ANN: Eliot 0.9, the logging system with causality - now with journald support

Show key headers only | View raw

 
Eliot 0.9 is out, with a new utility for pretty-printing log messages
and native journald support [1]. You can now route Eliot logs to
journald and when an error occurs easily find all logged actions that
led up to that particular error, as opposed to most logging systems
where this would involve reading all the logs and figuring out which
ones apply and which to ignore. 

Most logging systems can tell you what happened; Eliot tells you _why_
it happened:

$ python linkcheck.py | eliot-tree
4c42a789-76f5-4f0b-b154-3dd0e3041445
+-- check_links@1/started
    `-- urls: [u'http://google.com', u'http://nosuchurl']
    +-- download@2,1/started
        `-- url: http://google.com
        +-- download@2,2/succeeded
    +-- download@3,1/started
        `-- url: http://nosuchurl
        +-- download@3,2/failed
            |-- exception: requests.exceptions.ConnectionError
            |-- reason: ('Conn aborted', gaierror(-2, 'Name unknown'))
    +-- check_links@4/failed
        |-- exception: exceptions.ValueError
        |-- reason: ('Conn aborted.', gaierror(-2, 'Name unknown'))

And here's the code that generated these logs (eliot-tree [2] was used
to render the output):

import sys
from eliot import start_action, to_file
import requests
to_file(sys.stdout)

def check_links(urls):
    with start_action(action_type="check_links", urls=urls):
        for url in urls:
            try:
                with start_action(action_type="download", url=url):
                    response = requests.get(url)
                    response.raise_for_status()
            except Exception as e:
                raise ValueError(str(e))

check_links(["http://google.com"], ["http://nosuchurl"])
