* #1065 Use logging module instead of syslogJose M. Guisado2021-11-181-0/+72
We can't use syslog if we want to execute ogClient in the Windows platform. Use the native logging library so we can attach different handlers depending on the mode ogClient is executing. Logging configuration is done via a python dict. There is a different dict for linux and windows. These dicts define the configuration of the root logger, handlers and formatters used. As of now, it is only expected to use the root logger for everything logging related. The root logger is obtained via: LOGGER = logging.getLogger() More info about handlers, formatters and loggers: https://docs.python.org/3/howto/logging.html Logging configuration is done at startup, just after parsing the json (knowing ogclient mode). If json parsing goes bad, ogclient will only print a message to stdout.
