errorify 0.0.2

A lightweight Python package for structured and readable exception details.

Errorify

Errorify is a lightweight Python package that helps you format and display exception details in a clean, structured, and readable way. It captures essential information - such as the exception type, message, file path, line number, and a timestamp - making debugging simpler and logs more meaningful.

---

Installation

Install Errorify directly from PyPI:

pip install errorify

---

Usage

To use Errorify, import it and pass the caught exception object (error) into the errorify() function. It will return a formatted string containing all relevant exception details.

Example 1 - Basic Usage

from errorify import errorify

try:
    raise ValueError("Invalid value")
except Exception as e:
    print(errorify(e))

Example Output

-------------------------------- Error Details --------------------------------
Timestamp: 2025-10-12 18:45:20 +0000
Exception Name: ValueError
Exception Message: Invalid value
Exception File Path: /home/user/Documents/test.py
Exception File Name: test.py
Exception File Line Number: 4
Error File Path: /home/user/Documents/test.py
Error File Name: test.py
Error Function Name: <module>
Error File Line Number: 4
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

---

Example 2 - With Custom Timezone

You can specify a timezone offset in hours using the tz_offset parameter. This is useful when running code on a server (UTC) but you want local timestamps in logs.

from errorify import errorify

try:
    1 / 0
except Exception as e:
    print(errorify(e, tz_offset=+6))

Example Output

-------------------------------- Error Details --------------------------------
Timestamp: 2025-10-12 23:45:20 +0600
Exception Name: ZeroDivisionError
Exception Message: division by zero
Exception File Path: /home/user/Documents/test.py
Exception File Name: test.py
Exception File Line Number: 4
Error File Path: /home/user/Documents/test.py
Error File Name: test.py
Error Function Name: <module>
Error File Line Number: 4
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

---

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
error	BaseException	Required	The caught exception object.
tz_offset	int / float / None	None	Timezone offset in hours (e.g. +6, -5.5, +3.5). Defaults to UTC if not provided.
timestamp_format	str	"%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S %z"	Datetime format for the timestamp (standard strftime format).

---

Example Integration

You can use Errorify inside larger applications or logging systems to generate readable error summaries:

from errorify import errorify

def divide(a, b):
    return a / b

try:
    divide(5, 0)
except Exception as e:
    # Print or log formatted error details
    print(errorify(e, tz_offset=+5.5))

Output:

-------------------------------- Error Details --------------------------------
Timestamp: 2025-10-12 22:15:42 +0530
Exception Name: ZeroDivisionError
Exception Message: division by zero
Exception File Path: /home/user/project/app.py
Exception File Name: app.py
Exception File Line Number: 7
Error File Path: /home/user/project/app.py
Error File Name: app.py
Error Function Name: divide
Error File Line Number: 7
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Notes

• errorify() should always be called inside an except block.
• Works across Linux, macOS, and Windows.
• No external dependencies - pure Python standard library.
• Safe for production logging, debugging, or error reporting systems.
