Classes

class Logger (service: str = None, level: Union[str, int] = None, child: bool = False, sampling_rate: float = None, stream: <_io.TextIOWrapper name='' mode='w' encoding='utf-8'> = None, **kwargs)

Creates and setups a logger to format statements in JSON.

Includes service name and any additional key=value into logs It also accepts both service name or level explicitly via env vars

Environment Variables

POWERTOOLS_SERVICE_NAME : str service name LOG_LEVEL: str logging level (e.g. INFO, DEBUG) POWERTOOLS_LOGGER_SAMPLE_RATE: float sampling rate ranging from 0 to 1, 1 being 100% sampling

Parameters

service : str, optional
service name to be appended in logs, by default "service_undefined"
level : str, int optional
logging.level, by default "INFO"
child : bool, optional
create a child Logger named ., False by default
sample_rate : float, optional
sample rate for debug calls within execution context defaults to 0.0
stream : sys.stdout, optional
valid output for a logging stream, by default sys.stdout

Example

Setups structured logging in JSON for Lambda functions with explicit service name

>>> from aws_lambda_powertools import Logger
>>> logger = Logger(service="payment")
>>>
>>> def handler(event, context):
        logger.info("Hello")

Setups structured logging in JSON for Lambda functions using env vars

$ export POWERTOOLS_SERVICE_NAME="payment"
$ export POWERTOOLS_LOGGER_SAMPLE_RATE=0.01 # 1% debug sampling
>>> from aws_lambda_powertools import Logger
>>> logger = Logger()
>>>
>>> def handler(event, context):
        logger.info("Hello")

Append payment_id to previously setup logger

>>> from aws_lambda_powertools import Logger
>>> logger = Logger(service="payment")
>>>
>>> def handler(event, context):
        logger.structure_logs(append=True, payment_id=event["payment_id"])
        logger.info("Hello")

Create child Logger using logging inheritance via child param

>>> # app.py
>>> import another_file
>>> from aws_lambda_powertools import Logger
>>> logger = Logger(service="payment")
>>>
>>> # another_file.py
>>> from aws_lambda_powertools import Logger
>>> logger = Logger(service="payment", child=True)

Raises

InvalidLoggerSamplingRateError
When sampling rate provided is not a float

Initialize the logger with a name and an optional level.
