I've spent a bit of time looking through the site at Python logger questions hoping my would be resolved there. I've set up a logger with two stream handlers that have both different formats and levels of logging, here's a functional snippet from my codebase:
import os
import time
import logging
LOG_LEVELS = [logging.ERROR, logging.WARNING, logging.INFO, logging.DEBUG]
TEST_RESULT_LEVELV_NUM = 51
# http://stackoverflow.com/a/11784984/196832
def status(self, message, *args, **kws):
self._log(TEST_RESULT_LEVELV_NUM, message, args, **kws)
logging.addLevelName(TEST_RESULT_LEVELV_NUM, "RESULT")
logging.Logger.result = status
def setup_logging(level=0, quiet=False, logdir=None):
logger = logging.getLogger('juju-test')
ffmt = logging.Formatter('%(asctime)s %(name)s %(levelname)-8s: %(message)s')
cfmt = logging.Formatter('%(name)s %(levelname)s: %(message)s')
#logger.setLevel(0)
if level >= len(LOG_LEVELS):
level = len(LOG_LEVELS) - 1
if logdir:
if not os.path.exists(logdir):
os.makedirs(logdir)
logfile = os.path.join(logdir, 'juju-test.%s.log' % int(time.time()))
fh = logging.FileHandler(logfile)
# Always at least log to INFO for file, unless DEBUG is requested
fh.setLevel(LOG_LEVELS[level if level >= 2 else 2])
fh.setFormatter(ffmt)
logger.addHandler(fh)
if not quiet:
ch = logging.StreamHandler()
ch.setLevel(LOG_LEVELS[level])
ch.setFormatter(cfmt)
logger.addHandler(ch)
return logger
I've been using an argparse to feed this, but for testing purposes if you feed the following to function:
logger = setup_logging(level=1, logdir="/tmp/oofrab/")
logger.info('Informative!')
logger.warn('Whoa buddy!')
logger.error('Look what you did.')
logger.result("They told me not to make a custom logging level, I'll show them!")
logger.debug('Lots of bugs, man')
I'd expect to see status
, error
, and warn
in the console. Then status
, error
, warn
and info
in the log. However, I only see down to warn
in both console and log file, despite selecting logging.INFO
(key 2 in the LOG_LEVELS
list) for the file handler. Is this expected?
I'm not using basicConfig
or anything else when building the logger, why can't I have these two custom levels?
