* Docs are not complete * Config files are a little bit hard to comprehend An alternate configuration mechanism is provided by the [[http://www.zope.org/Members/fdrake/zconfig/|ZConfig]] package ([[http://pypi.python.org/pypi/ZConfig/|PyPI]]). (Note ZConfig is not a small package to pull in.) * API uses camelCase (goes against PEP8 recommendation and most of the stdlib) * Rather slow considering the large number of function calls performed internally to check which handler to use * Doesn't have runtime scoping (i.e., log messages handled based on the call stack) * Difficult to extend log records * Difficult to add general context to log messages (e.g., add the request URL to all logging messages during the request) * By default it does nothing; basicConfig makes it do something but makes it hard to tweak logging. * filters are an abstract class instead of callables |
