A simple Python logging utility with console/file output and automatic log cleanup. This library provides an easy-to-use interface for setting up logging in your Python projects with minimal configuration.
Key Features:
- Simple setup with one function call
- Session tracking with auto-generated UUID to trace logs from the same execution
- Dual output: log to console for debugging and file for persistent records
- Auto cleanup: keep only recent logs (default: 3 days), no manual deletion needed
This project uses Python 3.x with only standard library modules (no external dependencies required).
