This document describes the current stable version of Celery (5.5). For development docs, go here.

celery.utils.saferepr

Streaming, truncating, non-recursive version of repr().

Differences from regular repr():

• Sets are represented the Python 3 way: {1, 2} vs set([1, 2]).

• Unicode strings does not have the u' prefix, even on Python 2.

• Empty set formatted as set() (Python 3), not set([]) (Python 2).

• Longs don’t have the L suffix.

Very slow with no limits, super quick with limits.

celery.utils.saferepr.reprstream(stack: ~collections.deque, seen: ~typing.Set | None = None, maxlevels: int = 3, level: int = 0, isinstance: ~typing.Callable = <built-in function isinstance>) → Iterator[Any]

Streaming repr, yielding tokens.

celery.utils.saferepr.saferepr(o: Any, maxlen: int = None, maxlevels: int = 3, seen: Set = None) → str

Safe version of repr().

Warning

Make sure you set the maxlen argument, or it will be very slow for recursive objects. With the maxlen set, it’s often faster than built-in repr.
