How to output to the console and file?

Question

I\'m trying to find out a way in python to redirect the script execution log to a file as well as stdout in a pythonic way. Is there any easy way of achieving t

Answer 1

Probably the shortest solution:

def printLog(*args, **kwargs):
    print(*args, **kwargs)
    with open('output.out','a') as file:
        print(*args, **kwargs, file=file)

printLog('hello world')

Writes 'hello world' to sys.stdout and to output.out and works exactly the same way as print().

Note: Please do not specify the file argument for the printLog function. Calls like printLog('test',file='output2.out') are not supported.
