logging in different files code example

Example 1: python logging to file

import logging
import sys

logger = logging.getLogger()
logger.setLevel(logging.INFO)
formatter = logging.Formatter('%(asctime)s | %(levelname)s | %(message)s', 
                              '%m-%d-%Y %H:%M:%S')

stdout_handler = logging.StreamHandler(sys.stdout)
stdout_handler.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
stdout_handler.setFormatter(formatter)

file_handler = logging.FileHandler('logs.log')
file_handler.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
file_handler.setFormatter(formatter)

logger.addHandler(file_handler)
logger.addHandler(stdout_handler)

Example 2: python logging to file

import logging

"""
DEBUG
INFO
WARNING
ERROR
CRITICAL
"""
# asctime: time of the log was printed out
# levelname: name of the log
# datefmt: format the time of the log
# give DEBUG log
logging.basicConfig(format='%(asctime)s %(levelname)-8s [%(filename)s:%(lineno)d] %(message)s',
    datefmt='%d-%m-%Y:%H:%M:%S',
    level=logging.DEBUG,
    filename='logs.txt')

logger = logging.getLogger('my_app')

logger.debug("This is a debug log")
logger.info("This is an info log")
logger.critical("This is critical")
logger.error("An error occurred")

Example 3: logging store info to different files

import logging
formatter = logging.Formatter('%(asctime)s %(levelname)s %(message)s')


def setup_logger(name, log_file, level=logging.INFO):
    """To setup as many loggers as you want"""

    handler = logging.FileHandler(log_file)        
    handler.setFormatter(formatter)

    logger = logging.getLogger(name)
    logger.setLevel(level)
    logger.addHandler(handler)

    return logger

# first file logger
logger = setup_logger('first_logger', 'first_logfile.log')
logger.info('This is just info message')

# second file logger
super_logger = setup_logger('second_logger', 'second_logfile.log')
super_logger.error('This is an error message')

def another_method():
   # using logger defined above also works here
   logger.info('Inside method')
