit stack trace entries from traceback to file. This differs from print_tb() in the following ways: (1) if traceback is not None, it prints a header “Traceback (most recent call last):”; (2) it prints the exception type and value after the stack trace; (3) if type is SyntaxError and value has the appropriate format, it prints the line where the syntax error occurred with a caret indicating the approximate position of the error.
try: 1/0
except:
t,v,tb = sys.exc_info()
print_exception(t,v,tb)
# Traceback (most recent call last):
# File "", line 1, in <module>
# ZeroDivisionError: integer division or modulo by zero
print_exc( [limit[, file]]) This is a shorthand for print_exception(sys.exc_type, sys.exc_value, sys.exc_traceback, limit, file). (In fact, it uses sys.exc_info() to retrieve the same information in a thread-safe way instead of using the deprecated variables.)
try: 1/0
except: print_exc()
# Traceback (most recent call last):
# File "", line 1, in <module>
# ZeroDivisionError: integer division or modulo by zero
format_exc( [limit]) This is like print_exc(limit) but returns a string instead of printing to a file. New in version 2.4.
try: 1/0
except: format_exc()
# 'Traceback (most recent call last):\n File "", line 1,
# in <module> \nZeroDivisionError: integer division or modulo
# by zero\n'
print_last( [limit[, file]]) This is a shorthand for print_exception(sys.last_type, sys.last_value, sys.last_traceback, limit, file).
print_stack( [f[, limit[, file]]]) This function prints a stack trace from its invocation point. The optional f argument can be used to specify an alternate stack frame to start. The optional limit and file arguments have the same meaning as for print_exception().
extract_tb( traceback[, limit]) Return a list of up to limit ‘’pre- processed’’ stack trace entries extracted from the traceback object traceback. It is useful for alternate formatting of stack traces. If limit is omitted or None, all entries are extracted. A ‘’pre- processed’’ stack trace entry is a quadruple (filename, line number, function name, text) representing the information that is usually printed for a stack trace. The text is a string with leading and trailing whitespace stripped; if the source is not available it is None.
try: 1/0
except:
tb = sys.exc_info()[2]
extract_tb(tb) # [('', 1, '', None)]
extract_stack( [f[, limit]]) Extract the raw traceback from the current stack frame. The return value has the same format as for extract_tb(). The optional f and limit arguments have the same meaning as for print_stack().
try: 1/0
except:
tb = sys.exc_info()[2]
extract_stack()
# [('', 1, '', None), ('F:\\Python25\\lib\\idlelib\\run.py',
# 91, 'main', 'ret = method(*args, **kwargs)'),
# ('F:\\Python25\\lib\\idlelib\\run.py', 285,
# 'runcode', 'exec code in self.locals'), ('', 4, '', None)]
format_list( list) Given a list of tuples as returned by extract_tb() or extract_stack(), return a list of strings ready for printing. Each string in the resulting list corresponds to the item with the same index in the argument list. Each string ends in a newline; the strings may contain internal newlines as well, for those items whose source text line is not None.
try: 1/0
except:
tb = sys.exc_info()[2]
lst = format_list(extract_stack())
for l in lst: print l,
# File "", line 1, in
# File "F:\Python25\lib\idlelib\run.py", line 91, in main
# ret = method(*args, **kwargs)
# File "F:\Python25\lib\idlelib\run.py", line 285, in runcode
# exec code in self.locals
# File "", line 4, in <module>
format_exception_only( type, value) Format the exception part of a traceback. The arguments are the exception type and value such as given by sys.last_type and sys.last_value. The return value is a list of strings, each ending in a newline. Normally, the list contains a single string; however, for SyntaxError exceptions, it contains several lines that (when printed) display detailed information about where the syntax error occurred. The message indicating which exception occurred is the always last string in the list.
try: 1/0
except:
t,v = sys.exc_info()[:2]
format_exception_only(t,v)
# ['ZeroDivisionError: integer division or modulo by zero\n']
format_exception( type, value, tb[, limit]) Format a stack trace and the exception information. The arguments have the same meaning as the corresponding arguments to print_exception(). The return value is a list of strings, each ending in a newline and some containing internal newlines. When these lines are concatenated and printed, exactly the same text is printed as does print_exception().
try: 1/0
except:
t,v,tb = sys.exc_info()
lst = format_exception(t,v,tb)
for l in lst: print l,
# Traceback (most recent call last):
# File "", line 1, in <module>
# ZeroDivisionError: integer division or modulo by zero
format_tb( tb[, limit]) A shorthand for format_list(extract_tb(tb, limit)).
try: 1/0
except:
tb = sys.exc_info()[2]
lst = format_tb(tb)
for l in lst: print l,
# File "", line 1, in <module>
format_stack( [f[, limit]]) A shorthand for format_list(extract_stack(f, limit)).
try: 1/0
except:
lst = format_stack()
for l in lst: print l,
# File "", line 1, in <module>
# File "F:\Python25\lib\idlelib\run.py", line 91, in main
# ret = method(*args, **kwargs)
# File "F:\Python25\lib\idlelib\run.py", line 285, in runcode
# exec code in self.locals
# File "", line 3, in <module>
tb_lineno( tb) This function returns the current line number set in the traceback object. This function was necessary because in versions of Python prior to 2.3 when the -O flag was passed to Python the tb.tb_lineno was not updated correctly. This function has no use in versions past 2.3.
try: 1/0
except:
tb = sys.exc_info()[2]
print tb_lineno(tb) # 1
