balsa (logging utility)

Simple to use package that sets up Python logging. With just a few lines of code get well formatted file and console or GUI logging.

Simple Example

log = get_logger(application_name)


def main():
    balsa = Balsa(application_name, 'james abel')
    balsa.init_logger()
    log.error('my error example')

This will yield output of this form:
