logger option , where is the file? - korenron - Apr-25-2021

Hello ,
I notice in many examples there is a logger

import loggin 
 logger = logging.getLogger('localGATT')
 logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)

but I don't see any referance to the file
where can I find it ?
or is it something I need to setup also ? - of so what to do ?
will this do?

logging.basicConfig(filename='app.log', filemode='w', format='%(name)s - %(levelname)s - %(message)s')

and then in the file I will get all the debug data ?

Thanks,

Look at this post for basic setup.
I would advice to use Loguru
Then all boilerplate code that no one can remember is gone.

from loguru import logger
logger.add("error.log", backtrace=True, diagnose=True)

def add(x, y):
   try:
       return(x + y)
   except Exception as error:
       logger.exception('msg')

if __name__ == '__main__':
    print(add(5, '50')) # Make error

error.log

Output:2021-04-25 15:25:25.155 | ERROR    | __main__:add:8 - msg
Traceback (most recent call last):
