bxlogs

bxlogs is a minimal Python module for a basic logging setup. It exposes a single function, get_logger, which acts as a wrapper around logging.getLogger to set a default output on stderr with a sensible format. That’s all.

Install

With pip:

pip install bxlogs

With poetry:

poetry add bxlogs

Usage

from bxlogs import get_logger

logger = get_logger("my.module")
logger.info("all set!")

The default level is INFO.

You can set the level to DEBUG using various means:

• debug=True
• level="DEBUG" or level=logging.DEBUG
• Set the environment variable BX_DEBUG

from bxlogs import get_logger

# All the calls below are equivalent

logger = get_logger("my.module", debug=True)
logger = get_logger("my.module", level="DEBUG")

import logging
logger = get_logger("my.module", level=logging.DEBUG)

import os
os.environ["BX_DEBUG"] = "1"
logger = get_logger("my.module")

You can set any other level using level=.

There’s nothing more. If you need anything more complex than that, use the Python logging module directly.
