Package Logging
***************

Description
===========

The Standard or user specifig logging is carried out by the log.py module of the logging
package **ka_uts_log** using the standard- or user-configuration files in the logging
package configuration directory:

* **<logging package directory>/cfg/ka_std_log.yml**,
* **<logging package directory>/cfg/ka_usr_log.yml**.

The Logging configuration of the logging package could be overriden by yaml files with the
same names in the application package- or application data-configuration directories:

* **<application package directory>/cfg**
* **<application data directory>/cfg**.

Log message types
=================

Logging defines log file path names for the following log message types: .

#. *debug*
#. *info*
#. *warning*
#. *error*
#. *critical*

Log types and Log directories
-----------------------------

Single or multiple Application log directories can be used for each message type:
