How to create a Log file - skaailet - Mar-24-2020
Hi,
im new in this coding thing and im creating a "program" that Ping some Ip's that I have on a list
and I would like that when the program ends pinging, it saves the information/results in a eventlog file text in order to save later that info in a Table
this is the code that im using
import os
import csv
import time
import datetime
import logging
def check_ping(hostname):
response = os.system("fping -r 10 -q " + hostname + " >/dev/null")
if response == 0:
check_ping = "[OK]"
else:
check_ping = "[Error]"
return check_ping
with open('ip-source.txt') as file:
dump = file.read()
dump = dump.splitlines()
for ip in dump:
os.system('cls')
print('Pinging now:', ip)
print('-'*60)
os.system('ping -n 2 {}'.format(ip))
print('-'*60)
time.sleep(5)
log = logging.getLogger('Loggername')
log.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
# How the information is presented. You probably only want the message part, squiggly brackets included.
formatter = logging.Formatter('{message}', style="{")
filehandler = logging.FileHandler('filename.txt', encoding='utf-8')
filehandler.setFormatter(formatter)
filehandler.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
log.addHandler(filehandler)
ip = "192.168.100.5"
name = "LaptopEdd"
log.info(f'{time.time():<15}|IP:{ip:>15}|Equipo:{name:>5}')
log.debug('message')
# There are more iirc, like log.critical('message')
