python log manager
Question: Hello I have several python programs that runs in parallel. I want to write a
python program which will manage the programs logs, which mean that the other
programs will sent log message to this program and the program will write it
to the log file. Another important feature is that if one of the programs will
crash, the 'manage log program' will know about it and could write it to the
log file. I try to use this sample
<http://docs.python.org/library/logging.html#sending-and-receiving-logging-
events-across-a-network> but I failed.

Can anyone please help me?


Answer: This sounds like a horribly complicated scheme, frankly. I would try a simple
solution first, like [the Twisted
logger](http://twistedmatrix.com/documents/current/core/howto/logging.html) in
`twisted.python.log`. There is an example of how to log exceptions
automagically.
