How to print the variables in the server side

[robert1015]

After running startup.py, how can I print the variables in the functions of server side (for example, chat/chat.py) in the console? It seems directly using print() doesn't work.

To print variables in server-side functions like those in chat/chat.py after running startup.py, consider using the application's logging system instead of print(). Here's a quick guide:

1. Import and use the logger: Ensure chat/chat.py imports the logger from the application's configuration or uses Python's built-in logging module.

2. Adjust the log level: The logger's effectiveness depends on its log level. For debugging, set it to DEBUG either in startup.py or within your function to ensure all messages are captured.

3. Log your variables: Replace print(variable) with logger.debug(variable) or logger.info(variable) for appropriate visibility.

Example snippet for logging:

from configs import logger

def some_function():
    variable_to_print = "This is a test"
    logger.debug(f"Debugging variable: {variable_to_print}")

Ensure the logger is configured to output DEBUG or INFO level messages. This might involve adjusting the logger's configuration in startup.py:

logger.setLevel("DEBUG")

This setup allows you to see variable values in the console, facilitating debugging without altering the global logging configuration significantly.

after using logger.debug(), where should I check the result? I cant find it.
