PinLogger

A Python logging utility that lets you pin and tag important log messages for easy retrieval and filtering.

Installation

pip install pinlogger

Usage

from pinlogger import PinLogger

logger = PinLogger(__name__)

logger.info("Starting the process")
logger.pin("Database connection established", tags=["db", "startup"])
logger.warning("Cache miss for key: user:42")
logger.pin("User authentication failed", tags=["auth", "error"], level="error")

# Retrieve pinned messages
for entry in logger.pinned():
    print(entry.timestamp, entry.level, entry.message, entry.tags)

# Filter by tag
for entry in logger.pinned(tag="db"):
    print(entry.message)

# Clear pins
logger.clear_pins()

Features

• Drop-in replacement for the standard library logging.Logger
• Pin messages with tags for later retrieval
• Filter pinned messages by tag
• Clear all pins or specific tags
• Works with all standard logging levels (debug, info, warning, error, critical)
