Project description

log4mongo-python is mongo database handler for python logging, part of log4mongo.org project. log4mongo-python is using pymongo driver - http://github.com/mongodb/mongo-python-driver

Requirements

  • python 2.7+

  • pymongo

  • mongo database

For more information see debian_requirements.txt and requirements.txt files.

Configuration

Example handler python configuration:

import logging
from log4mongo.handlers import MongoHandler

logger = logging.getLogger('test')
logger.addHandler(MongoHandler(host='localhost'))
logger.warning('test')

Contextual information

It is possible to decorate you document with contextual information. There are tow approaches.

1.) approach

import logging
from log4mongo.handlers import MongoHandler

handler = MongoHandler(host='localhost')
logger = logging.getLogger('test')
logger.addHandler(handler)
logging.LoggerAdapter(logger, {'ip': '127.0.0.1'}).info('test')

2.) approach

import logging
from log4mongo.handlers import MongoHandler

handler = MongoHandler(host='localhost')
logger = logging.getLogger('test')
logger.addHandler(handler)
logger.info('test', extra={'ip': '127.0.0.1'})

As you can see, second approach is more straightforward and there is no need to use LoggerAdapter.

Tests

Tested on evnironment

  • Xubuntu Linux 11.10 oneiric 64-bit

  • python 2.7.1+
