Tired of writing custom logging code for your Python applications?
Logly is a ready to go logging utility that provides an easy way to log messages with different levels, colors, and many custom options. It is designed to be flexible, allowing you to customize the log messages based on your application's needs. Logly supports logging to both the console and a file, and it comes with built-in color-coded log levels for better visibility.

# Start logging will store the log in text file

print("Logged Messages:")
for message in logly.logged_messages:

If you encounter an error related to the default file path, you can use the following code snippet to set the default path:
import os
from logly import Logly
logly = Logly()
logly.start_logging()
# Set the default file path and maximum file size
logly.set_default_max_file_size(50)
logger = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__)), "log.txt")
logly.set_default_file_path(logger)This will set the default file path, and you can customize it according to your requirements.
if you want to set the default path for the log file, you can use the following code snippet
from logly import Logly
logly = Logly()
logly.set_default_file_path("log.txt")if you faced an error like FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'log.txt' you can use the following code snippet to set the default path
import os
from logly import Logly
logly = Logly() # initialize the logly
logly.start_logging() # make sure to include this or else the log will only display without storing it
logly.set_default_max_file_size(50) # optional
logger = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__)), "log.txt") # This will ensure the path location to create the log.txt on current directory
logly.set_default_file_path(logger)for more information, check the repository.
| Level | Color Code |
|---|---|
| INFO | CYAN |
| WARNING | YELLOW |
| ERROR | RED |
| DEBUG | BLUE |
| CRITICAL | BRIGHT RED |
| TRACE | BLUE |
| DEFAULT | WHITE |
You can use any of the following color codes for custom coloring:
| NAME | Color Code |
|---|---|
| CYAN | CYAN |
| YELLOW | YELLOW |
| RED | RED |
| BLUE | BLUE |
| BRIGHT RED | CRITICAL |
| WHITE | WHITE |
For example, you can use color=logly.COLOR.RED for the red color.
If you want to use logly in your project files without creating a new object in each Python file or class, you can create a file named logly.py. In this file, initialize logly and configure the defaults. Now, you can easily import and use it throughout your project:
logly.py
# logly.py in your root or custom path
# Import Logly
from logly import Logly
import os
logly = Logly()
logly.start_logging()
# Set the default file path and maximum file size
logly.set_default_max_file_size(50)
logger = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__)), "log.txt") # This will ensure the path location to create the log.txt
logly.set_default_file_path(logger)
# Start logging again
logly.start_logging()you can now use the logly by
main.py
from logly import logly # make sure to import it some IDE may automatically import it on top
logly.info("msg","hello this is logly", color=logly.COLOR.RED) # with custom color of red[XXXX-XX-XX XX:XX: XX] INFo: msg: hello this is logly
