verbose-log-message (TRY401)#

Derived from the tryceratops linter.

What it does#

Checks for excessive logging of exception objects.

Why is this bad?#

When logging exceptions via logging.exception, the exception object is logged automatically. Including the exception object in the log message is redundant and can lead to excessive logging.

Example#

try:
    ...
except ValueError as e:
    logger.exception(f"Found an error: {e}")

Use instead:

try:
    ...
except ValueError:
    logger.exception("Found an error")
