ipython integration
nixjdm opened this issue · comments
There's at least a couple problems with this working with ipython.
- Exporting the env var seems to have no effect.
- This brings the formatting of tbvaccine, and some things, but not the locals I added in the shell.
from tbvaccine import TBVaccine
try:
some_stuff()
except:
print(TBVaccine().format_exc())imagine this is styled:
Traceback (most recent call last):

- This seems to not be any different from a normal exception in ipython. It looks identical either way.
import tbvaccine
tbvaccine.add_hook(isolate=False)
1 / 0The same seems to hold for at least flask-shell-ipython, which is unsurprising.
Possibly out-of-scope: I have no idea really, but maybe whatever is needed to get this to work would also suffice for Jupyter as well. If we're lucky.
Yeah, this is flaky enough that I ended up not using it myself, but also useful enough that I really should look into it and see why it doesn't work. I would expect that the global system hook would pretty-print any exception, but that doesn't seem to work either.
The addition of printing locals is the selling point for me :) That's a large part of why Sentry is great too. It can make debugging a ton easier.
Definitely agreed, it's a great tool, if I can get it working :P
It's not well advertised, but you can make ipython show local variables by running %xmode Verbose. https://ipython.readthedocs.io/en/stable/interactive/magics.html#magic-xmode
ipython tracebacks will also be improved with the release of 8.0, e.g. see ipython/ipython#12150
