[dataflow] (DATAFLOW-359) SWORD logging disables global logging

[Bhavana Ananda (Commented) (JIRA)]

[ http://dataflow-jira.bodleian.ox.ac.uk/jira/browse/DATAFLOW-359?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=10500#comment-10500 ]

Bhavana Ananda commented on DATAFLOW-359:
-----------------------------------------


Just to clarify... according to the Python docs, logging.config.fileConfig by default disables all other configured loggers at the point it's called. As it appears in a module top level, we have no control over if and when it's called.

When used as a library, I think it may be more appropriate that sword client uses a configuration created by a calling program rather than creating it's own... but I find the Python logging system confuses the hell out or me, so there may well be some good reason for doing it the way you do. But we do need to figure out how to play nicely together.
