python - 哪种启用/禁用日志记录的更好方法？

Question

Which is better way to enable/disable logging?

1) Changing log levels,

logging.disable(logging.CRITICAL)

2)

log = None

And logging messages this way,

if log:
    log.info("log message")

So that we can avoid unnecessary string constructions in case of logging disabled...

Answer 1

1 is best, ideally via a configuration file or command line argument (--quiet)

2 will just clutter up your code

If you want to avoid expensive string construction (this is probably worthwhile about 0.001% of the time in my experience), use:

if logger.isEnabledFor(logging.DEBUG):
    logger.debug("Message with %s, %s", expensive_func1(),
                                        expensive_func2())
