Easily open files from Python tracebacks in iTerm2 directly in your editor

README.md

1. In iTerm2, go to Settings -> Profiles -> Advanced -> Smart Selection -> Edit
2. Click + to add a rule with the following values:
   • Notes: Python traceback
   • Regular Expression: File "(.+)", line ([0-9]+), in .+
   • Precision: Very High
3. Click Edit Actions... and add an action to open in your editor. For example, if you use VS Code, add an action with the following values:
   • Title: Open in VS Code
   • Action: Run Command...
   • Parameter: /usr/local/bin/code -r -g "\1":\2
4. Cmd+Click any location in the traceback to open the corresponding line directly in your editor. (Don't click the actual filename, click anywhere else on the same line.)

I found the parameter needs to be /usr/local/bin/code -r -g "\d/\1":\2 with iTerm 3.3.2

Thanks! Work great with PyCharm with the parameter: /usr/local/bin/pycharm --line \2 \1

To make this work for a remote SSH VS Code project:

/path/to/code --remote ssh-remote+<hostname> --reuse-window --goto "\1":\2

Replace <hostname> with the remote host's hostname.
