dvg-debug-functions 2.5.0

Functions

• print_fancy_traceback(err=None, back: int = 3, show_full_paths: bool = False)

  Print the exception or the current regular call-stack traceback to the terminal, using ANSI color codes that mimic the IPython command shell.

  Args:

  err (Exception | str | None, optional):

  When err is of type Exception, then an exception traceback will be printed. When err is of another type, then the current regular call-stack traceback will be printed.

  Default: None

  back (int, optional):

  Depth of the traceback to print.

  Default: 3

  show_full_paths (bool, optional):

  Shows the full filepath in the traceback when True, otherwise just the filename.

  Default: False

  Example output:

  

• dprint(str_msg: str, ANSI_color: str = None)

  ‘Debug’ print a single line to the terminal with optional ANSI color codes. There is a lot of overhead using this print statement, but it is particularly well-suited for multithreaded PyQt programs where multiple threads are each printing information to the same terminal. The dprint() function ensure that each line sent to the terminal will remain as a continious single line, whereas a regular print() statement will likely result in the lines getting mixed up.

  The line will be terminated with a newline character and the terminal output buffer is forced to flush before and after every print. In addition, if PyQt5 is present in the Python environment, then a mutex lock will be obtained and released again for each dprint() execution.

• tprint(str_msg: str, ANSI_color: str = None)

  Identical to dprint(), but now prepended with a time.perf_counter() timestamp.
