| The documentation for "logging.handlers.SysLogHandler" is somewhat incomplete. This class can be used to communicate to a local syslogd too (not only to log to a remote syslogd, or a local syslogd with enabled remote logging capabilities ("-r" option)). The documentation on: http://docs.python.org/lib/node417.html for SysLogHandler([address[, facility]]) should be expanded with something like the following: """ If address is specified as a string, a UNIX socket is used. To log to a local syslogd "SysLogHandler(address="/dev/log")" can be used. """ The docstring "import logging.handlers;help(logging.handlers.SysLogHandler.__init__)" is rather short and could be replaced with above documentation. | ||
