Overview

Every project should utilize logging, but for simple use cases, this requires a bit too much boilerplate. Instead of including all of this in your modules:

import logging 

logging.basicConfig(
    level=logging.INFO,
    format="%(levelname)s: %(name)s: %(message)s",
)

log = logging.getLogger(__name__)

def greet(name):
    log.info("Hello, %s!", name)

with this package you can simply:

import log

def greet(name):
    log.info("Hello, %s!", name)

It will produce the exact same standard library logging records behind the scenes.
