Can rich.logging output to file?

[pyfoo]

Hi,

I am trying to use rich.logging to have more readable logs. Can this be done? As you will see I'm not doing well! ;)

Originally I had the following setup for my logging to file which works fine:

logging.basicConfig(
    format='%(asctime)s [%(levelname)s] [%(name)s] - %(message)s (%(filename)s:%(lineno)d)',
    level='INFO',
    datefmt='%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S',
    filename='/tmp/foo.log')
logger = logging.getLogger('Main')

I tried a few variants of the following:

logging.basicConfig(
    format='%(asctime)s [%(levelname)s] [%(name)s] - %(message)s (%(filename)s:%(lineno)d)',
    level='INFO', 
    datefmt='%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S',
    handlers=[
        logging.FileHandler('/tmp/foo.log', mode='a'), 
        RichHandler(rich_tracebacks=True, console=None,show_path=True)])
logger = logging.getLogger('Main')

logger.info('info log')

What the above seems to do is output the following to the terminal:

Output:
info log
INFO     info log                      <stdin>:3
[03/21/24 11:00:48] INFO     info log  <stdin>:3
[03/21/24 11:00:48] INFO     info log  <stdin>:3
[03/21/24 11:00:48] INFO     info log  <stdin>:3

and the following to the foo.log logfile:

Output:
info log
info log
info log
info log
info log

The formatting of the log line is wrong, I output to terminal and log file rather than just the log file and the log file does not take the format into account. I think it's clear I need help. I could not find documentation that allowed me to use rich.logging to output colour and formatting to a log file.

Thanks for any advice you can give.

I'm sorry. I see no way of removing this thread.

What I wrote is complete nonsense. I was doing my tests in ptpython and I guess I was piling up bad code on top of each other.

Sorry for the noise.
