Include logging configuration in file read by configparser

I use configparser to read some configuration options for my application and I'd like to read the logging configuration as well.

Can I do that in the same file? How should I name the logging specific sections?

I'll answer my own question since the advice from @chepner helped.

Considering the python documentation, I could just pass the object the configparser.ConfigParser creates as argument to the logging.config.fileConfig function

Here is the snipper:

config = configparser.ConfigParser()
config['general'] = {'default-option': 'blah'}
config.read(configFile)
# Logging configuration
logging.config.fileConfig(config, disable_existing_loggers=False)
