[Zope-dev] logrotation/logreopening in ZTK-based applications
Hi, Zope 2 provides a command to ask it to re-open its log files thus supporting outside logrotation. We have a ZTK-based app and found that the server provides neither signal handling to rotate logs nor a zopectl command. Does anybody remember wether this was ever built? I see an old discussion on the Python list (http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2006-January/059566.html) but no conclusion. If this isn't in yet, does anybody know what the right place would be? (I guess the packages providing the main loops and configuring the process would be the right ones.)

There's a package called zc.signalhandler in the Zope Corporation repository that I'll be open-sourcing. It'll let you include something like this in your zope.conf: usr2 ZConfig.components.logger.loghandler.reopenFiles That will let you re-open ZConfig-configured log files based on a signal. (The "myapp" is a turdly bit caused by using the same schema bits as sections in the zope.conf schema.) -Fred -- Fred L.

I think ZTK should have a configurable log rotation built-in.

The tests pass with Python 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, and 2.7. I've added a brief README.txt to show how it's used; there's a more extensive doctest inside the package. -Fred -- Fred L.
