Currently, you having an issue with raising the ValueError
exception inside another caught exception. The reasoning for this solution doesn't make much sense to me but if you change
raise Exception('Invalid json: {}'.format(e))
To
raise Exception('Invalid json: {}'.format(e)) from None
Making your end code.
with open(json_file) as j:
try:
json_config = json.load(j)
except ValueError as e:
raise Exception('Invalid json: {}'.format(e)) from None
You should get the desired result of catching an exception.
e.g.
>>> foo = {}
>>> try:
... var = foo['bar']
... except KeyError:
... raise KeyError('No key bar in dict foo') from None
...
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 4, in <module>
KeyError: 'No key bar in dict foo'
Sorry I can't give you an explanation why this works specifically but it seems to do the trick.
UPDATE:
Looks like there's a PEP doc explaining how to suppress these exception inside exception warnings.
