🚀 Quick Start

Installation

pip install shortfuse-lib

The "Loud" Failure

When shortfuse halts, it bypasses try/except blocks and finally handlers by using os._exit(1).

import shortfuse

# 1. Dead Code Trap
shortfuse.halt("Legacy endpoint is dead")

# 2. Conditional Trap
shortfuse.halt_unless(config.v3_enabled, "Must use V3 Config")

# 3. Dependency Trap
shortfuse.halt_if_not_none(legacy_client, "Legacy client must be removed")
