I am working on a REST API using Flask. The API is currently divided across two Python 3.6 modules: update.py and vmware_exporters_support.py.
update.py logs the way I want. vmware_exporters_support.py does not log the way I want. I want vmware_exporters_support.py to use update.py's logging format without logging things twice. In update.py, the logging is set up with: from flask.logging import create_logger app = Flask('collector_api') logger = create_logger(app) import vmware_exporters_support And create_logger, which is part of Flask, is at https://github.com/pallets/flask/blob/1.1.x/src/flask/logging.py Then in vmware_exporters_support.py I'm setting up logging with: logger = logging.getLogger() It seems like this should just get the root logger from update.py, but I'm not sure it does really considering how differently it's acting. An illustrative log snippet looks like: [2021-01-21 12:12:29,810] INFO in update: Writing container yaml /data/vmware-exporter/vmware_exporter_1 2021-01-21.12:12:29 INFO Writing container yaml /data/vmware-exporter/vmware_exporter_1 The [2021-01-21 12:12:29,810] (with the square brackets) is coming from update.py, and the 2021-01-21.12:12:29 (without the square brackets) is coming from vmware_exporters_support.py What do I need to do to get vmware_exporters_support.py to use the same logging format as update.py? BTW, update.py is the __main__, not vmware_exporters_support.py. And I'm using Flask 1.1.2. Thanks in advance! -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
