discord-handler 0.0.3

A small discord handler for the logging module using webtokens

DiscordHandler

This class is using the integrated logging class from Python and requests from PyPi.

Feel free to change and add some good stuff.

Installing

Install and update using pip:

pip install discord-handler

Requirements

Installing requests:

pip install requests

Get Started:

First you need Discord or some Channels, where you have access to create a new Webhook.

You find Webhooks options in the channel settings. Create a new Webhook and copy the Webhook Url. Note: Do NOT give this URL out to the public like me in previous commits. (I changed it :P )

You can test the logging class by using the Test file.

If u want to know, how to send messages via POST and requests to Discord you can see an example in Discord file.

Mentions:

To use mentions use the paramter notify_users. You can use everyone without id and private mentions with id. To get your user id you need to activate the developer mode and right click on your name.

Example:

    from discord_handler import DiscordHandler

    webhook_url = "Your Webhook here"
    agent = "My Application"

    logger = logging.getLogger("My Application")
    logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)

    # Create formatter
    FORMAT = logging.Formatter(
        "%(asctime)s - %(name)s - %(levelname)s - %(message)s")

    # Create DiscordHandler and StreamHandler
    # This will mention everyone. You can use your id here for private mentions.
    # Emits log as raw text, so strings can contain Discord markdown formatting such as __underline__ or **bold**
    notify_users = ['everyone']
    discord_handler = DiscordHandler(webhook_url, agent, notify_users=notify_users, emit_as_code_block=False)
    stream_handler = logging.StreamHandler()

    # Add log level to handlers
    discord_handler.setLevel(logging.WARNING)
    stream_handler.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)

    # Add format to handlers
    discord_handler.setFormatter(FORMAT)
    stream_handler.setFormatter(FORMAT)

    # Add the handlers to the Logger
    logger.addHandler(discord_handler)
    logger.addHandler(stream_handler)

    logger.debug("Logger created")
