.. _aiohttp-logging:
aiohttp uses standard :mod:logging for tracking the
library activity.
We have the following loggers enumerated by names:
'aiohttp.access''aiohttp.client''aiohttp.internal''aiohttp.server''aiohttp.web''aiohttp.websocket'You may subscribe to these loggers for getting logging messages. The
page does not provide instructions for logging subscribing while the
most friendly method is :func:logging.config.dictConfig for
configuring whole loggers in your application.
Logging does not work out of the box. It requires at least minimal 'logging'
configuration.
Example of minimal working logger setup::
import logging from aiohttp import web
app = web.Application() logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG) web.run_app(app, port=5000)
.. versionadded:: 4.0.0
Access logs are enabled by default. If the debug flag is set, and the default
logger 'aiohttp.access' is used, access logs will be output to
:obj:~sys.stderr if no handlers are attached.
Furthermore, if the default logger has no log level set, the log level will be
set to :obj:logging.DEBUG.
This logging may be controlled by :meth:aiohttp.web.AppRunner and
:func:aiohttp.web.run_app.
To override the default logger, pass an instance of :class:logging.Logger to
override the default logger.
.. note::
Use web.run_app(app, access_log=None) to disable access logs.
In addition, access_log_format may be used to specify the log format.
.. _aiohttp-logging-access-log-format-spec:
Format specification ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The library provides custom micro-language to specifying info about request and response:
+--------------+---------------------------------------------------------+
| Option | Meaning |
+==============+=========================================================+
| %% | The percent sign |
+--------------+---------------------------------------------------------+
| %a | Remote IP-address |
| | (IP-address of proxy if using reverse proxy) |
+--------------+---------------------------------------------------------+
| %t | Time when the request was started to process |
+--------------+---------------------------------------------------------+
| %P | The process ID of the child that serviced the request |
+--------------+---------------------------------------------------------+
| %r | First line of request |
+--------------+---------------------------------------------------------+
| %s | Response status code |
+--------------+---------------------------------------------------------+
| %b | Size of response in bytes, including HTTP headers |
+--------------+---------------------------------------------------------+
| %T | The time taken to serve the request, in seconds |
+--------------+---------------------------------------------------------+
| %Tf | The time taken to serve the request, in seconds |
| | with fraction in %.06f format |
+--------------+---------------------------------------------------------+
| %D | The time taken to serve the request, in microseconds |
+--------------+---------------------------------------------------------+
| %{FOO}i | request.headers['FOO'] |
+--------------+---------------------------------------------------------+
| %{FOO}o | response.headers['FOO'] |
+--------------+---------------------------------------------------------+
The default access log format is::
'%a %t "%r" %s %b "%{Referer}i" "%{User-Agent}i"'
.. versionadded:: 2.3.0
access_log_class introduced.
Example of a drop-in replacement for the default access logger::
from aiohttp.abc import AbstractAccessLogger
class AccessLogger(AbstractAccessLogger):
def log(self, request, response, time):
self.logger.info(f'{request.remote} '
f'"{request.method} {request.path} '
f'done in {time}s: {response.status}')
@property
def enabled(self):
"""Return True if logger is enabled.
Override this property if logging is disabled to avoid the
overhead of calculating details to feed the logger.
This property may be omitted if logging is always enabled.
"""
return self.logger.isEnabledFor(logging.INFO)
.. versionadded:: 4.0.0
AccessLogger.log() can now access any exception raised while processing
the request with sys.exc_info().
.. versionadded:: 4.0.0
If your logging needs to perform IO you can instead inherit from
:class:aiohttp.abc.AbstractAsyncAccessLogger::
from aiohttp.abc import AbstractAsyncAccessLogger
class AccessLogger(AbstractAsyncAccessLogger):
async def log(self, request, response, time):
logging_service = request.app['logging_service']
await logging_service.log(f'{request.remote} '
f'"{request.method} {request.path} '
f'done in {time}s: {response.status}')
@property
def enabled(self) -> bool:
"""Return True if logger is enabled.
Override this property if logging is disabled to avoid the
overhead of calculating details to feed the logger.
"""
return self.logger.isEnabledFor(logging.INFO)
This also allows access to the results of coroutines on the request and
response, e.g. request.text().
.. _gunicorn-accesslog:
Gunicorn access logs
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
When Gunicorn <https://gunicorn.org>_ is used for
:ref:deployment <aiohttp-deployment-gunicorn>, its default access log format
will be automatically replaced with the default aiohttp's access log format.
If Gunicorn's option access_logformat_ is specified explicitly, it should use aiohttp's format specification.
Gunicorn's access log works only if accesslog_ is specified explicitly in your
config or as a command line option.
This configuration can be either a path or '-'. If the application uses
a custom logging setup intercepting the 'gunicorn.access' logger,
accesslog_ should be set to '-' to prevent Gunicorn to create an empty
access log file upon every startup.
:mod:aiohttp.web uses a logger named 'aiohttp.server' to store errors
given on web requests handling.
This log is enabled by default.
To use a different logger name, pass logger (:class:logging.Logger
instance) to the :meth:aiohttp.web.AppRunner constructor.
