It replaces verbose text-based logging with a compact format that generates an interactive HTML viewer (log.html), reducing disk space while improving readability. The library uses an AST-based pre-import hook to automatically capture execution traces without requiring explicit logging calls throughout your code, though it also provides manual logging APIs (critical, warn, info, debug, exception, html) when needed.\n\nThe package is primarily intended to be used through robocorp-tasks, which handles configuration via pyproject.toml. However, it exposes core APIs for suppressing sensitive data, hiding specific variables or methods, and sanitizing HTML content. It supports Python 3.10 through 3.14 and has no known security vulnerabilities. Note that the auto-import mechanism does not support coroutines (async/await, greenlet) and requires logging setup before importing modules you want to trace.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are building Python automation or RPA workflows where failure diagnostics and log readability matter. The low install friction, active maintenance, permissive license, and zero known vulnerabilities make it safe to adopt. The main caveat is that it requires setup before importing modules you want to trace and does not support async/await or greenlet; verify those constraints fit your codebase before committing."},"id":"robocorp-log","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/robocorp-log","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/robocorp-log.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/robocorp-log/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-03-13","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"robocorp-log","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Automatic trace logging for Python"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":346216,"position":7357,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"3.1.2"}
