Logmongo: Log messages to a capped MongoDB collections
Project description
Installation
pip install logmongo easy_install logmongo
What does it do?
- Gracefully creates capped collections.
- Auto expires oldest records first and solves log rotation.
- Writes complex (dicts and kwargs) log records.
- Logs asynchronously.
- Collects logs locally or remotely or in a central location.
- Allows access to logs via MongoDB queries and APIs.
Why should I use Logmongo instead of just pymongo?
Logmongo subclasses the pymongo Collection object and provides the following additions -
By default a new Logmongo object will create a 512M named capped collection
write method which:
- logs all passed keywords
- if ‘when’ is not in record, add ‘when’ timestamp to log record
- if ‘source’ is not in record, add ‘source’ add FQDN to log record
query method which:
allows keywords (kwargs) querying for example:
log.query( tags='finance' )
tail method which:
- prints all records to standard out which match the given query until killed
How does it work?
Example:
from logmongo import Logmongo log = Logmongo('logs') log.write( message='No required kwargs or fields!' ) entry = { 'tags':['but','we','like','tags'], 'level':'info' } log.write( entry ) # for more help check out help( logmongo )
