I think the following solution is very flexible and solves most needs to set up logging, since I can implement your needs in for example your_environment_module.set_up()
This looks dubious to me. There is no reason to have a shared Python logging configuration, IMO. Also, I don't understand why this is importing a module.
While I agree that importing a module might not be the right way, having a standard way to configure logging via environment variables might be helpful. Configuring logging is a difficult thing if done fully, like, allowing different loglevels for different loggers. Having this implemented in the standard library might be actually useful (and it’s also done that way in other languages). regards, Jonas
If all your scripts are part of an application, then it's reasonable for them to share a mechanism for logging configuration. But it should be done in your application, not in Python itself.
