Source entered interactively can now be displayed in traceback output. Also,
the REPL object is now available in its namespace, so that, for instance,
display options--like `spy`--can be turned on and off interactively.
Closeshylang/hy#1397.
Compiler and command-line error messages now reflect their Python counterparts.
E.g. where Python emits a `SyntaxError`, so does Hy; same for `TypeError`s.
Multiple tests have been added that check the format and type of raised
exceptions over varying command-line invocations (e.g. interactive and not).
A new exception type for `require` errors was added so that they can be treated
like normal run-time errors and not compiler errors.
The Hy REPL has been further refactored to better match the class-structured
API. Now, different error types are handled separately and leverage more base
class-provided functionality.
Closeshylang/hy#1486.
Colored exception output is now disabled by default and configurable through
`hy.errors._hy_colored_errors` and the environment variable
`HY_COLORED_ERRORS`.
Likewise, Hy model/AST color printing is now configurable and disabled by
default. The corresponding variables are `hy.models._hy_colored_ast_objects`
and `HY_COLORED_AST_OBJECTS`.
Closeshylang/hy#1429, closeshylang/hy#1510.
These changes make the Hy REPL more closely follow `code.InteractiveConsole`'s
class interface and provide minimally intrusive traceback print-out filtering
via a context manager that temporarily alters `sys.excepthook`. In other words,
exception messages from the REPL will no longer show Hy internal
code (e.g. importer, compiler and parsing functions).
The boolean variable `hy.errors._hy_filter_internal_errors` dynamically
enables/disables trace filtering, and the env variable
`HY_FILTER_INTERNAL_ERRORS` can be used as the initial value.
This commit refactors the exception/error classes and their handling.
It also retains Hy source strings and their originating file information, when
available, all throughout the core parser and compiler functions.
As well, with these changes, calling code is no longer responsible for providing
source and file details to exceptions,
Closeshylang/hy#657.
