A module for convenient yet powerful file, console, and syslog logging
BASIC USAGE
from logger import Logger
log = Logger(threshold=0) # create the log object and give it
# a threshold of 0
log.log(2, 'all done') # send a log of priority 2 (not printed)
log(0, 'error: bandits!') # send a log of priority 0 (printed)
log.write(0, stringvar) # do a raw write on the file object
DESCRIPTION
Each logging object is given a threshold. Any messages that are
then sent to that object are logged only if their priority meets or
exceeds the threshold. Lower numerical priority means that a
message is more important. For example: if a log object has
threshold 2, then all messages of priority 2, 1, 0, -1, etc will be
logged, while those of priority 3, 4, etc. will not. I suggest the
following scale:
LOG PRIORITY MEANING
-1 failure - cannot be ignored
0 important message - printed in default mode
1 informational message - printed with -v
2 debugging information
THRESHOLD MEANING
-1 quiet mode (-q) only failures are printed
0 normal operation
1 verbose mode (-v)
2 debug mode (-vv or -d)
It can be extended farther in both directions, but that is rarely
useful. It can also be shifted in either direction. This might be
useful if you want to supply the threshold directly on the command
line but have trouble passing in negative numbers. In that case,
add 1 to all thresholds and priorities listed above.
CLASSES
There are three primary classes defined in this module:
Logger Class for basic file and console logging
SysLogger Class for syslog logging
LogContainer Class for wrapping multiple other loggers together
for convenient use
Instances of all of these support the same basic methods:
obj.log(priority, message) # log a message with smart formatting
obj.write(priority, message) # log a string in a ver raw way
obj(priority, message) # shorthand for obj.log(...)
Different classes support other methods as well, but this is what you
will mostly use.
ADVANCED
There are a number of options available for these classes. These are
documented below in the respective classes and methods. Here is a
list of some of the things you can do:
* make a prefix contain a string which gets repeated for more
important logs. (prefix)
* directly test if a log object WOULD log, so you can do
complicated stuff, like efficient for loops. (test)
* make the priority, threshold arbitrary objects, with a
home-rolled test to see if it should log. (test)
* give log containers a "master threshold" and define arbitrary
behavior based on it. Examples include:
- only pass on messages of sufficient priority (ragardless of
the thresholds of the log ojects).
- only pass on messages to objects whose thresholds are
(numerically) lower than the master threshold.
SEE ALSO
Take a look at the examples at the end of this file in the test &
demo section.

I welcome comments, questions, bug reports and requests... I'm very

BASIC OPTIONS:
There are a couple of basic options that are commonly needed.
These are attribues of instances of class Logger.
preprefix
Text that will be printed at the start of each line of
output (for log()ged, not write()en messages). This might
be your program's name, for example.
log.preprefix = 'myprog'
If preprefix is callable, then it will be called for each
log and the returned value will be used. This is useful for
printing the current time.
import time
def printtime():
return time.strftime('%m/%d/%y %H:%M:%S ',
time.localtime(time.time()))
log.preprefix = printtime
file_object
This is the file object to which output is directed. If it
is None, then the logs are quietly dropped.
There are other options described in the next section, but these
are the most commonly used.

class SysLogger:
"""A class for file-object logging
USAGE:
For the most part, SysLogger instances are used just like Logger
instances. Notable exceptions:
* prefixes aren't used (at least not as they are for Logger)
* map_priority is pretty important because it controls
conversion between Logger priorities and syslog priorities
* although priority/threshold/test works the same, there is
also maskpri and your syslog config which will limit what
gets logged. Keep this in mind if you see strange behavior.
The most sensible use of this class will be will a LogContainer.
You can create one Logger instance for writing to (say) stderr,
a second for writing to a verbose log file, and a SysLogger
instance for writing important things to syslog so your automated
log-readers can see them. Then you put them all in a log container
for convenient access. That would go something like this:
from logger import Logger, SysLogger, LogContainer
fo = open(file_log, 'w')
file_logger = Logger(4, file_object=fo) # print 4 and lower
console_logger = Logger(1) # print 1 and lower
syslog_logger = SysLogger(0) # print 0 and lower
log = LogContainer([file_logger, console_logger, syslog_logger])
log(3, 'some debugging message') # printed to file only
log(1, 'some warning message') # printed to file and console
log(0, 'some error message') # printed to all (ERR level)
log(-1, 'major problem') # printed to all (CRIT level)

class LogContainer:
"""A class for consolidating calls to multiple sub-objects
SUMMARY:
If you want a program to log to multiple destinations, it might
be convenient to use log containers. A log container is an
object which can hold several sub-log-objects (including other
log containers). When you log to a log container it passes the
message on (with optional tests) to each of the log objects it
contains.
USAGE:
The basic usage is very simple. LogContainer's simply pass on
logs to the contained Logger, SysLogger, or LogContainer
objects.
from logger import Logger, LogContainer
log_1 = Logger(threshold=1, file_object=sys.stdout)
log_2 = Logger(threshold=2, preprefix='LOG2')
log = LogContainer([log_1, log_2])
log(1, 'message') # printed by log_1 and log_2
log(2, 'message') # only printed by log_2
A more common example would be something like this:
from logger import Logger, LogContainer
system = Logger(threshold=1, file_object=logfile)
debug = Logger(threshold=5, file_object=sys.stdout)
log = LogContainer([system, debug])
log(3, 'sent to system and debug, but only debug will print it')
log(0, 'very important, both will print it')
In this mode, log containers are just shorthand for calling all
contained objects with the same priority and message.
When a log object is held in a container, it can still be used
directly. For example, you can still do
debug(3, ['this will not be sent to the system log, even if its',
' threshold is set very high'])
(Yes, you can send lists of strings and they will be formatted
on different lines. The log methods are pretty smart.)
There are more examples in the SysLogger docs.
