Welcome to vislog Documentation

vislog is a ZERO-dependency logging library that brings visual effect to your logging message. It allows you to use any logging library you like, and just add visual effect.

@logger.emoji_block(msg="build", emoji="🏭")
def run_build():
    time.sleep(1)
    logger.info("run build")

def run_test():
    time.sleep(1)
    logger.info("run test")
    with logger.nested():
        run_build()

@logger.emoji_block(msg="deploy", emoji="🚀")
def run_deploy():
    time.sleep(1)
    logger.info("run deploy")
    with logger.nested():
        run_test()
