"""Provides functions for logging error and other messages to one or more
files and/or the console, using python's own logging module. Some warning
messages and error messages are generated by PsychoPy itself. The user can
generate more using the functions in this module.
There are various levels for logged messages; ranging from ERROR, through
WARNING, to INFO and DEBUG. When setting the level for a particular log
(file or console) the user can set the minimum level that is required
for messages to enter the log. For example, setting a level of INFO will
result in INFO, WARNING and ERROR messages to be recorded but not DEBUG
nessages.
By default, PsychoPy will record messages of WARNING level and above to
the console and INFO upwards to a psychopy.log in the current directory. The user
can silence both by setting them to receive only CRITICAL messages, which
(PsychoPy doesn't use) using the commands;
::
from psychopy import log
log.psychopyLog.setLevel(log.CRITICAL)
log.console.setLevel(log.CRITICAL)
