Axon.debugConfigFile

The readConfig() method reads debugging configuration from the specified file.

• Axon.debug.debug uses this to read configuration for itself.

Each call to output debugging information specifies what section it belongs to and the level of detail it represents. A configuration file specifies what sections should be expected and what maximum level of detail should be output for each.

Debugging configuration file format

Debugging configuration files are simple text files.

• Comments are lines beginning with a hash '#' character
• Blank lines are permitted
• Configuration lines are a space (not tab) separated triple of section name, level of detail, and location

For example:

# The following tags are for debugging the debug system
#

debugTestClass.even         5  default
debugTestClass.triple       10 default
debugTestClass.run          1  default
debugTestClass.__init__     5  default
debugTestClass.randomChange 10 default

For a given section, the level number specifies the maximum level of detail that you want outputted. Any calls to output debugging information for that section but with a higher level number will be filtered out.

The final location field is currently not used. It is recommended to specify "default" for the moment.
