Coloring exceptions from Python on a terminal

Question

Is there an easy way to get the message of the exception to be colored on the command line? For example

def g():    f()
def f():    1/0
g()

Answer 1

Have a look at colorama ( or any other coloring ) module. Then you can wrap you're entire app with:

import traceback
from colorama import Fore, init
init( )

try:
    // your app
except Exception:
    print Fore.RED + traceback.format_exc( ) + Fore.RESET
    // possibly raise again or log to db
