How can I implement logging for background tasks in Django?

You can use the django-background-tasks library to manage background tasks and integrate logging using Python's built-in logging module.

Can you show me a code example for that?

Sure! First, set up logging in your Django settings. Then, in your task function, you can log messages like this:

import logging
from background_task import background

logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)

@background(schedule=60)
def my_task():
    logger.info('Task started')
    # Your task logic here
    logger.info('Task completed')

What if I want to log errors that occur during the task?

You can use a try-except block within your task function to catch exceptions and log them. For example:

@background(schedule=60)
def my_task():
    try:
        # Your task logic here
    except Exception as e:
        logger.error(f'Error occurred: {e}')
