want pypeflow's logger messages directed to a file

[dgordon562]

Is there a way to have pypeflow's logger messages sent to a file instead of stderr other than just doing it on the command line? Even better, can just logger info messages be sent to a file, and warning/fatal ones be sent to stderr?

Yes, that's all completely configurable. Look first at logging.ini in FALCON-examples. (Even if you aren't using that package, you can use the configuration there.) It sends some logging to stderr, above some level, and the more detailed logging (along with the less detailed) is split into 2 files, depending on the source.

For details on Python logging:

• https://docs.python.org/2/library/logging.config.html
• https://docs.python.org/2/howto/logging.html#logging-advanced-tutorial
• https://docs.python.org/2/howto/logging-cookbook.html#logging-cookbook

Currently, you pass logging.ini as the 2nd argument:

fc_run.py fc_run.cfg logging.ini
