django-eventlog is a very simple event logger you can use to track certain actions in
your code. Events are stored in a Django model and can be viewed in the Django Admin.Usage Example:
```python
from eventlog import EventGroupe = EventGroup() # Start a new Event Group
e.info('About to send 1000 mails.', # Trigger an Event
initiator='Mailer Daemon')
try:
# ... sending 1000 mails
e.info('All emails sent!', # Trigger an Event in the same group,
initiator='Mailer Daemon') # so they are combined in the admin.
except Exception:
e.error('There was an error sending the emails.',
initiator='Mailer Daemon')
```You can reuse an event group by specifying a group name and attach optional data. Data
must be JSON serializable.```python
from eventlog import EventGroupdef purchase():
e = EventGroup(group_id=f"Order {self.order.pk}")
e.info("Sent order to Shopify", data={"items": [1, 2, 3]})def subscribe_newsletter():
e = EventGroup(group_id=f"Order {self.order.pk}")
e.info("User subscribed to newsletter on checkout", data={"email": "[email protected]"})
```Events can be grouped in a "Event Group" and when hovering over one item in the admin,
all events of the same group are highlighted:
The details view of an event will list all other events of this group so you
can track the progress:
While looking similar, it's not intended to be a replacement for your regular Python
`logging` facility, rather an addition to it.django-eventlog stores it's data in a regular database model, so each log entry will
trigger a SQL Insert. Therefore you should be careful using it in high performance
and/or high volume environments.
