Hallöchen! Is there a portable and simply way to direct file-like IO to simply nothing? I try to implement some sort of NullLogging by saying
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- import logging if options.logging: logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG, filename=options.logfile, filemode="w", format='%(asctime)s %(name)s %(levelname)s %(message)s') else: # redirect logging to a memory buffer in order to simply ignore it. import StringIO logging.basicConfig(stream=StringIO.StringIO()) --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- However, this consumes memory. Is there a better way?
