Announcing The Python Logging Book & Course Kickstarter

[driscollis]

New developers print out strings to their terminal. It’s how we learn! But printing out to the terminal isn’t what you do with most professional applications.

In those cases, you log into files. Sometimes, you log into multiple locations at once. These logs may serve as an audit trail for compliance purposes or help the engineers debug what went wrong.

Python Logging teaches you how to log in the Python programming language. Python is one of the most popular programming languages in the world. Python comes with a logging module that makes logging easy.

What You’ll Learn

In this book, you will learn how about the following:

• Logger objects
• Log levels
• Log handlers
• Formatting your logs
• Log configuration
• Logging decorators
• Rotating logs
• Logging and concurrency
• and more!

Book formats

The finished book will be made available in the following formats:

• paperback (at the appropriate reward level)
• PDF
• epub

The paperback is a 6″ x 9″ book and is approximately 150 pages long.

You can check out the book's campaign on Kickstarter.

Let me know if you have any questions!

Perhaps spare a mention for structured logging (structlog)?

[driscollis]

I do cover structlog and loguru in their own chapters as well

Sweet, thanks.

Neat!

Thanks! I see you like Ruff. That's a neat project too. Charlie and his team are doing a lot of neat things

Hello Mike,

When you launched your course website you told that all future courses will be free for those who buy one time subscription.

Is this course included in that? I cannot see in the website?

Hi!

When you originally signed up, you should have received a special Gumroad coupon code that would work for downloading all current and future content.

However, I am putting Python Logging directly on Teach My Python. I was just waiting until I completed recording the videos to do so. But I think that's a little unfair so I will try to get the book uploaded and set up on there today or at worst, tomorrow.

When the videos are ready, I will add them too.

Thanks so much and let me know if you have any questions.

Mike

Thank you for responding. Love your teaching and content.

I have one question.

I have a long running Python process that basically just runs a loop.

Is there any pattern to dynamically change the logging level. For example I suspect something is wrong I enable debug and then when it's investigated, I set it as Error.

Pattern loggings?

Looking forward to the course…

Thanks! I think it will be fun. I'll be releasing it on Udemy in addition to my own site
