dynamically getting loggers

belred

is there a way to dynamically get all the active loggers?

i currently have code like this in different areas of the program:

import logging
log = logging.getLogger('foo')
i would like to write a function that dynamically get a list of all
the logger names such as 'foo'. or get a list of the loggers which i
could then get the names. is this even possible? i don't see a
logger function that returns loggers.

thanks,

bryan

Loggers are created when requested, and I don't see a documented way to
get such list.
If you don't mind using undocumented attributes:

existing_logger_names = logging.getLogger().manager.loggerDict.keys()
