qiskit.ignis.logging.IgnisLogger

__init__(name, level=0)

Initialize the IgnisLogger object

Parameters

• name (str) – name of the logger. Usually set to package name using __name__
• level (logging.NOTSET) – Verbosity level (use logging package enums)

addFilter(filter)

Add the specified filter to this handler.

addHandler(hdlr)

Add the specified handler to this logger.

callHandlers(record)

Pass a record to all relevant handlers.

Loop through all handlers for this logger and its parents in the logger hierarchy. If no handler was found, output a one-off error message to sys.stderr. Stop searching up the hierarchy whenever a logger with the “propagate” attribute set to zero is found - that will be the last logger whose handlers are called.

configure(sh, conf_file_exists)

Internal configuration method of IgnisLogger. Should only be called by IgnisLogger

Parameters

• sh (StreamHandler) – StreamHandler object
• conf_file_exists (bool) – Whether or not a file config exists

critical(msg, *args, **kwargs)

Log ‘msg % args’ with severity ‘CRITICAL’.

To pass exception information, use the keyword argument exc_info with a true value, e.g.

logger.critical(“Houston, we have a %s”, “major disaster”, exc_info=1)

debug(msg, *args, **kwargs)

Log ‘msg % args’ with severity ‘DEBUG’.

To pass exception information, use the keyword argument exc_info with a true value, e.g.

logger.debug(“Houston, we have a %s”, “thorny problem”, exc_info=1)

disable_file_logging()

Disable file logging for this logger object (note there is a single object for a given logger name

enable_file_logging()

Enable file logging for this logger object (note there is a single object for a given logger name

error(msg, *args, **kwargs)

Log ‘msg % args’ with severity ‘ERROR’.

To pass exception information, use the keyword argument exc_info with a true value, e.g.

logger.error(“Houston, we have a %s”, “major problem”, exc_info=1)

exception(msg, *args, exc_info=True, **kwargs)

Convenience method for logging an ERROR with exception information.

fatal(msg, *args, **kwargs)

Log ‘msg % args’ with severity ‘CRITICAL’.

To pass exception information, use the keyword argument exc_info with a true value, e.g.

logger.critical(“Houston, we have a %s”, “major disaster”, exc_info=1)

filter(record)

Determine if a record is loggable by consulting all the filters.

The default is to allow the record to be logged; any filter can veto this and the record is then dropped. Returns a zero value if a record is to be dropped, else non-zero.

Changed in version 3.2: Allow filters to be just callables.

findCaller(stack_info=False)

Find the stack frame of the caller so that we can note the source file name, line number and function name.

getChild(suffix)

Get a logger which is a descendant to this one.

This is a convenience method, such that

logging.getLogger(‘abc’).getChild(‘def.ghi’)

is the same as

logging.getLogger(‘abc.def.ghi’)

It’s useful, for example, when the parent logger is named using __name__ rather than a literal string.

getEffectiveLevel()

Get the effective level for this logger.

Loop through this logger and its parents in the logger hierarchy, looking for a non-zero logging level. Return the first one found.

handle(record)

Call the handlers for the specified record.

This method is used for unpickled records received from a socket, as well as those created locally. Logger-level filtering is applied.

hasHandlers()

See if this logger has any handlers configured.

Loop through all handlers for this logger and its parents in the logger hierarchy. Return True if a handler was found, else False. Stop searching up the hierarchy whenever a logger with the “propagate” attribute set to zero is found - that will be the last logger which is checked for the existence of handlers.

info(msg, *args, **kwargs)

Log ‘msg % args’ with severity ‘INFO’.

To pass exception information, use the keyword argument exc_info with a true value, e.g.

logger.info(“Houston, we have a %s”, “interesting problem”, exc_info=1)

isEnabledFor(level)

Is this logger enabled for level ‘level’?

log(level, msg, *args, **kwargs)

Log ‘msg % args’ with the integer severity ‘level’.

To pass exception information, use the keyword argument exc_info with a true value, e.g.

logger.log(level, “We have a %s”, “mysterious problem”, exc_info=1)

log_to_file(**kwargs)

Log key:value pairs to a log file.

Note: Logger name in the log file is fixed (ignis_logging)

Parameters

kwargs – key/value pairs to be logged, e.g t1=0.02, qubits=[1,2,4]

makeRecord(name, level, fn, lno, msg, args, exc_info, func=None, extra=None, sinfo=None)

A factory method which can be overridden in subclasses to create specialized LogRecords.

removeFilter(filter)

Remove the specified filter from this handler.

removeHandler(hdlr)

Remove the specified handler from this logger.

setLevel(level)

Set the logging level of this logger. level must be an int or a str.

warning(msg, *args, **kwargs)

Log ‘msg % args’ with severity ‘WARNING’.

To pass exception information, use the keyword argument exc_info with a true value, e.g.

logger.warning(“Houston, we have a %s”, “bit of a problem”, exc_info=1)
