How can I configure logging rotation in Django settings?

How can I configure logging rotation in Django settings?

You can configure logging rotation in Django by using the logging module in your settings.py file. You can set up a RotatingFileHandler or a TimedRotatingFileHandler.

What parameters do I need to set for the RotatingFileHandler?

For RotatingFileHandler, you need to set parameters like filename, maxBytes, and backupCount. This controls the log file size and how many backups to keep.

Can you give me an example configuration?

Sure! Here's an example:

LOGGING = {
    'version': 1,
    'handlers': {
        'file': {
            'level': 'DEBUG',
            'class': 'logging.handlers.RotatingFileHandler',
            'filename': 'myapp.log',
            'maxBytes': 1024 * 1024 * 5,  # 5 MB
            'backupCount': 5,
        },
    },
    'loggers': {
        'django': {
            'handlers': ['file'],
            'level': 'DEBUG',
            'propagate': True,
        },
    },
}

What if I want to rotate logs based on time instead of size?

You can use TimedRotatingFileHandler instead. Set parameters like when, interval, and backupCount to control the rotation frequency.
