Extended logging handlers with date-based filename formatting

Project description

logging_ext_ramwin

Extended logging handlers with date-based filename formatting for Python.

Features

  • Date-based filename patterns: Automatically create log files with names based on current date/time
  • Automatic cleanup: Keep only the most recent log files with configurable backup_count
  • Multi-process safe: Concurrent file operations with proper error handling
  • Flexible patterns: Support any strftime format codes (e.g., %Y-%m-%d, %Y-%m-%d_%H, etc.)
  • Easy integration: Drop-in replacement for standard logging handlers

Installation

pip install logging_ext_ramwin

Quick Start

Basic Daily Logging

import logging
from logging_ext import DateBasedFileHandler

# Create handler that creates daily log files
handler = DateBasedFileHandler(
    filename_pattern="logs/app-%Y-%m-%d.log",
    backup_count=7  # Keep last 7 days
)

formatter = logging.Formatter('%(asctime)s - %(name)s - %(levelname)s - %(message)s')
handler.setFormatter(formatter)

logger = logging.getLogger("my_app")
logger.setLevel(logging.INFO)
logger.addHandler(handler)

# Log some messages
logger.info("Application started")
logger.error("Something went wrong")

Hourly Log Rotation

from logging_ext import DateBasedFileHandler

# Create hourly log files
handler = DateBasedFileHandler(
    filename_pattern="logs/app-%Y-%m-%d_%H.log",
    backup_count=24  # Keep last 24 hours
)

Multi-Process Safe Logging

from logging_ext import ConcurrentDateBasedFileHandler

# Thread-safe version for multi-process applications
handler = ConcurrentDateBasedFileHandler(
    filename_pattern="logs/app-%Y-%m-%d.log",
    backup_count=7
)

Filename Patterns

Pattern Example Output Description
%Y-%m-%d 2024-01-15 Daily logs
%Y-%m-%d_%H 2024-01-15_14 Hourly logs
%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M 2024-01-15_14-30 Minute-based logs
%Y-%W 2024-03 Weekly logs
%Y-%m 2024-01 Monthly logs

Advanced Usage

Custom Cleanup Logic

handler = DateBasedFileHandler(
    filename_pattern="logs/app-%Y-%m-%d.log",
    backup_count=30  # Keep 30 days of logs
)

Combining with Other Handlers

import logging
from logging_ext import DateBasedFileHandler

# Create logger
logger = logging.getLogger("my_app")
logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)

# Console handler for immediate feedback
console_handler = logging.StreamHandler()
console_handler.setLevel(logging.INFO)

# File handler for persistent logging
file_handler = DateBasedFileHandler(
    filename_pattern="logs/app-%Y-%m-%d.log",
    backup_count=7
)
file_handler.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)

# Formatters
console_formatter = logging.Formatter('%(levelname)s - %(message)s')
file_formatter = logging.Formatter('%(asctime)s - %(name)s - %(levelname)s - %(message)s')

console_handler.setFormatter(console_formatter)
file_handler.setFormatter(file_formatter)

# Add handlers
logger.addHandler(console_handler)
logger.addHandler(file_handler)

API Reference

DateBasedFileHandler

DateBasedFileHandler(
    filename_pattern: str,      # Pattern for log filenames using strftime format
    backup_count: int = 0,      # Number of old log files to keep (0 = no cleanup)
    encoding: str = "utf-8",    # File encoding
    delay: bool = False,        # Delay file opening until first log message
    mode: str = "a"             # File opening mode
)

Usage 使用说明(Chinese)

这个库提供了以下主要功能:

  1. DateBasedFileHandler: 基础的日期文件日志处理器
  2. ConcurrentDateBasedFileHandler: 支持基本文件锁定的并发安全版本

主要特性:

  • ✅ 支持任意strftime格式模式(如%Y-%m-%d, %Y-%m-%d_%H等)
  • ✅ 自动清理旧的日志文件(通过backup_count参数)
  • ✅ 多进程并发安全(处理文件被其他进程删除的情况)
  • ✅ 自动创建必要的目录
  • ✅ 健壮的错误处理
  • ✅ 使用简单,与标准logging模块完美集成

安装和使用:

# 安装
pip install logging_ext_ramwin

# 使用
from logging_ext import DateBasedFileHandler

handler = DateBasedFileHandler(
    filename_pattern="logs/app-%Y-%m-%d.log",
    backup_count=7  # 保留最近7天的日志
)
