Package: tracelogger
I wrote this before I learnt aboutSnoop:https://github.com/alexmojaki/snoopa much polished version of the same concept and implementation with an additional set of debug tools.TraceloggerTag your functions with the@traceloggerdecorator to be logged line-by-line.Optionally provide a function as theprinterargument that takes the local variable dictionary and returns a string. This allows the customisation of which variables and how you want to print at each line. See the example with the providednames_printerfunction that only prints a selected set of variables.The secondwidthparameter determines the maximum character number for each line of code defaulting to80.from tracelogger import tracelogger, names_printer
