What is the best way to log a Python exception?
We import the logging module and then use the logging.exception method to create a log of the python exception.
Example
import logging try: print 'toy' + 6 except Exception as e: logging.exception("This is an exception log")
Output
We get the following output
ERROR:root:This is an exception log Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:/Users/TutorialsPoint1/PycharmProjects/TProg/Exception handling/loggingerror1.py", line 3, in <module> print 'toy' + 6 TypeError: cannot concatenate 'str' and 'int' objects
It is noted that in Python 3 we must call the logging.exception method just inside the except part. If we call this method in any other place we may get a weird exception as per alert by python docs.
