Django Logger vs Logging Middleware

I want to log every request sent to Django.

There are some posts online about logging middleware. The Django documentation talks about logger configuration and it seems that I can set it up to log everything without writing middleware.

For anyone looking for sample of logging middle ware create a folder in your project name middleware and create init.py under that folder and create a file name logging.py and copy this sample code.

import logging
import time
logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
handler = logging.StreamHandler()
formatter = logging.Formatter(fmt="%(asctime)s %(levelname)s; %(message)s")
handler.formatter = formatter
logger.addHandler(handler)
logger.setLevel(logging.INFO)


class LoggingMiddleware:
    def __init__(self, get_response):
        self.get_response = get_response

    def __call__(self, request):
        
        start_time = time.time()
        request_data = {
            "method": request.method,
            'ip_address': request.META.get('REMOTE_ADDR'),
            'path': request.path
        }

        logger.info(request_data)

        response = self.get_response(request)
        duration = time.time() - start_time
        response_dict = {
            "status_code": response.status_code,
            "duration": round(duration, 2)
        }
        logger.info(response_dict)

        return response

then in your settings.py import the middleware that you created for example

MIDDLEWARE = [
        'yourapp.middleware.logging.LoggingMiddleware',
  
    ]
