The main features of this release are massive improvements in standard library's logging
integration.
Have a look at the updated standard library chapter on how to use them!
Special thanks go to
Fabian Büchler,
Gilbert Gilb's,
Iva Kaneva,
insolite,
and sky-code,
that made them possible.
- The default renderer now is
structlog.dev.ConsoleRenderer
if you don't configurestructlog
. Colors are used if available and human-friendly timestamps are prepended. This is in line with our backward compatibility policy that explicitly excludes default settings.
- Added
structlog.stdlib.render_to_log_kwargs()
. This allows you to uselogging
-based formatters to take care of rendering your entries. #98 - Added
structlog.stdlib.ProcessorFormatter
which does the opposite: This allows you to runstructlog
processors on arbitrarylogging.LogRecords
. #79 #105 - UNIX epoch timestamps from
structlog.processors.TimeStamper
are more precise now. - Added repr_native_str to
structlog.processors.KeyValueRenderer
andstructlog.dev.ConsoleRenderer
. This allows for human-readable non-ASCII output on Python 2 (repr()
on Python 2 behaves likeascii()
on Python 3 in that regard). As per compatibility policy, it's on (original behavior) inKeyValueRenderer
and off (humand-friendly behavior) inConsoleRenderer
. #94 - Added colors argument to
structlog.dev.ConsoleRenderer
and made it the default renderer. #78 - Fixed bug with Python 3 and
structlog.stdlib.BoundLogger.log()
. Error log level was not reproductible and was logged as exception one time out of two. #92 - Positional arguments are now removed even if they are empty. #82
Python 3.3 and 2.6 aren't supported anymore. They may work by chance but any effort to keep them working has ceased.
The last Python 2.6 release was on October 29, 2013 and isn't supported by the CPython core team anymore. Major Python packages like Django and Twisted dropped Python 2.6 a while ago already.
Python 3.3 never had a significant user base and wasn't part of any distribution's LTS release.
- Add a
drop_missing
argument toKeyValueRenderer
. Ifkey_order
is used and a key is missing a value, it's not rendered at all instead of being rendered asNone
. #67 - Exceptions without a
__traceback__
are now also rendered on Python 3. - Don't cache loggers in lazy proxies returned from
get_logger()
. This lead to in-place mutation of them if used before configuration which in turn lead to the problem that configuration was applied only partially to them later. #72
structlog.processors.ExceptionPrettyPrinter
andstructlog.processors.format_exc_info
now support passing of Exceptions on Python 3.- Clean up the context when exiting
structlog.threadlocal.tmp_bind
in case of exceptions. #64 - Be more more lenient about missing
__name__
s. #62 - Add
structlog.dev.ConsoleRenderer
that renders the event dictionary aligned and with colors. - Use six for compatibility.
- Add
structlog.processors.UnicodeDecoder
that will decode all byte string values in an event dictionary to Unicode. - Add
serializer
parameter tostructlog.processors.JSONRenderer
which allows for using different (possibly faster) JSON encoders than the standard library.
- Tolerate frames without a
__name__
, better. #58 - Officially support Python 3.5.
- Add
structlog.ReturnLogger.failure
andstructlog.PrintLogger.failure
as preparation for the new Twisted logging system.
- Allow empty lists of processors. This is a valid use case since #26 has been merged. Before, supplying an empty list resulted in the defaults being used.
- Prevent Twisted's
log.err
from quoting strings rendered bystructlog.twisted.JSONRenderer
. - Better support of
logging.Logger.exception
withinstructlog
. #52 - Add option to specify target key in
structlog.processors.TimeStamper
processor. #51
- Tolerate frames without a
__name__
.
- Add
structlog.stdlib.add_log_level
andstructlog.stdlib.add_logger_name
processors. #44 - Add
structlog.stdlib.BoundLogger.log
. #42 - Pass positional arguments to stdlib wrapped loggers that use string formatting. #19
structlog
is now dually licensed under the Apache License, Version 2 and the MIT license. Therefore it is now legal to use structlog with GPLv2-licensed projects. #28- Add
structlog.stdlib.BoundLogger.exception
. #22
- Fixed a memory leak in greenlet code that emulates thread locals. It shouldn't matter in practice unless you use multiple wrapped dicts within one program that is rather unlikely. #8
structlog.PrintLogger
now is thread-safe.- Test Twisted-related code on Python 3 (with some caveats).
- Drop support for Python 3.2. There is no justification to add complexity for a Python version that nobody uses. If you are one of the 0.350% that use Python 3.2, please stick to the 0.4 branch; critical bugs will still be fixed.
- Officially support Python 3.4.
- Allow final processor to return a dictionary. See the adapting chapter. #26
from structlog import *
works now (but you still shouldn't use it).
- Don't cache proxied methods in
structlog.threadlocal._ThreadLocalDictWrapper
. This doesn't affect regular users. - Various doc fixes.
- Add
structlog.processors.StackInfoRenderer
for adding stack information to log entries without involving exceptions. Also added it to default processor chain. #6 - Allow optional positional arguments for
structlog.get_logger
that are passed to logger factories. The standard library factory uses this for explicit logger naming. #12 - Add
structlog.processors.ExceptionPrettyPrinter
for development and testing when multiline log entries aren't just acceptable but even helpful. - Allow the standard library name guesser to ignore certain frame names. This is useful together with frameworks.
- Add meta data (e.g. function names, line numbers) extraction for wrapped stdlib loggers. #5
- Fix stdlib's name guessing.
- Add forgotten
structlog.processors.TimeStamper
to API documentation.
- Greatly enhanced and polished the documentation and added a new theme based on Write The Docs, requests, and Flask.
- Add Python Standard Library-specific BoundLogger that has an explicit API instead of intercepting unknown method calls.
See
structlog.stdlib.BoundLogger
. structlog.ReturnLogger
now allows arbitrary positional and keyword arguments.- Add Twisted-specific BoundLogger that has an explicit API instead of intercepting unknown method calls.
See
structlog.twisted.BoundLogger
. - Allow logger proxies that are returned by
structlog.get_logger
andstructlog.wrap_logger
to cache the BoundLogger they assemble according to configuration on first use. See the chapter on performance and thecache_logger_on_first_use
argument ofstructlog.configure
andstructlog.wrap_logger
. - Extract a common base class for loggers that does nothing except keeping the context state.
This makes writing custom loggers much easier and more straight-forward.
See
structlog.BoundLoggerBase
.
- Promote to stable, thus henceforth a strict backward compatibility policy is put into effect.
- Add
key_order
option tostructlog.processors.KeyValueRenderer
for more predictable log entries with anydict
class. structlog.PrintLogger
now uses proper I/O routines and is thus viable not only for examples but also for production.- Enhance Twisted support by offering JSONification of non-structlog log entries.
- Allow for custom serialization in
structlog.twisted.JSONRenderer
without abusing__repr__
.
