I usually register a logger 'foo' within the application and one logger
for each module in the package, so the resulting logger hierarchy will
look like this:
foo
|__bar
|__baz
|__newt
|___witch
I set every loggers log level to DEBUG and use the respective logger in
You only need set foo's level to DEBUG and all of foo.bar, foo.baz etc.
will inherit that level. Setting the level explicitly on each logger is
not necessary,
A little bit off topic, don't you just need to set the **root** logger
debug level ?
I figured it out quite recently having problem configuring all my
loggers with just one click:
I have an application importing modules, the application is not always
aware of the logging support by the module. The only way to configure
these modules loggers is by configuring the root logger.
If I'm not wrong, this mechanism should have been definitively
described in the documentation within one the examples. The root logger
being of little use (from user POV), it is easy to forget its existence.
Actually it proved to me being very useful.
