The code you present should work as you expect:
$ cat tmp.py
import logging
fileHandler = logging.FileHandler('tmp.txt')
fileLogger = logging.getLogger('TESTHARNESSFILE')
fileLogger.addHandler(fileHandler)
fileLogger.setLevel(logging.INFO)
consoleHandler = logging.StreamHandler()
logger = logging.getLogger('TESTHARNESS')
logger.addHandler(consoleHandler)
logger.setLevel(logging.INFO)
logger.info("to console")
fileLogger.info("to file")
$ python tmp.py
to console
$ cat tmp.txt
to file
What problems exactly are you running into if you omit the basicConfig()
call?
