Python print with line number and variable name

Sometimes you want to print something to the console (without breakpoints setup).

hello = "world"
print(hello)
>>> world

While the program is small, there are no problems with this. Let's assume that you have started working with some class with ~ 3000 lines (legacy code) and you need to quickly look at any values. The number of "prints" increases, and it becomes not easy to understand from the first time which "print" refers to which variable. You can of course write like this.

print('hello=', hello)

Yes, that's better. But I would still like to see both the line number and the type of variable. And in some cases, the path to the file.

For such cases, I have written a small (and very useful) utility that will make your life easier. Let's try to install it.

pip install simple-print

And print something.

from simple_print, import sprint

master = "yoda"

# Print the variable name with the line number
sprint(master) 

# Add blue paint
sprint(master, c="blue") 

# Add a white background
sprint(master, c="blue", b="on_white") 

# Add underline
sprint(master, c="blue", b="on_white", a="underline") 

# ADD the path to
sprint(master, c="blue", b="on_white", a="underline", p=True)

# Return as a string
s = sprint(master, s=True)

And of course you can use indents for debugging in forloops:

def test_indent():

    fruits = ["lemon", "orange", "banana"]
    sprint(fruits, c="green")

    for fruit in fruits:
        sprint(fruit, c="yellow", i=4)

Productive development for you. Thanks for reading.
