Logging from Custom Apps¶
Alliance Auth provides a logger for use with custom apps to make everyone’s life a little easier.
Using the Extensions Logger¶
AllianceAuth provides a helper function to get the logger for the current module to reduce the amount of code you need to write.
from allianceauth.services.hooks import get_extension_logger
logger = get_extension_logger(__name__)
This works by creating a child logger of the extension logger which propagates all log entries to the parent (extensions) logger.
Changing the Logging Level¶
By default, the extension logger’s level is set to DEBUG
.
To change this, uncomment (or add) the following line in local.py
.
LOGGING['handlers']['extension_file']['level'] = 'INFO'
(Remember to restart your supervisor workers after changes to local.py
)
This will change the logger’s level to the level you define.
Options are: (all options accept entries of levels listed below them)
DEBUG
INFO
WARNING
ERROR
CRITICAL
