Logging to a single file across different modules in python

Question

I have a python project where I want to log multiple events across different modules in a single rotating file. I am using logzero for this.

For example: If I need logging from init.py and main.py, how can I using only a single log file to log both the events?

I don't know how you structured your code, but did you think about passing the logger object as argument to the several classes (maybe to __int__(self, logger)) or define it as constant in my_logger.py for example. — rocksteady

You can specify the same log file from different python files:

logzero.logfile("logfile.log", maxBytes=1000000, backupCount=3)

It is mentioned in the documentation (Features section):

Multiple loggers can write to the same logfile (also across multiple Python files).
