repoze.debug 0.1

Installation

Install using setuptools, e.g. (within a virtualenv):

$ easy_install repoze.debug

Configuration via Python

Wire up the middleware in your application:

from repoze.debug.responselogger import ResponseLoggingMiddleware
from logging import getLogger
middleware = ResponseLoggingMiddleware(
               app,
               max_bodylen='3KB',
               logger=getLogger('foo')
              )

The configuration options are as follows:

- ``max_bodylen`` should be the size in bytes (optionally followed by
  KB, MB, or GB) of the response body that should be logged.

- ``logger`` is a PEP 282 logger instance (any).

Configuration via Paste

Wire the middleware into a pipeline in your Paste configuration, for example:

[filter:responselogger]
use = egg:repoze.debug#responselogger
filename = %(here)s/response.log
# if max_bodylen is unset or is 0, it means do not limit body logging
# default is 0
max_bodylen = 3KB
# if max_logsize is unset or is 0, it means do not limit logsize; default is
# 100MB
max_logsize = 100MB
# if backup_count is 0, do not rotate the logfile.  Default is 10.
backup_count = 10

...

[pipeline:main]
pipeline = egg:Paste#cgitb
           responselogger
           myapp

The middleware will log response data to filename.

Operation

Once the middleware is in the pipeline, it will log requests and responses to the logger. An example of the log output for a request follows:

--- REQUEST 860724193 at Fri Jun 13 18:40:47 2008 ---

--- end REQUEST 860724193 ---

Each request is tagged with a (random) identifier. A response is also written to the log, and can be matched up to the request that generated it via the identifier. Here’s an example of a response in the log:
