I was playing around with the inspect module the other day
trying to write a quick and dirty "smart" logger. By this I mean
that writing a message to the global log would also yield some
info about the calling scope. If you look at my function "test"
below, I'd ideally like log messages:
foo.py:test, "message 1"
foo.py:Foo.__init__, "message 2"
foo.py:Foo.bar, "message 3"
For the life of me I can't figure out how to get this info without
resorting to ridiculous things like parsing the source code (available
via inspect.stack.
Any help would be much appreciated - my unit tests are failing
on this at the moment ;-)
Cheers,
Darran.
#------------ foo.py ---------------------------------
import inspect
class Log:
def __init__(self):
pass
def write(self, msg):
print
"------------------------------------------------------------"
print msg
print
"------------------------------------------------------------"
cframe, cmodule, cline, cfunction, csrc, tmp = inspect.stack()[1]
print inspect.stack()
# I want to determine if cfunction is a regular function or a
class method.
# If the latter, what is the name of the class?
del cframe
def test():
log = Log()
log.write('message 1)
class Foo:
def __init__(self):
log.write('message 2')
def bar(self):
log.write('message 3')
f = Foo()
f.bar()
test()
#--------------------- end of foo.py --------------
