Extracts details of errors from Django error emails
If you don't use pipsi, you're missing out.
Here are installation instructions.
Simply run:
$ pipsi install .
Or if you want to use pip:
$ sudo pip install -e git+https://github.com/aptivat/extract_django_error
The way it was written was to give it a list of filenames, and each filename is an email (as if you're using maildir). I use notmuch so I can do:
$ notmuch search --output=files --limit=10 \
'subject:"django error external ip internal server error" AND from:root@myserver.com' | \
xargs extract_django_error
Which would give us the one line exception description from each email.
You can also pipe an email directly into the command, eg:
$ cat path/to/email | extract_django_error -
Note the - at the end of the error to make the command read the email from stdin.
Not so useful when just using cat but could be used to pipe in emails from procmail
or other scripts.
