minilog

A minimalistic logging wrapper for Python.

Usage

Every project should utilize logging, but for simple use cases, this requires a bit too much boilerplate. Instead of including all of this in your modules:

import logging

log = logging.getLogger(__name__)

def greet(name):
    log.info("Hello, %s!", name)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    logging.basicConfig(
        level=logging.INFO,
        format="%(levelname)s: %(name)s: %(message)s",
    )

with this package you can simply:

import log

def greet(name):
    log.info("Hello, %s!", name)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    log.init()

It will produce the exact same standard library logging records behind the scenes with automatic formatting for non-strings.

Installation

Install this library directly into an activated virtual environment:

$ pip install minilog

or add it to your Poetry project:

$ poetry add minilog
