Appendix

Package Logging

Description

Logging use the module log.py of the logging package ut_log. The module supports two Logging types:

1. Standard Logging (std) or

2. User Logging (usr).

The Logging type can be defined by one of the values ‘std’ or ‘usr’ of the parameter log_type; ‘std’ is the default. The different Logging types are configured by one of the following configuration files:

1. log.std.yml or

2. log.usr.yml

The configuration files can be stored in different configuration directories (ordered by increased priority):

1. <package directory of the log package ut_log>/cfg,

2. <package directory of the application package ui_eviq_srr>/cfg,

3. <application directory of the application eviq>/cfg,

The active configuration file is the configuration file in the directory with the highest priority.

Examples

Site-packages-path = /appl/eviq/.pyenv/versions/3.11.12/lib/python3.11/site-packages Log-package = ut_log Application-package = ui_eviq_srr Application-home-path = /appl/eviq

Examples of log configuration-files

Log Configuration
Type	Directory Type	Directory	File
std	Log package	<Site-packages-path>/<Log-package>/cfg	log.std.yml
	Application package	<Site-packages-path>/<application-package>/cfg
	Application	<application-home-path>/cfg
usr	Log package	<site-packages-path>/ut_log/cfg	log.usr.yml
	Application package	<site-packages-path>/ui_eviq_srr/cfg
	Application	<application-path>/cfg

Log message types

Logging defines log file path names for the following log message types: .

1. debug

2. info

3. warning

4. error

5. critical

Log types and Log directories

Single or multiple Application log directories can be used for each message type:

Log types and directoriesg

Log type	Log directory
long	short	multiple	single
debug	dbqs	dbqs	logs
info	infs	infs	logs
warning	wrns	wrns	logs
error	errs	errs	logs
critical	crts	crts	logs

Application parameter for logging

Application parameter used in log naming

Name	Decription	Value	Description	Default	Example

package	package name				ui_eviq_srr
cmd	command				evupreg
log_type	Logging Type	std:	Standard logging	std	std
		usr:	User Logging
log_ts_type	Logging timestamp type	ts:	Sec since 1.1.1970	ts	ts
		dt:	Datetime
log_sw_single_dir	Use single log directory	True	use single dir.	True	True
		False	use muliple dir.

Name	Definition
Python modules	Files with suffix .py; they could be empty or contain python code; other modules can be imported into a module.
Python package files	Files within a python package.
Python dunder modules	Python modules which are named with leading and trailing double underscores.

Python Special Files

Python special files

Name	Type	Description
py.typed	Type checking marker file	The py.typed file is a marker file used in Python packages to indicate that the package supports type checking. This is a part of the PEP 561 standard, which provides a standardized way to package and distribute type information in Python.

Python Special Modules

Python special modules

Name	Type	Description
__init__.py	Package directory marker file	The dunder (double underscore) module __init__.py is used to execute initialisation code or mark the directory it contains as a package. The Module enforces explicit imports and thus clear namespace use and call them with the dot notation.
__main__.py	entry point for the package	The dunder module __main__.py serves as package entry point point. The module is executed when the package is called by the interpreter with the command python -m <package name>.
__version__.py	Version file	The dunder module __version__.py consist of assignment statements used in Versioning.

Python classes

Overview

Python classes overview

Name	Description
Python class	A class is a container to group related methods and variables together, even if no objects are created. This helps in organizing code logically.
Python static class	A class which contains only @staticmethod or @classmethod methods and no instance-specific attributes or methods.
