The other day I was experimenting with the inlineCallbacks decorator in Twisted
15.4, and occasionally when I'd typo a variable name or similar, I'd get an
"unhandled error" in the log without a traceback, which was rather unhelpful.
Eventually, I managed to produce the following test-case:
https://gist.github.com/OptiverTimAll/43263a7a4cf5a298e8f5
If I run it as-is, I get the following unhelpful output:
CRITICAL:twisted:Unhandled error in Deferred:
CRITICAL:twisted:
If I comment out the line that redirects Twisted's logging to the standard
library's logging system, I get much more helpful output:
Unhandled error in Deferred:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./ic-test.py", line 20, in <module>
bogus_callback()
File
"/home/timall/.virtualenvs/txfuse/lib/python2.7/site-packages/twisted/internet/defer.py",
line 1274, in unwindGenerator
return _inlineCallbacks(None, gen, Deferred())
--- <exception caught here> ---
File
"/home/timall/.virtualenvs/txfuse/lib/python2.7/site-packages/twisted/internet/defer.py",
line 1128, in _inlineCallbacks
result = g.send(result)
File "./ic-test.py", line 17, in bogus_callback
yield does_not_exist()
exceptions.NameError: global name 'does_not_exist' is not defined
I expected that changing the destination of log messages wouldn't change their
content, but apparently I was wrong. I got the incantation for re-routing
Twisted's logging system into the Python one by stitching together
code-snippets from
http://twistedmatrix.com/documents/current/core/howto/logger.html#starting-the-global-log-publisher
Is there some better way, or some other thing I should be doing?
