[Request]Console output logging

[skeith]

I would like to request console output logging to a file.

despite what I said on discord, this is fairly easy to implement... you just need to rewrite main.py, or add to it

specifically, add another TimedRotatingFileHandler that only "logs" INFO level messages, the way the console_handler does here:
https://github.com/wlerin/showroom/blob/master/showroom/main.py#L42

In fact I think you can add more log handlers at a whim, without even needing to change that file.

I'd like to revise how all of that is done though, it's pretty hackish.

iirc though the reason you wanted this is much easier to accomplish by reading schedule.json

I thought about reading the json using tail. I'll take a look again.

The json needs to be fully reparsed, it can't just be read piecemeal. It's not very large so that shouldn't be a problem. Just watch the file for changes (i.e. check the modification date) and read it in when it updates.
