Handle specific exception type in python -

i have code handles exception, , want specific if it's specific exception, , in debug mode. example:

try:     stuff() except exception e:     if _debug , e keyboardinterrupt:         sys.exit()     logging.exception("normal handling")

as such, don't want add a:

except keyboardinterrupt:     sys.exit()

because i'm trying keep difference in debug code minimal

well, really, should keep handler keyboardinterrupt separated. why want handle keyboard interrupts in debug mode, swallow them otherwise?

that said, can use isinstance check type of object:

try:     stuff() except exception e:     if _debug , isinstance(e, keyboardinterrupt):         sys.exit()     logger.exception("normal handling")
