Method _openFile Open the log file.

Inherited from BaseLogFile:

Class Method fromFullPath Construct a log file from a full file path.
Method __init__ Create a log file.
Method close Close the file.
Method flush Flush the file.
Method getCurrentLog Return a LogReader for the current log file.
Method reopen Reopen the log file. This is mainly useful if you use an external log rotation tool, which moves under your feet.

def __getstate__(self): (source)

Undocumented

def getLog(self, identifier): (source)

Given a unix time, return a LogReader for an old log file.

def rotate(self): (source)

Rotate the file and create a new one.

If it's not possible to open new logfile, this will fail silently, and continue logging to old logfile.

def shouldRotate(self): (source)
overrides twisted.python.logfile.BaseLogFile.shouldRotate

Rotate when the date has changed since last write

def suffix(self, tupledate): (source)

Return the suffix given a (year, month, day) tuple or unixtime

def toDate(self, *args): (source)

Convert a unixtime to (year, month, day) localtime tuple, or return the current (year, month, day) localtime tuple.

This function primarily exists so you may overload it with gmtime, or some cruft to make unit testing possible.

def write(self, data): (source)
overrides twisted.python.logfile.BaseLogFile.write

Write some data to the log file

lastDate = (source)

Undocumented

def _openFile(self): (source)
overrides twisted.python.logfile.BaseLogFile._openFile

Open the log file.

The log file is always opened in binary mode.
