logging - Why does Python's SysLogHandler require an address? -

-

this code logs syslog using syslog module:

import syslog  syslog.syslog(syslog.log_err, 'a')

and here's equivalent code using logging module:

import logging logging.handlers import sysloghandler  logger = logging.getlogger() logger.addhandler(sysloghandler(address='/dev/log')) logger.setlevel(logging.error) logger.error('a')

if leave out address parameter in second snippet, doesn't anything. why logging version require me specify address, when syslog module can figure out on own?

i'd rather not have specify path, since it's platform-dependent. going have write own version of sysloghandler delegates syslog module?

the syslog.syslog api allows send events system logger on local machine only, whereas specifying address in python logging can log not local machine remote syslog server. so, logging approach covers wider set of circumstances syslog.syslog does. note on platforms / in environments, syslog.syslog not thread-safe (in past), because underlying system call api not thread-safe in environments. may not case longer, it's best check documentation syslog on platform. more background, see this python issue.

also, can log syslog server windows machines too, using logging api (the syslog module not available on windows).
