New submission from Chris Jerdonek: In certain situations (e.g. when logging while using unittest), log messages can start in the middle of a line, for example:
........................log: [INFO] foo .................................................. It was trickier than I thought it needed to be to get log messages to start at the beginning of a line, which seems like a reasonable expectation. It would be good if the logging module (or perhaps unittest for when running tests?) provided assistance here, either through documentation or an enhancement. The way I did this was wrap sys.stderr in a class that remembers the last written character, pass this to the test runner, and then subclass logging.StreamHandler to have emit() check whether a newline was the last character. But perhaps there is a much simpler way. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 179304 nosy: chris.jerdonek, r.david.murray, vinay.sajip priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: facilitate log output starting at beginning of line type: enhancement versions: Python 3.4 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16889> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
