Python, want logging with log rotation and compression

Question

Can anyone suggest a way in python to do logging with:

• log rotation every day
• compression of logs when they\'re rotated
• optional - delete old

Answer 1

Here is my solution(modified from evgenek), simple and does not block python code while gzipping huge log files:

class GZipRotator:
    def __call__(self, source, dest):
        os.rename(source, dest)
        subprocess.Popen(['gzip', dest])
