Easy reconstruct errors in a Django Restframework project

Error Logger for Django Rest Framework

Error logging for DRF projects: log occuring errors, group them by endpoint, and reconstruct them without effort.

Catches all Exceptions except django.http.Http404 and rest_framework.exceptions.ValidationError, and logs them. You can then get the requests that caused errors: all, one per group or all not yet resolved ones.

Installation

1. Clone this project into your Django project
2. Add logger to your installed apps in setting.py
3. Add logger.core.LoggingMiddleware to your middleware in settings.py
4. python manage.py migrate

Use

Where to find logs?

You have an overview over all errors in the django admin site, and logger provides a view in its subpath /list with overview over all errors. You can define if you see all errors or only one (if possible, unresolved) error per group, by putting this into your settings:

LOGGER = {
    "one_per_group": True
}

Not sure what the default behaviour is.

You can add one of these to your tests:

Use logged errors as tests

Call one of these in your tests to get errors

errors = logger.core.get_one_error_per_group()
errors = logger.core.get_all_errors()
errors = logger.core.get_all_unresolved()

And then

for error in errors:
	succes, msg = logger.core.run_error(error)
	...	

Missing features

• Requests with files: files are not saved
• Auto generate test cases
