Hi,
Is it possible somehow to have the logging module rotate the files
every time I start it.
Basically, I can automatically rotate using RotatingFileHandler;
Now I want it rotated every time I start the program too.
Ex: The logging file - log.txt
Now, rotatingfilehandler goes and updates to log.txt.1, log.txt.2,
log.txt.3 etc.
Now, I also want to rotate it automatically I start the program -
i.e.
The second time I start the program - log.txt -> log.txt.1, log.txt.
1 -> log.txt.2 etc.
I can write up a simple script to move it by 1 digit every time.
My question is - is it possible automatically via logging
functionality? This is needed because say TimedRotatingFileHandler etc
wont work that well otherwise.
It does look like twisted.python.logfile.DailyLogFile seems to be
an Ok option, but I want to use the logging module in the Python
distribution, since it is more powerful.
