cakelog

a lightweight logging library for python applications

This is a very small logging library to make logging in python easy and simple.

config

open the file:

 cakeconf.json

the file has the attribute:

logger: [
    {
        ...
    }
]

in this attribute you can add different logger-types the syntax of a logger is:

"
     
      ": "
      
       "

      
     

It is possible to add infinite loggers into the "logger"-section "path"-value works with all types of text-like-files (.txt, .log, ...)

Example of cakeconf.json:

logger: [
    {
        "common": "examplefolder/examplelog.txt",
        "second": "anotherfolder/2_examplelog.txt",
        "random": "randomfolder/log_rand.txt",
    }
]

functions

look_at_config()

• show the raw "logger"-section of the config file

create_logger(
   
    )

   

• instantiate a logger by the "name"-value set in the "logger"-section of the cakeconf.json
• "name"-value has to be set before calling this function

get_logger(
   
    )

   

• gives the "path"-value for a logger by the "name"-value set in the "logger"-section of the cakeconf.json
• both values need to be set in the cakeconf.json file

log(
   
    , 
    
     )

    
   

• logs the "msg"-value in the specified logger
• "name"-value needs to be set in the "logger"-section of the cakeconf.json
