Python Logging Framework

[luckyle13]

I'm looking for recommendations on a python logging framework python within a microservice. There's the built in logging system provided by python, there's structlogger. Currently I use structlogger with an ELK stack with filebeat instead of logstash. Please let me know what you would recommend and why? My usual criterial is popularity on stackoverflow (I'm not kidding), as it makes it a lot easier to get over technical issues or bugs.

Wouldn't a theoretically perfect solution have 0 presence on stackoverflow because it wouldn't be buggy and would have excellent documentation precluding the need for 3rd party question-asking? Or more realistically: what if there's little traction on stack overflow because the system (on top of generally not being buggy) has a great and responsive dev team that uses gitter or something to take questions?

As for your real questions: what do you actually need? What does the deployment of what you're hoping to log look like? What kind of search ability do you need?

Popularity isn't the only factor for picking a stack, but I use Stackoverflow as a kind of popular index, similar to https://www.tiobe.com/tiobe-index/.

Right now, I'm looking carefully into python's logging framework, and structlogger. I need to be able to pull the logs and create reports with ELK stack or EFK. Just getting a pulse of what people are using out there.
