Logging sikuli errors to a separate log file

Asked by stewazy

Hello everyone, I'm new to sikuli, I'm bound by the framework which has been developed on 1.0.1 sikuli and I have to find a way to export sikuli errors to a separate log file. For example on which line the test failed and where was the problem. I made a simple file writer:

file = open(logFile, 'a')
file.write(message)
file.close()

Now I would like a way to write to that log file the errors generated by sikuli. Can someone point me to the right way? I have been reading on python error and sikuli docs but I am unable to find a way.

Thank you for your support in advance.

The print output produced by Sikuli is simply going to stdout.

if it is a must, to stick with 1.0.1, then these are your options:

Just run the script from commandline and pipe the output to a file (>> operator).
then you might mix in your own messages using print

The other option is to completely switch off the Sikuli messages and setup your own logging like you mentioned above.
Use the different options, to deal with FindFailed or other exceptions with try...except... where you could write according messages to your file.

FindFaild is this like Exception e for example in java, can i write FindFailed into my log file ?

for example

def myTest()
try:
      do test
exception FindFailed:
     f= open(file,'a')
      f.write(FindFailed)
     f.close()

?

Tank you @RaiMan You are a God among men :D

here is my solution for logging error

try:
    #your test

except:
    var = traceback.format_exc()

    file = open("C:\\Sikuli\\log.log", 'a')
    file.write(var)
    file.close()
