Package Logging

Description

The Standard or user specifig logging is carried out by the log.py module of the logging package ka_uts_log using the standard- or user-configuration files in the logging package configuration directory:

  • <logging package directory>/cfg/ka_std_log.yml,

  • <logging package directory>/cfg/ka_usr_log.yml.

The Logging configuration of the logging package could be overriden by yaml files with the same names in the application package- or application data-configuration directories:

  • <application package directory>/cfg

  • <application data directory>/cfg.

Log message types

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

  1. debug

  2. info

  3. warning

  4. error
