Getting the line number or full stack trace on exceptions in a gremlin-groovy script

I have a gremlin-groovy script that traverses a database which is incredibly noisy. There are lots of cases with missing edges or properties. When I assume an edge or property exists and it doesn't an exception is thrown I get a very simple output like this:

javax.script.ScriptException: java.util.IllegalFormatConversionException: d != java.lang.String

I'd like to make it so when the script encounters a fatal exception, as the one above, it provides a stack dump or at least a line number so I can debug where it happened, similar to how java can print a full stack trace on fatal exceptions.

Any suggestions on how to get a better dump?

I recommend using the Gremlin terminal for this.

gremlin$ ./gremlin.sh

If you don't have this luxury (e.g. via a REST server), then you may want to place some intelligent 'printlns' in your traversal.
