A simple and lightweight logging library

microlog

Simple, lightweight logging

Getting started

from microlog import Logger
my_logs = Logger()
my_logs.log("Hello World!")

• Logs can be created with the following methods
  • log()
  • debug()
  • info()
  • warning()
  • error()
  • critical()
• Logs from a current session are saved in memory and can be viewed with the logs() method.

Options

There are four options available when creating a new Logger instance.

1. filename

When creating a new Logger, a file will be created in your current directory. By default, the name will be the current time with the format yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss. You may provide a custom name for the log file with the filename parameter.

Logger(filename = "my_logs")

The log method uses the append option for writing so old log files can be written to.

2. file

By default, a log file will be created when creating a new logger. Set the file parameter to False to prevent a log file from being created.

Logger(file = False)

3. console

Log messages will not be written to the console by default. Set the console parameter to True to see log messages in the console.

Logger(console = True)

4. format

All references to time will be local date-time by default. To use a UTC timestamp, set the format parameter to "ts". This will apply to default log file names and times in the log files.

Logger(format = "ts")
