Customizing logging configuration

Although we can use logging.basicConfig to customize a logger, doing so will affect all the loggers that are loaded during runtime. So it’s best to adjust the configurations locally. So, instead of doing:

import logging
import sys

logging.basicConfig(stream=sys.stdout, level=logging.INFO, format="")

we can use:

logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
logger.setLevel(logging.INFO)
handler = logging.StreamHandler(sys.stdout)
handler.setFormatter(logging.Formatter(""))
logger.handlers = [handler]
logger.propagate = False
