Can I get the local variables of a Python function from which an exception was thrown?

Question

I\'m writing a custom logging system for a project. If a function throws an exception, I want to log its local variables. Is it possible to access the raising function\'s

Answer 1

Useful for "handling" exceptions without using raise Exception(some_def_var) and also without using a library such as "inspect", for example.

However, I think if is to handle the exception "in real", might be better to use something like raise Exception(some_def_var). See @capfredf answer.

class MyClass():

    def __init__(self):
        self.my_attr_I = ""
        self.my_attr_II = ""

    def my_def_I(self):
        try:
            self.my_def_II()
        except Exception as e:
            print(self.my_attr_I)
            print(self.my_attr_II)

    def my_def_II(self):
        self.my_attr_I = "TO EXCEPT I"
        self.my_attr_II = "TO except II"

        # NOTE: We will treat it as a general exception! By Questor
        zero_division = 1/0
