#29767 — Re: Redirecting STDOUT to a Python Variable

To capture the traceback, so to put it in a log, I use this

import traceback

def get_traceback(): # obtain and return the traceback
    exc_type, exc_value, exc_traceback = sys.exc_info()
    return ''.join(traceback.format_exception(exc_type, exc_value, exc_traceback)) 


Suppose I have a script run by the scheduler, this captures the traceback form any problems and emails them.



if __name__ == '__main__':
    try: 
        Runs_unattended()
    except:
        send_mail(send_from = yourEmailAddress,
              send_to = [ yourEmailAddress ], subject = 'Runs_unattended',
              text = '%s' % get_traceback(),
              files = [], server=yourLocalSMTP)

This could be coded more succinctly as

import sys, traceback

def get_traceback(): # obtain and return the traceback
    return ''.join(traceback.format_exception(*sys.exc_info()))

Errhm, '%s' % get_traceback() is equiavalent to get_traceback()
How about:

if __name__ == '__main__':
    try:
        Runs_unattended()
    except:
        send_mail(send_from = yourEmailAddress,
              send_to = [ yourEmailAddress ],
              subject = 'Runs_unattended',
              text = get_traceback(),
              files = [],
              server=yourLocalSMTP)



Hope this helps,

Why not just use?

      return traceback.format_exc()
