Currently I use for logging a custom logging system that works as follow:
I have a Log class that ressemble the following:
class Log:
def __init__(self):
self.script = ""
self.datetime = datetime.datetime.now().replace(second=0, microsecond=0)
self.mssg = ""
self.mssg_detail = ""
self.err = ""
self.err_detail = ""
I created a function decorator that perform a try/except on the function call, and add a message either to .mssg or .err on the Log object accordingly.
def logging(fun):
@functools.wraps(fun)
def inner(self, *args):
try:
f = fun(self, *args)
self.logger.mssg += fun.__name__ +" :ok, "
return f
except Exception as e:
self.logger.err += fun.__name__ +": error: "+str(e.args)
return inner
So usually a script is a class that is composed of multiple methods that are run sequentially. I hence run those methods (decorated such as mentionned above) , and lastly I upload the Log object into a mysql db.
This works quite fine and alright. But now I want to modify those items so that they integrate with the "official" logging module of python.
What I dont like about that module is that it is not possible to "save" the messages onto 1 log object in order to upload/save to log only at the end of the run. Rather each logging call will write/send the message to a file etc. - which create lots of performances issues sometimes. I could usehandlers.MemoryHandler , but it still doesn't seems to perform as my original system: it is said to collect messages and flush them to another handler periodically - which is not what i want: I want to collect the messages in memory and to flush them on request with an explicit function.
Anyone has any suggestions?
