TinyErr

TinyErr (pronounced tinier) provides tiny errors that get straight to the point.

Project is still in early Alpha – significant changes are expected and features are limited

Install

pip install tinyerr

While TinyErr is in alpha, it may be best to install directly from GitHub for the latest changes:

pip install git+https://github.com/James-Ansley/tinyerr.git

Example

main.py:

def foo(x, y):
    return bar(x, y)


def bar(x, y):
    return x + y


result = foo(5, "Hello")
print(result)

Running tinyerr main.py produces:

File "main.py", line 9, in <module>

    result = foo(5, "Hello")
             ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

File "main.py", line 2, in foo

    return bar(x, y)
           ^^^^^^^^^

File "main.py", line 6, in bar

    return x + y
           ~~^~~

TypeError: cannot do `<int> + <str>`

By default, the traceback limit is set to 0 (the entire stack). This can be configured with the -tb or --traceback command line option. e.g. tinyerr -tb 1 main.py will yield:

File "main.py", line 6, in bar

    return x + y
           ~~^~~

TypeError: cannot do `<int> + <str>`
