Can have boilerplate code for logging separate.
Example:

import my_log

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

if __name__ == '__main__':
   my_log.logger.info('Start')
   value = xyz(33, 50)
   # value = xyz(33, '50') # make error
   my_log.logger.debug(value)
   my_log.logger.info('Finish')
   print(value)

logg.log:

Output:
2018-07-09 20:56:52,397 - my_log - INFO - Start
2018-07-09 20:56:52,397 - my_log - DEBUG - 83

Logger setup that gets import:

# my_log.py
import logging

logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)

# create a file handler
handler = logging.FileHandler('logg.log')
handler.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)

# create a logging format
formatter = logging.Formatter('%(asctime)s - %(name)s - %(levelname)s - %(message)s')
handler.setFormatter(formatter)

# add the handlers to the logger
logger.addHandler(handler)
