Python 3 solution, no additional packages required
Define a class
import logging
class CustomFormatter(logging.Formatter):
grey = "\x1b[38;20m"
yellow = "\x1b[33;20m"
red = "\x1b[31;20m"
bold_red = "\x1b[31;1m"
reset = "\x1b[0m"
format = "%(asctime)s - %(name)s - %(levelname)s - %(message)s (%(filename)s:%(lineno)d)"
FORMATS = {
logging.DEBUG: grey + format + reset,
logging.INFO: grey + format + reset,
logging.WARNING: yellow + format + reset,
logging.ERROR: red + format + reset,
logging.CRITICAL: bold_red + format + reset
}
def format(self, record):
log_fmt = self.FORMATS.get(record.levelno)
formatter = logging.Formatter(log_fmt)
return formatter.format(record)
Instantiate logger
# create logger with 'spam_application'
logger = logging.getLogger("My_app")
logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
# create console handler with a higher log level
ch = logging.StreamHandler()
ch.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
ch.setFormatter(CustomFormatter())
logger.addHandler(ch)
And use!
logger.debug("debug message")
logger.info("info message")
logger.warning("warning message")
logger.error("error message")
logger.critical("critical message")
Result
The full color scheme
For windows
This solution works on Mac OS, IDE terminals. Looks like the Windows command prompt doesn’t have colors at all by default. Here are instructions on how to enable them, which I haven’t try https://www.howtogeek.com/322432/how-to-customize-your-command-prompts-color-scheme-with-microsofts-colortool/
