I usually use the python logging facility for doing logging in django
Any way the below is code i write
------------------
i hope you can figure out what is happening here
1. Prepare logging conf file and name it as logging.conf and put
under project directory
Here goes the typicall contents
------------------------------------------------
[loggers]
keys=root,scoremore,scoremore.sampleapp #loggers for different
apps
[handlers]
keys=consoleHandler,rfileHandler
[formatters]
keys=simpleFormatter
[logger_scoremore.sampleapp]
level=DEBUG
handlers=consoleHandler,rfileHandler
qualname=scoremore.sampleapp
propagate=0
[logger_scoremore]
level=DEBUG
handlers=consoleHandler,rfileHandler
qualname=scoremore
propagate=0
[logger_root]
level=DEBUG
handlers=consoleHandler,rfileHandler
[handler_consoleHandler] #display on console all message which are >=
DEBUG
class=StreamHandler
level=DEBUG #you need define as per your needs
formatter=simpleFormatter
args=(sys.stdout,)
[handler_rfileHandler] #also put on file all messages which are
greater that >= DEBUG
class=handlers.RotatingFileHandler
level=DEBUG
formatter=simpleFormatter
args=(%(log_path)s,'a',5000000,5) # we will pass the file path here
to which log messages to appear
[formatter_simpleFormatter]
format=%(asctime)s - %(name)s - %(levelname)s - %(message)s
datefmt=
---------------------------------
2. put down the following in settings.py
===============================
# initialization of logging module
#LOG_FILE_PATH in django
LOG_FILE_PATH = "\""+os.path.join(os.path.dirname(os.path.normpath
(__file__)),"logs.txt")+"\""
#LOG FILE NAME In django
LOG_FILE_NAME = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(os.path.normpath
(__file__)),'logging.conf')
#loading the logging configuration
logging.config.fileConfig(LOG_FILE_NAME,defaults=dict
(log_path=LOG_FILE_PATH))
3.so you have defined the configuration and also initialized the
logging (means telling various loggers ,handlers,formatters)
whenever you want use logging in any view or models do the below
-------------------
import logging
import logging.config
mlogger = logging.getLogger(__name__) #name is module name it chooses
the logger which contains name as prefix if none it chooses root
#now use this mlogger.debug to print message at debug level and
mlogger.info to print messages at info level
mlogger.debug("completed the question paper at present reviewing it")
Hope the above is clear for you to start...................
