Setting Up Logging

disnake logs errors and debug information via the logging python module. It is strongly recommended that the logging module is configured, as no errors or warnings will be output if it is not set up. Configuration of the logging module can be as simple as:

import logging

logging.basicConfig(level=logging.INFO)

Placed at the start of the application. This will output the logs from disnake as well as other libraries that use the logging module directly to the console.

The optional level argument specifies what level of events to log out and can be any of CRITICAL, ERROR, WARNING, INFO, and DEBUG and if not specified defaults to WARNING.

More advanced setups are possible with the logging module. For example to write the logs to a file called disnake.log instead of outputting them to the console the following snippet can be used:

import disnake
import logging

logger = logging.getLogger('disnake')
logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
handler = logging.FileHandler(filename='disnake.log', encoding='utf-8', mode='w')
handler.setFormatter(logging.Formatter('%(asctime)s:%(levelname)s:%(name)s: %(message)s'))
logger.addHandler(handler)

This is recommended, especially at verbose levels such as INFO and DEBUG, as there are a lot of events logged and it would clog the stdout of your program.
