I'm using twisted.python.log to do some logging in an application. It's formatting the output like "<date> [-] <mymessage>". I've seen in some of my other applications that the contents of "[-]" can change depending on how the code is reached. Is there a way that I can customize this in my application? I'd like to change the contents to reflect the particular object that is generating the log message.
If you pass a 'system' kwarg to log.msg then it will go in that field. log.msg("hi", system="stuff") results in <date> [stuff] hi In my applications I usually hack the default log context stuff to disable the inferred systems because they end up just being misleading and inconsistent anyway. -- Christopher Armstrong http://radix.twistedmatrix.com/ http://planet-if.com/
