Logging¶
Kedro uses Python’s logging
library. Configuration is provided as a dictionary according to the Python logging configuration schema in two places:
Default configuration built into the Kedro framework. This cannot be altered.
Your project-side logging configuration. Every project generated using Kedro’s CLI
kedro new
command includes a fileconf/base/logging.yml
. You can alter this configuration and provide different configurations for different run environment according to the standard Kedro mechanism for handling configuration.
Note
Providing project-side logging configuration is entirely optional. You can delete the conf/base/logging.yml
file and Kedro will run using the framework’s built in configuration.
Framework-side and project-side logging configuration are loaded through subsequent calls to logging.config.dictConfig
. This means that, when it is provided, the project-side logging configuration typically fully overwrites the framework-side logging configuration. Incremental configuration is also possible if the incremental
key is explicitly set to True
in your project-side logging configuration.
