django-deferred-filelogger

==========================

This package provides a new logging handler that defers evaluation of the

filepath until a message is emitted.  It uses a setting ``LOG_ROOT`` as the

folder for the log files.  This is useful when you don't know the exact location

of your log files when the ``LOGGING`` setting is defined - this can be the case

if you have a environment specific settings file which gets imported after your

core settings.

Usage

-----

In your main settings file, configure your handlers with a filename

.. code:: python

    LOGGING = {

        ...

        'handlers': {

            'error_file': {

                'level': 'INFO',

                'class': 'deferred_filelogger.DeferredFilehandler',

                'filename': 'errors.log',

            }

        },

        'loggers': {

            'django.request': {

                'handlers': ['error_file', 'mail_admins'],

                'level': 'ERROR',

                'propagate': False

            }

        }

    }

then in your environmental overrides (eg ``settings_local.py``), specify a

``LOG_ROOT`` folder.  For instance, in your test environment you might specify

.. code:: python

    LOG_ROOT = '/var/www/client/project/logs/test'

which would cause your Django errors to be logged to

``/var/www/client/project/logs/test/errors.log``.
