Warning This project is in beta. There are some incomplete features (see Limitations).

Picologging is a high-performance logging library for Python. picologging is 4-17x faster than the logging module in the standard library.

Picologging is designed to be used as a drop-in replacement for applications which already use logging, and supports the same API as the logging module.

Check out the Documentation for more.

Installation

Picologging can be installed from PyPi using pip:

pip install picologging

Or from conda forge using conda:

conda install -c conda-forge picologging

Usage

Import picologging as logging to use picologging instead of the standard library logging module.

This patches all the loggers registered to use picologging loggers and formatters.

import picologging as logging
logging.basicConfig()

logger = logging.getLogger()

logger.info("A log message!")

logger.warning("A log message with %s", "arguments")

Benchmarks

Run richbench benchmarks/ --markdown with the richbench CLI to see the benchmarks, here is a sample on macOS 11:

Local development

This project comes bundled with a dev container which sets up an appropriate environment. If you install the Dev Containers extension for VS Code, then opening this project in VS Code should prompt it to open it in the dev container.

Once opened in the dev container, run:

pip install -e ".[dev]"
pre-commit install
python setup.py build_ext --inplace --build-type Debug

Run the build command whenever you make changes to the files.

It's also helpful to create a .vscode/launch.json file like this one:

{
    "version": "0.2.0",
    "configurations": [
    {
        "name": "(gdb) Launch pytest",
        "type": "cppdbg",
        "request": "launch",
        "program": "/usr/local/bin/python",
        "args": ["-m", "pytest", "tests"],
        "stopAtEntry": false,
        "cwd": "${workspaceFolder}",
        "environment": [],
        "externalConsole": false,
        "MIMode": "gdb",
        "setupCommands": [
            {
                "description": "Enable pretty-printing for gdb",
                "text": "-enable-pretty-printing",
                "ignoreFailures": true
            },
            {
                "description":  "Set Disassembly Flavor to Intel",
                "text": "-gdb-set disassembly-flavor intel",
                "ignoreFailures": true
            },
        ]
    }
}

Now you can press the "Run and debug" button to run pytest from the gdb debugger and use breakpoint debugging in the C code.

If you would like to be able to dive into the CPython code while debugging, then:

  1. Do a git checkout of the tagged branch for the devcontainer's Python version into the devcontainer's /workspaces/ directory. You may need to sudo.

  2. Follow the instructions in the CPython README to compile the code.

  3. Add the following key to the the configuration in launch.json:

    "sourceFileMap": { "/usr/src/python": "/workspaces/cpython" },
  4. Add the following command to the setupCommands in launch.json:

    {
        "description": "Find CPython source code",
        "text": "-gdb-set auto-load safe-path /workspaces/cpython"
    },
