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.)

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.
