Code Examples

Basic usage example:

import logging

from telegram_handler import TelegramLoggingHandler

BOT_TOKEN = '1612485124:AAFW9JXxjqY9d-XayMKh8Q4-_iyHkXSw3N8'
CHANNEL_NAME = 'example_channel_logger'


def main():
    telegram_log_handler = TelegramLoggingHandler(BOT_TOKEN, CHANNEL_NAME)
    my_logger = logging.getLogger('My-Logger')
    my_logger.setLevel(logging.INFO)
    my_logger.addHandler(logging.StreamHandler())
    my_logger.addHandler(telegram_log_handler)

    for i in range(5):
        my_logger.error(f'iterating {i}..')


if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

Another option is to add the handler to the root logger:

import logging

from telegram_handler import TelegramLoggingHandler

BOT_TOKEN = '1612485124:AAFW9JXxjqY9d-XayMKh8Q4-_iyHkXSw3N8'
CHANNEL_NAME = 'example_channel_logger'


def main():
    telegram_log_handler = TelegramLoggingHandler(BOT_TOKEN, CHANNEL_NAME)
    logging.basicConfig(
        handlers = [
            telegram_log_handler
        ],
        level=logging.INFO,
        format='%(asctime)s | %(levelname)s | %(name)s | %(message)s'
    )
    my_logger = logging.getLogger('My-Logger')
    for i in range(5):
        my_logger.error(f'iterating {i}..')


if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()
