TracLogging
v1 v2 4 4 Trac supports logging of system messages using the standard [http://docs.python.org/lib/module-logging.html logging module] that comes with Python. 5 5 6 Logging is configured in the {{{[logging]}}} section in [wiki:TracInitrac.ini].6 Logging is configured in the `[logging]` section in [wiki:TracIni#logging-section trac.ini]. 7 7 8 8 == Supported Logging Methods == 9 9 10 The log method is set using the `log_type` configuration option, which takes any of the following values: 10 The log method is set using the `log_type` option in [wiki:TracIni#logging-section trac.ini], which takes any of the following values: 11 11 12 '''none'':: Suppress all log messages. 12 '''file''':: Log messages to a file, specified with the `log_file` option in [wiki:TracIni trac.ini].13 '''file''':: Log messages to a file, specified with the `log_file` option in [wiki:TracIni#logging-section trac.ini]. Relative paths in `log_file` are resolved relative to the `log` directory of the environment. 13 14 '''stderr''':: Output all log entries to console ([wiki:TracStandalone tracd] only). 14 '''syslog''':: (UNIX) Send messages to local syslogd via named pipe `/dev/log`.15 '''eventlog''':: (Windows) Use the system's NT eventlog for Trac logging.15 '''syslog''':: (UNIX) Send all log messages to the local syslogd via named pipe `/dev/log`. By default, syslog will write them to the file /var/log/messages. 16 '''eventlog''':: (Windows) Use the system's NT Event Log for Trac logging. 16 17 17 18 == Log Levels == 18 19 19 The verbosity level of logged messages can be set using the ''log_level'' directive in [wiki:TracIni trac.ini]. The log level defines the minimum level of urgency required for a message to be logged.20 The verbosity level of logged messages can be set using the `log_level` option in [wiki:TracIni#logging-section trac.ini]. The log level defines the minimum level of urgency required for a message to be logged, and those levels are: 20 21 21 The levels are:22 22 '''CRITICAL''':: Log only the most critical (typically fatal) errors. 23 23 '''ERROR''':: Log failures, bugs and errors. … … 26 26 '''DEBUG''':: Trace messages, profiling, etc. 27 27 28 Note that starting with Trac 0.11.5 you can in addition enable logging of SQL statements, at debug level. This is turned off by default, as it's very verbose (set `[trac] debug_sql = yes` in TracIni to activate). 29 30 == Log Format == 31 32 Starting with Trac 0.10.4 (see [trac:#2844 #2844]), it is possible to set the output format for log entries. This can be done through the `log_format` option in [wiki:TracIni#logging-section trac.ini]. The format is a string which can contain any of the [http://docs.python.org/lib/node422.html Python logging Formatter variables]. Additonally, the following Trac-specific variables can be used: 33 '''$(basename)s''':: The last path component of the current environment. 34 '''$(path)s''':: The absolute path for the current environment. 35 '''$(project)s''':: The originating project's name. 36 37 Note that variables are identified using a dollar sign (`$(...)s`) instead of percent sign (`%(...)s`). 38 39 The default format is: 40 {{{ 41 log_format = Trac[$(module)s] $(levelname)s: $(message)s 42 }}} 43 44 In a multi-project environment where all logs are sent to the same place (e.g. `syslog`), it makes sense to add the project name. In this example we use `basename` since that can generally be used to identify a project: 45 {{{ 46 log_format = Trac[$(basename)s:$(module)s] $(levelname)s: $(message)s 47 }}} 48 28 49 ---- 29 50 See also: TracIni, TracGuide, TracEnvironment
