I haven't quite found the answer yet in other threads with similar titles. Let's say I have a logging.conf that looks like this:
[loggers]
keys=root,analyzer
[handlers]
keys=consoleHandler,analyzerFileHandler
[formatters]
keys=consoleFormatter,logFormatter
[logger_root]
level=DEBUG
handlers=consoleHandler,analyzerFileHandler
[logger_analyzer]
level=DEBUG
handlers=consoleHandler,analyzerFileHandler
qualname=analyzer
propagate=0
[handler_consoleHandler]
class=StreamHandler
level=INFO
formatter=consoleFormatter
args=(sys.stdout,)
[handler_analyzerFileHandler]
class=FileHandler
level=DEBUG
formatter=logFormatter
args=('analyzer.log','w')
[formatter_consoleFormatter]
format=%(asctime)s - %(name)s - %(levelname)s | %(message)s
datefmt=%m/%d/%Y %X
[formatter_logFormatter]
format=%(asctime)s - %(levelname)s | %(message)s
datefmt=%m/%d/%Y %X
A logger = logging.getLogger('analyzer') will send text to the log file and the console, how can I make that sys.stdout go towards a QPlainTextEdit() widget instead of the console?

OK looking at this post I made this code. The post's code is good, but for some reason it doesn't address the issue, you can comment out all the instances of logger and still end up with print events going to Qwidget. The logger, as is, has no real interaction with the rest of the program, it is just there. I thought I could rectify the problem by writing a class that took whatever I wanted as text and sent it off to print and logger respectively:
import logging
from logging.config import fileConfig
from os import getcwd
import sys
from PyQt4.QtCore import QObject,\
pyqtSignal
from PyQt4.QtGui import QDialog, \
QVBoxLayout, \
QPushButton, \
QTextBrowser,\
QApplication
class XStream(QObject):
_stdout = None
_stderr = None
messageWritten = pyqtSignal(str)
def flush( self ):
pass
def fileno( self ):
return -1
def write( self, msg ):
if ( not self.signalsBlocked() ):
self.messageWritten.emit(unicode(msg))
@staticmethod
def stdout():
if ( not XStream._stdout ):
XStream._stdout = XStream()
sys.stdout = XStream._stdout
return XStream._stdout
@staticmethod
def stderr():
if ( not XStream._stderr ):
XStream._stderr = XStream()
sys.stderr = XStream._stderr
return XStream._stderr
class XLogger():
def __init__(self, name):
self.logger = logging.getLogger(name)
def debug(self,text):
print text
self.logger.debug(text)
def info(self,text):
print text
self.logger.info(text)
def warning(self,text):
print text
self.logger.warning(text)
def error(self,text):
print text
self.logger.error(text)
class MyDialog(QDialog):
def __init__( self, parent = None ):
super(MyDialog, self).__init__(parent)
# setup the ui
self._console = QTextBrowser(self)
self._button = QPushButton(self)
self._button.setText('Test Me')
# create the layout
layout = QVBoxLayout()
layout.addWidget(self._console)
layout.addWidget(self._button)
self.setLayout(layout)
# create connections
XStream.stdout().messageWritten.connect( self._console.insertPlainText )
XStream.stderr().messageWritten.connect( self._console.insertPlainText )
self.xlogger = XLogger('analyzer')
self._button.clicked.connect(self.test)
def test( self ):
# log some stuff
self.xlogger.debug("Testing debug")
self.xlogger.info('Testing info')
self.xlogger.warning('Testing warning')
self.xlogger.error('Testing error')
if ( __name__ == '__main__' ):
fileConfig(''.join([getcwd(),'/logging.conf']))
app = None
if ( not QApplication.instance() ):
app = QApplication([])
dlg = MyDialog()
dlg.show()
The "cross logger" sends everything to the log and to the Qwidget, however it also sends everything but debug to the aptana console:
02/05/2013 17:38:42 - analyzer - INFO | Testing info
02/05/2013 17:38:42 - analyzer - WARNING | Testing warning
02/05/2013 17:38:42 - analyzer - ERROR | Testing error
While the analyzer.log has:
02/05/2013 17:38:42 - DEBUG | Testing debug
02/05/2013 17:38:42 - INFO | Testing info
02/05/2013 17:38:42 - WARNING | Testing warning
02/05/2013 17:38:42 - ERROR | Testing error
Weird that debug is the only one who doesn't make it to the Aptana console, removing consoleHandler from handlers under [logger_analyzer] in my logging.conf solves the problem of it writing out to the Aptana console, probably has something to do with the args=(sys.stdout,) under [handler_consoleHandler]. I suppose it solves my problem without having to code in a handler for the Qtext object and thus negate the logging.conf file. If someone has a more elegant solution to using a logging.conf file that somehow manages to redirect its console output to a Qwidget of your choice, please feel free to post. Thanks.
