Please add example for logging across different machines over a network.

Given that multiprocessing logging starts a log server, I would like to be able to have code running on multiple machines and one machine runs the log server. I'm not sure how to do this with this library.

Hi @sahilmtayade

You could refer #26 as @ZeroRin has figured out a way to achieve this.

On logger machine, start with use_multiprocessing=True, port=PortNumber as usual. On the worker machines, add one more argument of host=“Logger machine hostname or ip”. Also, using string --multiprocessing-fork as the first sys.argv value for these worker scripts. You could either pass that string to command line that starts the script or put sys.argv[1]=“--multiprocessing-fork” before setup_logging().

It should be simpler at the next release version, but for now, this is the way to do it.

If you still need help, please describe a little more about your use case.

Have a good day
