I want to configure the Python logging module to manage two separate log files, allowing me to do something like this:
import logging import logging.config logging.config.fileConfig("mylogging.conf") root = logging.getLogger() test = logging.getLogger("test") root.debug("This is a message targeted to the root log file") test.debug("This is a message targeted to the test log file") I have been unable to get this to work. My current conf file looks like this: [formatters] keys: simple [handlers] keys: root,test [loggers] keys: root,test [formatter_simple] format=%(asctime)s - %(levelname)s - %(message)s [handler_root] class: handlers.RotatingFileHandler args: ('/var/log/root.log', 'a', 1024000, 14) formatter: simple [handler_test] class: handlers.RotatingFileHandler args: ('/var/log/test.log', 'a', 1024000, 14) formatter: simple [logger_root] level: DEBUG handlers: root qualname: [logger_test] level: DEBUG handlers: test qualname: With this setup, all of my log messages go to test.log. root.log is created, but nothing gets logged to it. What do I need in my logging conf file to have two separate log file destinations? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
