Well done Yarin! Some comments. 1. Change those time_expire=99999999 into time_expire=None please. The clumsy 99999999 trick was my early "invention" before I know the time_expire=None approach.
2. My another later improvement is to write the log file at {web2py
path}/applications/{your app}/static/app.log
so that developer can easily access the log file by
http://your_host/your_app/static/app.log
Well, you can refer to the attachment for my latest implementation. Some more
trick inside.
3. @Massimo, I suggested to include the applog.py into welcome/model/applog.py
since day1 I invented this little component. Only this way people will have an
official place to always have the latest code, rather than dig some
not-the-latest post from different places. So please do consider it this time.
4. @Yarin, when last time I said "putting the web2py db instance, rather than a
filename, to initialize your SQLiteHandler() class", I mean something like:
def _init_sqlite_log(level=logging.DEBUG):
handler = SQLiteHandler( db ) # db is defined by: db =
DAL('sqlite://storage.sqlite')
# or
handler = SQLiteHandler( DAL('sqlite://log.sqlite') )
There is some more implementation to do, but you get the idea.
5. With respect to GAE, this was my "concept vehicle":
if request.env.web2py_runtime_gae: # if running on Google App Engine
handler=logging.handlers.HTTPHandler(request.env.http_host,URL(r=request,f='log'))
# assuming there is an optional log action
but I never test it. I think a practical solution would be implement some log
handler which wraps GAE's own log facility.
