Print the stack trace of external library












0















I've a very simple python application which calls into another library. I would like to print the calling path (stack trace) for that call. How can I do that in python?



For:



import datetime
x = datetime.datetime.strptime('2018-1-1', "%Y-%m-%d")


I would like to see the what strptime does inside.



Thanks,
Eden

  • Are you using an IDE, for example using PyCharm it's straightforward to Ctrl + Click a function and skip to the source code where you can find the implementation

  • You can use the pdb module and call pdb.set_trace() before the line you want to trace, then you can use pdb facilities to inspect every aspect of what's going on.
