Add date to Trac's log

[dserodio@…]

Currently, Trac log file is in the following format:

16:07:52 Trac[api] DEBUG: Updating wiki page index/Maglor/

The log file should also contain the date of the log messages, preferrably in ISO -8601 format, like:

2006-02-15 16:07:52 Trac[api] DEBUG: Updating wiki page index/Maglor/

[anonymous]

Yes, please, this would be most useful.

In log.py, the date/time is formatted using %(asctime)s, which according to the Python documentation should include the date in the string by default. My system showed only the time, though. I added from datetime import datetime to the top of log.py, then rebuilt, and now the log file displays the date.

Well actually I have the date right now, without the change (Linux w/Python 2.4, Windows w/Python 2.3 and 2.4, for both trunk and 0.9-stable).

Please reopen if this doesn't work for you for some reason on 0.10dev.

Sorry, my mistake, I thought it worked for me…

In [3171], the full time is shown even in DEBUG mode, as requested here.

I'll check the above on Unix, to see if there's a need to add the date information for syslog type, or if that's done automatically by the system, like on Windows using the winlog mode.

Adding the date information for the file and stderr types was enough: there's no need to add the date for the syslog type, it's done by the system.
