How to log exceptions in appengine?

Question

try:
  #do something that raises an exception...
except:
  logging.error('Error Message')

I want more than just "Error Message" to show in the logs. I want to see the traceback, or at least what the exception was, in the logs as well. How do I do that?

Thanks!

Answer 1

logging.exception(msg[, *args])

Logs a message with level ERROR on the root logger. The arguments are interpreted as for debug(). Exception info is added to the logging message. This function should only be called from an exception handler.

Answer 2

This is what I use to log the entire stack trace:

import traceback
try:
    # your code
except:
    stacktrace = traceback.format_exc()
    logging.error("%s", stacktrace)

I think this should help you

import logging

try:
    #exception code
except Exception as e:
    logging.error(e)
