log messages appearing twice with Python Logging

Question

I\'m using Python logging, and for some reason, all of my messages are appearing twice.

I have a module to configure logging:

# BUG: It\'s outputting

In my case I'd to set logger.propagate = False to prevent double printing.

In below code if you remove logger.propagate = False then you will see double printing.

import logging
from typing import Optional

_logger: Optional[logging.Logger] = None

def get_logger() -> logging.Logger:
    global _logger
    if _logger is None:
        raise RuntimeError('get_logger call made before logger was setup!')
    return _logger

def set_logger(name:str, level=logging.DEBUG) -> None:
    global _logger
    if _logger is not None:
        raise RuntimeError('_logger is already setup!')
    _logger = logging.getLogger(name)
    _logger.handlers.clear()
    _logger.setLevel(level)
    ch = logging.StreamHandler()
    ch.setLevel(level)
    # warnings.filterwarnings("ignore", "(Possibly )?corrupt EXIF data", UserWarning)
    ch.setFormatter(_get_formatter())
    _logger.addHandler(ch)
    _logger.propagate = False # otherwise root logger prints things again


def _get_formatter() -> logging.Formatter:
    return logging.Formatter(
        '[%(asctime)s] [%(name)s] [%(levelname)s] %(message)s')
