Features

• Colorized Output: Customizable colors for different log levels and components, including timestamp, file path, and details.
• Thread-Safe: Built-in thread safety for reliable logging in multi-threaded applications.
• Timezone Support: Configurable timezone for timestamp display (default: UTC).
• Automatic Path Detection: Detects relative file paths based on the project root.
• Error Trace Integration: Optionally include full error trace details for exceptions.
• Function Execution Tracking: Decorator for logging function entry, exit, arguments, and results with configurable log levels.
• File Logging: Configurable rotating file logging with size limits and backup files.
• Customizable Formatting: Adjust padding for timestamps, log levels, file paths, and other components.
• Enhanced Log Details Serialization: Handles non-serializable objects in logs by converting them into readable formats.
• Default Colors and Settings: New fields for default log colors and detailed customization.

Quick Start

from pretty_pie_log import PieLogger, PieLogLevel

# Create a logger instance
logger = PieLogger(
    logger_name="my_app",
    timezone="America/New_York",  # Optional: Set specific timezone
    minimum_log_level=PieLogLevel.INFO,  # Optional: Set minimum log level
    log_to_file=True,  # Optional: Enable file logging
)

# Basic logging methods
logger.info("Application started")
logger.debug("Debug message", details={"user_id": 123})
logger.warning("Warning message")
try:
    raise ValueError("Something went wrong")
except ValueError:
    logger.error("Error occurred", print_exception=True)  # Includes error trace
logger.critical("Critical error", details={"error_code": 500})


# Function execution tracking
@logger.log_execution(
    start_message="Starting data processing",
    end_message="Processing complete",
    print_args_at_start=True,
    print_result_at_end=True
)
def process_data(data):
    return {"processed": len(data)}


process_data([1, 2, 3, 4, 5])

Detailed Configuration

Logger Initialization

The logger is highly customizable with numerous options:

from pretty_pie_log import PieLogger, PieLogLevel
from colorama import Fore

logger = PieLogger(
    logger_name="my_app",  # Unique identifier for the logger

    # Optional Timezone and Formatting Parameters
    timezone="America/New_York",  # Defaults to UTC if not specified
    timestamp_padding=25,  # Width of timestamp field
    log_level_padding=10,  # Width of log level field
    file_path_padding=30,  # Width of file path field

    # Optional Color Configuration
    debug_log_color=Fore.CYAN,
    info_log_color=Fore.GREEN,
    warning_log_color=Fore.YELLOW,
    error_log_color=Fore.RED,
    critical_log_color=Fore.MAGENTA,
    timestamp_log_color=Fore.WHITE,
    file_path_log_color=Fore.WHITE,
    details_log_color=Fore.LIGHTWHITE_EX,

    # Enhanced Logging Options
    colorful=True,  # Enable/disable colored output
    default_log_color=Fore.WHITE,  # Fallback color when colorful is False
    details_indent=2,  # JSON indentation spaces
    minimum_log_level=PieLogLevel.INFO,  # Minimum logging level

    # Rotating File Logging
    log_to_file=True,  # Enable/disable file logging
    log_directory="logs",  # Directory for log files
    log_file_size_limit=32 * 1024 * 1024,  # Max log file size (32 MB)
    max_backup_files=10  # Number of backup log files to keep
)

Output using the above configuration

Logging Methods

All logging methods support the following parameters:

logger.info(
    message="Main log message",  # Required: Main text of the log
    details={"key": "value"},  # Optional: Additional data to include (now supports any data type)
    print_exception=True,  # Optional: Include stack trace if an exception occurred
    colorful=False  # Optional: Override global color settings for this log
)

Enhanced details Parameter

The details parameter, which previously supported only dict, now supports any data type, making it more versatile for structured and unstructured data logging.

• Supported Data Types:
  • dict: Ideal for key-value pairs or structured data (e.g., {"user_id": 123, "status": "active"})
  • list/tuple: For sequences of data (e.g., [1, 2, 3])
  • set: For unique collections (e.g., {"item1", "item2"})
  • str, int, float, bool: Simple data types
  • None: To explicitly log the absence of details
  • Custom Objects: Non-serializable objects will automatically be converted into readable strings.

Example Usage

# Logging structured data
logger.info(
    message="User login attempt",
    details={"user_id": 123, "status": "success"}
)

# Logging a list of items
logger.debug(
    message="Processing items",
    details=[1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
)


# Logging a custom object
class User:
    def __init__(self, user_id, name):
        self.user_id = user_id
        self.name = name

    def __str__(self):
        return f"User(user_id={self.user_id}, name={self.name})"


user = User(123, "John Doe")

logger.warning(
    message="Custom object logged",
    details=user
)

# Logging without additional details
logger.error(
    message="Critical failure occurred",
    details=None
)

Output:

Automatic Serialization

If the details contain non-serializable objects (e.g., custom classes), the logger will automatically convert them into strings, ensuring the logs remain readable without raising serialization errors.

For example:

class ComplexObject:
    pass


logger.debug(
    message="Logging complex object",
    details=ComplexObject()
)

Console Output

2024-11-30 10:52:00.125   DEBUG      ./../example.py:17             : Logging complex object
"<__main__.ComplexObject object at 0x0000020FD4484A90>"

This enhancement ensures compatibility with diverse use cases while maintaining structured logging capabilities.

Log Levels

The package provides five standard log levels:

• PieLogLevel.DEBUG (10)
• PieLogLevel.INFO (20)
• PieLogLevel.WARNING (30)
• PieLogLevel.ERROR (40)
• PieLogLevel.CRITICAL (50)

---

Function Execution Tracking

The log_execution decorator provides detailed monitoring of function execution:

@logger.log_execution(
    start_message="Starting task...",  # Optional: Custom start message
    end_message="Task complete.",  # Optional: Custom end message
    print_args_at_start=True,  # Log function arguments
    print_result_at_end=True,  # Log function return values
    start_message_log_level=PieLogLevel.DEBUG,  # Customizable log levels
    end_message_log_level=PieLogLevel.INFO
)
def task(arg1, arg2):
    return "result"
