AgentOps logger

The AgentOps logger is quick and simple way of integrating your existing agent codebase with AgentOps. It allows you to use your current logs as events by extending the built-in Python logging system to emit events to AgentOps.

There are main ways of using it:

  • Initializing a new Logger with AgentOps functionality
  • Adding a log handler to your existing Logger

But first, we must import AgentOps classes and initilize the AgentOps client.

python
from agentops import Client, AgentOpsLogger

ao_client = Client(<INSERT YOUR API KEY HERE>)

​
Initializing a new Logger

If you don’t already have a logger or want to simply initialize your logger via AgentOps, do the following:

We can initilize a new logger with the following:

python
logger = AgentOpsLogger.get_agentops_logger(ao_client, "my_logger")

Now whenever you call get a logger with the same name, any logs written to the logger will be sent to AgentOps.

get_agentops_logger also takes the optional parameter of level to limit the amount of logs that get sent to AgentOps.

​
Adding a log handler

If you already have complex set ups for your logging and you find it more convinient, you can get a log handler from Agent Ops and attach it to your existing logger

Then we can initilize a new logger with the client

python
handler = AgentOpsLogger.get_agentops_handler(agentops, "my_logger")
<YOUR LOGGER>.addHandler(handler)

Details

The AgentOpsLogger class is a utility class for creating loggers and handlers configured to work with the AgentOps service.

python
@staticmethod
def get_agentops_logger(client: Client, name: str, level=logging.DEBUG)

This static method creates and returns a logger with an AgentOpsHandler.

Arguments

  • client (Client): The AgentOps client to which the logs will be sent.
  • name (str): The name for the logger and handler.
  • level (int, optional): The minimum severity level to log. Defaults to logging.DEBUG.

Returns

  • A logger (logging.Logger) configured with an AgentOpsHandler.
python
@staticmethod
def get_agentops_handler(client: AgentOps, name: str)

This static method creates and returns an AgentOpsHandler.

Arguments

  • client (Client): The AgentOps client to which the logs will be sent.
  • name (str): The name for the handler.

Returns

  • A new AgentOpsHandler with the given client and name.

The AgentOpsHandler class is a custom logging handler for sending logs to the AgentOps service. This handler extends the built-in logging.Handler class to send log records to AgentOps. It also removes ANSI color codes from log messages before sending them.

This method initializes the handler with a specific AgentOps client and name.

Arguments

  • client (Client): The AgentOps client to which the logs will be sent.
  • name (str): The name for this handler.
python
@staticmethod
def remove_color_codes(s: str) -> str

This static method removes ANSI color codes from a string.

Arguments

  • s (str): The string from which color codes will be removed.

Returns *The same string, but without any color codes.

###emit

python
def emit(self, record)

This method processes a log record and sends it to the AgentOps client. It is called whenever a log record needs to be processed.

Arguments

  • record (logging.LogRecord): The log record to process.
