Important
This documentation covers IPython versions 6.0 and higher. Beginning with version 6.0, IPython stopped supporting compatibility with Python versions lower than 3.3 including all versions of Python 2.7.
If you are looking for an IPython version compatible with Python 2.7, please use the IPython 5.x LTS release and refer to its documentation (LTS is the long term support release).

object
Customizable crash handlers for IPython applications.
Instances of this class provide a
__call__()
method which can be used as asys.excepthook
. The__call__()
signature is:def __call__(self, etype, evalue, etb)
- __init__(app: Application, contact_name: str | None = None, contact_email: str | None = None, bug_tracker: str | None = None, show_crash_traceback: bool = True, call_pdb: bool = False)
Create a new crash handler
- Parameters:
app (Application) – A running
Application
instance, which will be queried at crash time for internal information.contact_name (str) – A string with the name of the person to contact.
contact_email (str) – A string with the email address of the contact.
bug_tracker (str) – A string with the URL for your project’s bug tracker.
show_crash_traceback (bool) – If false, don’t print the crash traceback on stderr, only generate the on-disk report
call_pdb – Whether to call pdb on crash
- These instances contain some non-argument attributes which allow for
- further customization of the crash handler's behavior. Please see the
- source for further details.
