Logging Handler + supervisord + unbuffer + tail

[singlecheeze]

What a WONDERFUL project! Thank you!

I'm running supervisord and that is writing from the python log handler to a file. I wanted colorized output while tail'ing the log file via SSH and there is an easy solution.

It would be very helpful to add to your docs here a note on the below: https://rich.readthedocs.io/en/stable/logging.html#logging-handler

Install expect (Or using whatever package manager of choice for your system; expect-dev is not required)
sudo apt install expect

Supervisord.conf

[program:Updater]
command=unbuffer python3.9 <your file>

Rich logging handler:
log.error("[bold red blink]Server is shutting down![/]", extra={"markup": True})

Reload supervisord
sudo supervisorctl reload

Tail your log file! 🎉
tail -f log.txt
