Improve Logging on errors
Chocrates opened this issue · 2 comments
In some places we log exceptions and continue forward, here for example https://github.com/github/github-team-sync/blob/5d50752e9f1b812a9ddfe9f97ee666d3c3f349ac/githubapp/ldap.py#L87
Some of the errors printed currently are not that useful "mail" for instance when the actual exception is a missing attribute on the object,
We should clean this up.
Hi @Chocrates, I'm Rishabh, Can you please elaborate this issue?
Thanks @anonymousr007, in many places we log the exception directly. The message that the exception throws are things like "mail" or other tersely worded errors.
See https://github.com/github/github-team-sync/blob/a18ca46a12b251c27e0582f769e073e0a0d24fad/githubapp/ldap.py#L87
It looks like this was mostly fixed in the latest code to print stack traces https://github.com/github/github-team-sync/blob/main/app.py#L94
If you'd like you can use this one to focus on rewriting all the logging to use a unified pattern, possibly using logging
see https://github.com/github/github-team-sync/blob/main/githubapp/okta.py#L7
I don't have a strong opinion on how logging gets done though, as long as we get stack traces for exceptions :)
