python assert 在正式产品里禁用的手法直接-O即可

How do I disable assertions in Python?

There are multiple approaches that affect a single process, the environment, or a single line of code.

I demonstrate each.

For the whole process

Using the -O flag (capital O) disables all assert statements in a process.

For example:

$ python -Oc "assert False"

$ python -c "assert False"

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>

AssertionError

Note that by disable I mean it also does not execute the expression that follows it:

$ python -Oc "assert 1/0"

$ python -c "assert 1/0"

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>

ZeroDivisionError: integer division or modulo by zero

For the environment

You can use an environment variable to set this flag as well.

This will affect every process that uses or inherits the environment.

E.g., in Windows, setting and then clearing the environment variable:

C:\>python -c "assert False"

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>

AssertionError

C:\>SET PYTHONOPTIMIZE=TRUE

C:\>python -c "assert False"

C:\>SET PYTHONOPTIMIZE=

C:\>python -c "assert False"

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>

AssertionError

Same in Unix (using set and unset for respective functionality)

Single point in code

You continue your question:

if an assertion fails, I don't want it to throw an AssertionError, but to keep going.

If you want the code that fails to be exercised, you can catch an assertion error:

try:

    assert False, "we know this fails"

except AssertionError as e:

    print(repr(e))

which prints:

AssertionError('we know this fails',)

and you'll keep going from the point you handled the AssertionError.

References

From the assert documentation:

An assert statement like this:

assert expression #, optional_message

Is equivalent to

if __debug__:

    if not expression: raise AssertionError #(optional_message)

And,

the built-in variable __debug__ is True under normal circumstances, False when optimization is requested (command line option -O).

From the usage docs:

-O

Turn on basic optimizations. This changes the filename extension for compiled (bytecode) files from .pyc to .pyo. See also PYTHONOPTIMIZE.

and

PYTHONOPTIMIZE

If this is set to a non-empty string it is equivalent to specifying the -O option. If set to an integer, it is equivalent to specifying -O multiple times.
