New submission from Varun Agrawal <varagra...@gmail.com>: Currently, the logging module has a function `getLevelName` and directly accessing the `_nameToLevel` dict is poor practice bordering on non-pythonic.
It would be nice to have a simple method like `getNameLevel` in the module to retrieve the logger level given the name. This can then be used in things such as argument parsers so someone can pass in the logging level name and the logging level can be appropriately set. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 310005 nosy: varunagrawal priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: logging - public function to get level from name type: enhancement versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.4, Python 3.5, Python 3.6, Python 3.7, Python 3.8 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue32559> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
