plover.log – Logging#

This module provides logging functionality, with an API based on that of the built-in logging module.

class plover.log.Logger#

Initializes a logger with a handler that outputs to the console. A Logger may also log to a file, and may also log strokes and translations if enabled.

set_level(level: int)#

Sets the minimum log level to emit messages to the print and file handlers.

setup_logfile()#

Sets up a log handler that saves logs to a file in the configuration directory, rotating log files as needed.

setup_platform_handler()#

Sets up a platform-specific GUI notification handler. This sets up a a DBus handler on Linux, a Notification Center handler on macOS, and a Plyer handler on Windows. Platform-specific handlers are expected to emit log messages of at least WARNING severity.

If a handler has already been set up, this does nothing.

has_platform_handler()#

Returns whether a platform handler has been set up.

set_stroke_filename([filename: str = None])#

Sets the name of the file to save stroke and translation logs to, and sets up stroke and translation handling.

enable_stroke_logging(enable: bool)#

If enable is True, enable logging strokes; otherwise, disable it.

enable_translation_logging(enable: bool)#

If enable is True, enable logging translations; otherwise, disable it.

log_stroke(stroke: plover.steno.Stroke)#

Logs stroke to the stroke log file. Does nothing if the stroke logging handler is not set up, or stroke logging is disabled.

log_translation(undo, do, prev)#

Aside from the methods above, the typical logging.Logger methods can be used, such as info and add_handler.

In addition to the Logger class above, the following module-level functions are also available for convenience:

plover.log.__logger: Logger#

The global Plover logger instance. You should typically not have to access this directly; most use cases can be handled by the functions below.

plover.log.debug(msg, *args, **kwargs)#

Logs at a DEBUG log level by calling __logger.debug.

plover.log.info(msg, *args, **kwargs)#

Logs at an INFO log level by calling __logger.info.

plover.log.warning(msg, *args, **kwargs)#

Logs at a WARNING log level by calling __logger.warning.

plover.log.error(msg, *args, **kwargs)#

Logs at an ERROR log level by calling __logger.error.

plover.log.stroke(stroke)#

Logs stroke by calling __logger.log_stroke.

plover.log.translation(undo, do, prev)#

Logs the translation by calling __logger.log_translation.

plover.log.set_stroke_filename([filename=None])#

Sets the filename to log strokes to for __logger.

plover.log.enable_stroke_logging(enable)#
