python module level logging

Can I use ContextFilters in python logging to change loglevels based on modulenames. So something like 

class ContextFilter(logging.Filter):
  CMDID_cf="IAMTEST1"
  def __init__(self, CMDID1): 
  self.CMDID_cf=CMDID1

  def filter(self,record):
    record.CMDID=self.CMDID_cf
    return True

  def moduleFilter(self):
     //something like below//
     if(modulename=="something")
     setLevel(logging.ERROR)

  #MAIN
  **define logger**
  obj=ContextFilter()
  logging.addFilter(obj.modukeFilter)

In the python documentation I haven't really found out anything about this so any help pointing to this would be great.

The appropriate way, which is documented here, is to use module-level loggers named with __name__ and to then set their levels as desired in the logging configuration. There's no need to use a Filter for this.
