@Marvin How do I change the logging level for prefect.SqlAlchemyConnector to WARNING?

To change the logging level for

prefect.SqlAlchemyConnector

to

WARNING

, you can customize the log levels using environment variables or Prefect Profile settings. Here are the steps to achieve this: 1. Environment Variable: Set the environment variable for the specific logger. For the

SqlAlchemyConnector

block logger, you would need to set an environment variable that corresponds to the internal path for the logger. This might look something like:

PREFECT_LOGGING_LOGGERS_SQLALCHEMYCONNECTOR="WARNING"

However, since I wasn't able to find the specific environment variable for the

SqlAlchemyConnector

, you will need to use the correct name corresponding to the internal path of the block's logger. 2. Prefect Profile Configuration: Prefect Profiles also allow you to configure logging settings. You can edit the

~/.prefect/config.toml

file or use Prefect CLI commands to set the logging level. For exact details on how to configure the logger specifically for

prefect.SqlAlchemyConnector

, please refer to the Prefect documentation or their community forums, as the specifics can vary based on the Prefect version and could require detailed insight into internal configuration paths which may not be externally documented.

@Marvin Now use a logging.yml file instead.

To configure the logging level using a

logging.yml

file for Prefect and specifically for the

prefect.SqlAlchemyConnector

, follow these steps: 1. Create a

logging.yml

file with the appropriate logging configuration. The file should define loggers, handlers, and the log level you desire. For the

SqlAlchemyConnector

, if it doesn't have a specific logger, you might need to set it for the

prefect

library or a more general logger that it inherits from. Here's an example of what your

logging.yml

might look like:

yaml
version: 1
disable_existing_loggers: False
formatters:
  simple:
    format: '%(asctime)s - %(name)s - %(levelname)s - %(message)s'
handlers:
  console:
    class: logging.StreamHandler
    level: WARNING
    formatter: simple
    stream: <ext://sys.stdout>
loggers:
  prefect:
    level: WARNING
    handlers: [console]
    propagate: no
root:
  level: WARNING
  handlers: [console]

2. In the example above, the handler named

console

is set to display only messages with the level

WARNING

or above. The

prefect

logger is configured to use this handler and not to propagate messages to the root logger. If

SqlAlchemyConnector

uses the

prefect

logger, it will inherit these settings. 3. Now, tell Prefect to use this

logging.yml

file. You can do this by setting the

PREFECT_LOGGING_CONFIG_PATH

environment variable to the path of your

logging.yml

file:

sh
export PREFECT_LOGGING_CONFIG_PATH=/path/to/logging.yml

Once you've updated your environment or profile with this path, Prefect will use the logging configuration from your

logging.yml

file when it starts up. Keep in mind, if

SqlAlchemyConnector

or any other Prefect component uses a different logger, you will need to add it to the

loggers

section in the

logging.yml

file with an appropriate name and configure the logging level there. Consult Prefect documentation for specific loggers used by Prefect and its components. If there isn't documentation specific to

SqlAlchemyConnector

logging, you might need to inspect the source code or inquire with Prefect support or community for those details.
