shadow4.tools.logger

Logging verbosity helpers for shadow4.

The module wraps Python’s standard logging root logger with a simple two-level interface (verbose / debug) so that the rest of shadow4 does not need to import logging directly.

Default level is WARNING, meaning neither is_verbose() nor is_debug() returns True until explicitly enabled.

Example usage:

from shadow4.tools.logger import set_verbose, printlog

set_verbose(1)
printlog("ray tracing started")   # emits at INFO level

Functions

`is_debug`()	Return `True` if the root logger level is DEBUG or lower.
`is_verbose`()	Return `True` if the root logger level is INFO or lower.
`printlog`(*args)	Emit a message at INFO level via the root logger.
`set_debug`(status)	Set the root logger to DEBUG or back to WARNING.
`set_verbose`([status])	Set the root logger to INFO (verbose) or back to WARNING.
