How it works

Simple example

import logging
# create logger
lgr = logging.getLogger('myapp')
lgr.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
# add a file handler
fh = logging.FileHandler('myapp.log')
fh.setLevel(logging.WARNING)
# create a formatter and set the formatter for the handler.
frmt = logging.Formatter('%(asctime)s - %(name)s - %(levelname)s - %(message)s')
fh.setFormatter(frmt)
# add the Handler to the logger
lgr.addHandler(fh)
# You can now start issuing logging statements in your code
lgr.debug('debug message') # This won't print to myapp.log
lgr.info('info message') # Neither will this.
lgr.warning('Checkout this warning.') # This will show up in the log file.
lgr.error('An error goes here.') # and so will this.
lgr.critical('Something critical happened.') # and this one too.

Levels

CRITICAL > ERROR > WARNING > INFO > DEBUG > NOTSET

More to understand the work flow

formatter

Currently, the useful attributes in a LogRecord are described by:

attributes	discription
%(name)s	Name of the logger (logging channel)
%(levelno)s	Numeric logging level for the message (DEBUG, INFO, WARNING, ERROR, CRITICAL)
%(levelname)s	Text logging level for the message (“DEBUG”, “INFO”, “WARNING”, “ERROR”, “CRITICAL”)
%(pathname)s	Full pathname of the source file where the logging call was issued (if available)
%(filename)s	Filename portion of pathname
%(module)s	Module (name portion of filename)
%(lineno)d	Source line number where the logging call was issued (if available)
%(funcName)s	Function name
%(created)f	Time when the LogRecord was created (time.time() return value)
%(asctime)s	Textual time when the LogRecord was created
%(msecs)d	Millisecond portion of the creation time
%(relativeCreated)d	Time in milliseconds when the LogRecord was created, relative to the time the logging module was loaded (typically at application startup time)
%(thread)d	Thread ID (if available)
%(threadName)s	Thread name (if available)
%(process)d	Process ID (if available)
%(message)s	The result of record.getMessage(), computed just as the record is emitted
