anlogger

A python3 module to assist in setting up logging.

Install

Usage

from anlogger import Logger
logger_obj = Logger(name="appname", default_loglevel="INFO", fmt=None, syslog=None, syslog_facility=None, log_to_console=True, console_stream='stderr')
logger = logger_obj.get()
logger.info("Message on info-level")

name is application name used in logging (REQUIRED).

default_loglevel is the logging level which is used unless LOGLEVEL environment variable is set.

fmt is the format used for formatting the logger. Se python's logging module documentation for formattion options.

syslog is the syslog configuration. Set to True to use local syslog, or a tuple of ("ipaddress-string", port-int) for remote logging.

syslog_facility is one of well-known syslog facilities. If syslog is used but syslog_facility is not set, the user facility is used by default.

log_to_console defines whether the logging is also outputted to the console. Default is True.

console_stream defines which output stream to use for console logging. Accepted values are stderr (default) and stdout.

See logger.Logger class code for additional details.
