You should be using the logging module. Here is an example:

import logging

logging.debug('debug message')
logging.info('information message')
logging.warning('A warning message')
logging.error('Error Description')
logging.critical('Critical messages should be here')

Try something like this: logging.basicConfig(filename='file.log', filemode='w', format='%(name)s - %(levelname)s - %(message)s') – Nitish Jul 08 '19 at 17:00

If you prefer to just output some common text for logging then you can opt in the print() function of Python or else of you want to log like the proper way that it should be then you can use the logging API provided by the Python itself as a library.

`

import logging
logging.basicConfig(filename='example.log', level=logging.debug)
logging.debug("Debugging")

`
