fastapi-cloud-logging improves cloud logging with fastapi. It enables to send request data on cloud logging.
- fastapi
- cloud logging
- Python >= 3.7
- Require contextvars
pip install fastapi-cloud-logging
Add a middleware and set a handler to send a request info with each logging.
from fastapi import FastAPI
from google.cloud.logging import Client
from google.cloud.logging_v2.handlers import setup_logging
from fastapi_cloud_logging import FastAPILoggingHandler, RequestLoggingMiddleware
app = FastAPI()
# Add middleware
app.add_middleware(RequestLoggingMiddleware)
# Use manual handler
handler = FastAPILoggingHandler(Client())
setup_logging(handler)
Cloud logging supports log entries with structured and unstructured data. When a log record has a structured data, it write a log entry with structured data. And when a log record contains a string message, it write a log entry as an unstructured textPayload attribute.
When this structured option set True on FastAPILoggingHandler, it always write a log entry with a message attribute on a structured jsonPayload object.
# default structured value is False
handler = FastAPILoggingHandler(Client(), structured=True)
On logging with an error, message payloads includes traceback from an error. If you do not want to include traceback, you should set traceback_length to 0.
# default traceback_length is 100
handler = FastAPILoggingHandler(Client(), traceback_length=0)
This middleware depends mainly contextvars. So, when you use multithreading, it cannot handle a request info. On this case, you write a code for manual context management. For example, use copy_context
on a thread.
