Python: an example of how to use logging module
def init_log(logname, filename, level=logging.DEBUG, console=True):
# make log file directory when not exist
directory = os.path.dirname(filename)
if not os.path.exists(directory):
os.makedirs(directory)
# set up logging to file - see previous section for more details
logging.basicConfig(level=level,
format='%(asctime)s %(name)-12s %(levelname)-8s %(message)s',
datefmt='%Y-%m-%d %H:%M',
filename=filename,
filemode='a')
# Now, define a couple of other loggers which might represent areas in your
# application:
logger = logging.getLogger(logname)
if console:
# define a Handler which writes INFO messages or higher to the sys.stderr
console = logging.StreamHandler()
console.setLevel(logging.INFO)
# set a format which is simpler for console use
formatter = logging.Formatter('%(name)-12s: %(levelname)-8s %(message)s')
# tell the handler to use this format
console.setFormatter(formatter)
# add the handler to the the current logger
logger.addHandler(console)
return logger
