# π§ logmachine 2.1.0
> Collaborative, beautiful logging system for distributed developers
**logmachine** helps teams log smarter. Itβs a fully pluggable logging system that supports colored output, JSON parsing, structured log forwarding via **HTTP or Socket.IO**, and log centralization β all from a standard Python logging interface.
---
## π Features
- π₯ **Color-coded terminal logs** (DEBUG, INFO, WARNING, ERROR, SUCCESS)
- π€ **Log forwarding** to a central HTTP or Socket.IO server
- πͺ΅ **Custom log levels** (add your own with `.new_level(...)`)
- π₯ **User identity tracking** for team-based logs
- π§© **Pluggable backends**: send logs to a central server or local files
- π¦ **Simple JSON output** for web dashboards or collectors
- π§½ Strips ANSI escape codes from logs for clean parsing
- π§ Automatically resolves usernames and saves them in `~/.cl_username`
---
## βοΈ Installation
```bash
pip install logmachine
```
---
## π§° Usage
### Basic Setup
```python
from logmachine import ContribLog
# Create a simple logger without central logging
# Providing a noon-empty string initializes the logger with that name, else the root logger is used to collect every single log in the python process.
logger = ContribLog("myapp", debug_level=1)
logger.info("Hello, world!")
logger.error("An error occurred!")
logger.success("Operation completed successfully!")
logger.debug("Debugging information here.")
logger.warning("This is a warning message.")
```
### With Central Logging (HTTP or Socket.IO)
```python
logger_config = {
"url": "https://logmachine.bufferpunk.com", # Base server URL
"room": "team_alpha", # Your organization or room
"endpoint": "/api/logs", # Optional, defaults to /api/logs
"headers": {"Authorization": "Bearer token"},
"socketio": True, # Set False to use HTTP
"socketio_path": "/api/socket.io/" # Optional
}
logger = ContribLog("with_central", debug_level=0, central=logger_config, socketio=True)
logger.success("Central logging is working!")
```
---
## π¨ Log Format
Every log includes:
* β
Username (resolved automatically or via server)
* π Module directory
* β±οΈ Timestamp
* π¦ Level (INFO, ERROR, etc.)
* π Message
Sample (terminal):
```
(username @ myapp) π€ CL Timing: [ 2025-08-04T11:23:52 ]
[ INFO ] Server started on port 8000
π
```
---
## π οΈ Advanced
### Add Your Own Log Level
```python
log.new_level("CRITICAL_HACK", 60)
log.critical_hack("Zero day found!")
```
---
## π€ Parse & Export
### Convert Logs to JSON
```python
json_logs = log.jsonifier()
for entry in json_logs:
print(entry)
```
---
## π‘ Central Server Compatibility
To use Socket.IO, your central server must support these events:
* `log`: Receives log payloads: `{ room: string, data: object }`
* `GET /api/get_username?base=localname`: Returns `{ "username": "..." }`
---
## π€ Environment Variables
* `CL_USERNAME`: Manually override detected username
* Automatically stored in `~/.cl_username` for persistent identity
---
## π Security
* HTTP headers (e.g. `Authorization`) can be injected
* Central log transmission is fully customizable
---
## π§ Configuration Summary
| Param | Type | Description |
| --------------- | ------ | -------------------------------------------------- |
| `url` | `str` | Central server base URL |
| `room` | `str` | Logical group or org name |
| `endpoint` | `str` | HTTP endpoint for POST logs (default: `/api/logs`) |
| `headers` | `dict` | Extra headers to send (e.g. auth token) |
| `socketio` | `bool` | Whether to use Socket.IO instead of HTTP |
| `socketio_path` | `str` | Path to socket.io on the server |
