Hi,
That's right, though it's OK to provide a documented convenience API
for adding
handlers.
I think I’ll aim for simplicity. We’ll document that we use the logger
“packaging” throughout and let people use getLogger and addHandler with
that.
You don't necessarily need to set the level on the handler - why can
you not
just set it on the logger? The effect would often be the same: the
logger's
level is checked first, and then the handler's level.
I thought that if we set the level on the logger, we would prevent
third-party code to get some messages. E.g., we set level to INFO but
pip uses some packaging functions and would like to get DEBUG messages.
Regards
