Python Quick Logger

A fork of Python Quick Print that uses standard library Logging instances instead of print.

Highlight a variable foo you would like to log, enter keyboard cmd + shift + l, and on the line below variable, it wrap foo as follows:

import logging

log = logging.getlogger(__name__)

foo = ["a", "b", "c"]
log.info(f'foo {type(foo)}: {foo}')

----

$ foo <class 'list'>: ["a", "b", "c"]

I did not update this gif, this shows Python Quick Print. You get the idea...

Installing

This extension is available for free in the Visual Studio Code Marketplace

How to use

Only activates with .py files

• Highlight anything in the editor
• Press Cmd+Shift+L (Mac), or Ctrl+Shift+L (Windows)
• The output (on a new line) will be: log.info(f'variable: {variable}')

Keyboard Shortcut

By default the keyboard shortcut is Cmd+Shift+L or Ctrl+Shift+L If this shortcut interferes with another extension or system wide Shortcut, you may change it in the Keyboard Shortcuts Setting.

Press Cmd+P or Ctrl+P and type in Open Keyboard Shortcuts. Search for Print Python Selection and click on the pen icon. This is where you can enter any Shortcut you choose.
