Version 0.10.0

Released on July 14th 2015

Version 0.9.1

Released on May 4th 2015

  • Minor fixes

Version 0.9.0

  • NullHandlers now respect filters - allows to only drop/mute certain records (#73)

Released on October 3rd 2013. Codename “why_not_production_ready”

  • Added Redis handler (Thanks a lot @guillermo-carrasco for this PR)

Version 0.5.0

Released on August 10th 2013.

  • Drop 2.5, 3.2 support, code cleanup

Version 0.4.2

Released on June 2nd 2013.

  • Fixed Python 3.x compatibility, including speedups

  • Dropped Python 2.4 support. Python 2.4 support caused a lot of hacks in the code and introduced duplication to the test code. In addition, it is impossible to cover 2.4-3.x with a single tox installation, which may introduce unwitting code breakage. Travis also does not support Python 2.4 so the chances of accidentally breaking this support were very high as it was…

Released on December 12th. Codename “121212”

Version 0.4

Released on October 24th. Codename “Phoenix”

  • Added preliminary RabbitMQ and CouchDB support.

Version 0.2.1

Bugfix release, Released on September 22nd.

  • Fixes Python 2.5 compatibility.

Version 0.2

Released on September 21st. Codename “Walls of Text”

  • Implemented default with statement for handlers which is an alias for threadbound.

  • applicationbound and threadbound return the handler now.

  • Implemented channel recording on the log records.

  • The logbook.more.FingersCrossedHandler now is set to ERROR by default and has the ability to create new loggers from a factory function.
