lewis-lazy-logger 0.1.1

A simple reusable logger setup

Lewis' Lazy Logger

For when you're too lazy to setup loggers every time.

How to use

• Install the logger package by running pip install lewis-lazy-logger
• Import into your logger file like so: from lewis_lazy_logger import simple_logger_setup
• You can then initialise your logger and pick which options you want to enable:

logger = simple_logger_setup(
    level="info", (default = "debug")
    name="my_app", (default = None)
    use_rich=True, (default = False)
    log_to_file=True, (default = False)
    file_path="test.log", (default = "app.log")
    json_output=False, (default = False)
    max_bytes=10000, (default = 1000000)
    backup_count=5, (default = 3)
)

The available fields are:

• level: str - The log level you want to log (ie debug, info, etc)
• name: str - The name of your logger instance
• use_rich: bool - Make use of the Rich package for 'rich text and beautiful formatting in the terminal' (Overwrites json_output)
• log_to_file: bool - Write your logs to a log file
• file_path: str - The file path for your logs
• json_output: bool - Output logs in json format (Not usable with use_rich = True)
• max_bytes: int - The maximum file size of your log files
• backup_count: int - The number of backup log files allowed to be created
