Redirect Python ‘print’ output to Logger

by

You have two options:

  1. Open a logfile and replace sys.stdout with it, not a function:

    log = open("myprog.log", "a")
sys.stdout = log

>>> print("Hello")
>>> # nothing is printed because it goes to the log file instead.

  2. Replace print with your log function:

    # If you're using python 2.x, uncomment the next line
#from __future__ import print_function
print = log.info

>>> print("Hello!")
>>> # nothing is printed because log.info is called instead of print
