Standard logging module #62

Open JeremyRand opened 9 years ago

The current logging system is pretty inflexible, it doesn't show timestamps, only supports two verbosity levels, and doesn't directly support logging to a file. Python has a standard logging module, has anyone used it before?

I am very happy with this logging configuration: https://github.com/phelix/nameGUI/blob/master/lib/mylogging.py It would also get rid of all 'print' statements, improving py3 compatibility.

Suggested procedure:

use 2to3 -f print to replace print "foo" by print("foo") everywhere
replace print by log.info; implement logging creation function in "common"
(optional:) remove if debug statements and replace log.info by log.debug in these places; also set log level in main module
