I've been struggling with the logging module in the stdlib which seems
to me rather counter-intuitive:
For some reason it refuses to recognize configuration options when
they are set inside a class so I have had to initialize logging and
set the configuration options in the global scope of my module with
logging.basicConfig.
Here's what I did within the class setup method:
<snip>
self.log = logging.getLogger()
# format
log_format= self.local.format
date_format = self.local.date_format or "%d.%m.%y %H:%M:%S"
self.logfile= self.local.logfile if self.local.log_to_file else None
if self.logfile:
handler = logging.FileHandler(
self.logfile, self.local.logfile_mode)
else:
stream = None # can be sys.st something or other stream
handler = logging.StreamHandler()
format = logging.Formatter(log_format, date_format)
handler.setFormatter(format)
self.log.addHandler(handler)
self.log.setLevel(self.local.log_level or logging.DEBUG)
</snip>
self.log gets initialized but the formatting options do not get
recognized... this is a pain...
What I do want is something like the log4r module in Ruby:
e.g.
require 'log4r'
require 'getoptlong'
require 'pathname'
class Common
def init_log
@log = Log4r::Logger.new(self.class.name)
@log.add Log4r::Outputter.stdout
@log.info 'initialized'
end
end
class Builder < Common
def initialize(path, options)
init_log
if File.exist?(path)
@path = Pathname.new(path)
@options = options
else
@log.error "not a valid file or directory"
exit
end
end
def build()
case @path.ftype
when 'file'
filehandlers = {
'.txt' => TxtHandler,
'.java' => JavaHandler,
'.c' => CHandler,
'.cpp' => CppHandler,
'.py' => PyHandler,
'.pyx' => PyxHandler,
'.exe' => ExeHandler,
'.hs' => HaskellHandler,
'.rb' => RubyHandler,
'.dot' => DotHandler,
'.mp3' => MP3Handler,
'.wav' => WavHandler,
'.csd' => CSoundHandler,
'.orc' => CSoundHandler,
'.sco' => CSoundHandler,
[EMAIL PROTECTED](@path, @options).handle()
when 'directory'
@log.info "[EMAIL PROTECTED] is a directory"
end
end
end
etc...
still to prefer to code in python though....
Just my 2c...
