Initialisation

Class "static" member

Logger is should be defined as a static  member of a class. Suggested name is "logger" . An example:

import logging
 
class B:
        # class logger 
        logger = logging.getLogger(__name__ + "." +__qualname__)

A global variable

Logger can be defined as a global variable  (i.e. out of a class scope).  This is not recommended way , because names may clash, if two or more modules will use the same name of variable. 

import logging

# global variable 
logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)

class B:
		# class content
		pass     

Printing information

The recommended way to access logger from within a class is   is __class__.logger 

__class__.logger.debug('This is a debug message')
__class__.logger.info('This is an info message')
__class__.logger.warning('This is a warning message')
__class__.logger.error('This is an error message')
__class__.logging.critical('This is a critical message')

...

User can configure logging level for:

• all classes of and modules  of given application (via root logger)

  Code Block
  import logging # setting ALL loggers logging.basicConfig(level=logging.ERROR)

  
  

• given particular class  (via via class logger )

  Code Block
  import logging #setting particular logger logging.getLogger('fully.qualified.class.name').setLevel(logging.INFO)

  
  

• module (via logger defined as global variable)

  Code Block
  import logging #setting particular logger logging.getLogger(A.B.__qualname__'fully.qualified.module.name').setLevel(logging.INFO)
