How can I implement logging in Django REST Framework?

You can implement logging in Django REST Framework by configuring the logging settings in your Django settings file. You can use Python's built-in logging module to log requests and responses.

Can you show me a sample configuration for logging?

Sure! Here's a basic example:

LOGGING = {
    'version': 1,
    'disable_existing_loggers': False,
    'handlers': {
        'file': {
            'level': 'DEBUG',
            'class': 'logging.FileHandler',
            'filename': 'django_rest_framework.log',
        },
    },
    'loggers': {
        'django': {
            'handlers': ['file'],
            'level': 'DEBUG',
            'propagate': True,
        },
    },
}

How do I log specific API requests?

You can create a custom middleware to log specific API requests. In the middleware, you can log the request method, path, and any other relevant information.

What about logging errors?

For logging errors, you can set up a separate logger in your configuration that captures error-level logs and directs them to a different file or service.
