(log)

Submit logs to the Log Handler for Plex Media Server

• log_line - Logging a single line message.
• log_multi_line - Logging a multi-line message
• enable_paper_trail - Enabling Papertrail

This endpoint will write a single-line log message, including a level and source to the main Plex Media Server log.

from plex_api_client import PlexAPI
from plex_api_client.models import operations

s = PlexAPI(
    access_token="<YOUR_API_KEY_HERE>",
    client_id="gcgzw5rz2xovp84b4vha3a40",
    client_name="Plex Web",
    client_version="4.133.0",
    client_platform="Chrome",
    device_name="Linux",
)

res = s.log.log_line(level=operations.Level.THREE, message="Test log message", source="Postman")

if res is not None:
    # handle response
    pass

operations.LogLineResponse

This endpoint allows for the batch addition of log entries to the main Plex Media Server log.
It accepts a text/plain request body, where each line represents a distinct log entry.
Each log entry consists of URL-encoded key-value pairs, specifying log attributes such as 'level', 'message', and 'source'.

Log entries are separated by a newline character (\n).
Each entry's parameters should be URL-encoded to ensure accurate parsing and handling of special characters.
This method is efficient for logging multiple entries in a single API call, reducing the overhead of multiple individual requests.

The 'level' parameter specifies the log entry's severity or importance, with the following integer values:

• 0: Error - Critical issues that require immediate attention.
• 1: Warning - Important events that are not critical but may indicate potential issues.
• 2: Info - General informational messages about system operation.
• 3: Debug - Detailed information useful for debugging purposes.
• 4: Verbose - Highly detailed diagnostic information for in-depth analysis.

The 'message' parameter contains the log text, and 'source' identifies the log message's origin (e.g., an application name or module).

Example of a single log entry format: level=4&message=Sample%20log%20entry&source=applicationName

Ensure each parameter is properly URL-encoded to avoid interpretation issues.

"level=3&message=Test%20message%202&source=postman\n" +
"level=1&message=Test%20message%203&source=postman")

if res is not None:

operations.LogMultiLineResponse

This endpoint will enable all Plex Media Serverlogs to be sent to the Papertrail networked logging site for a period of time.

from plex_api_client import PlexAPI

s = PlexAPI(
    access_token="<YOUR_API_KEY_HERE>",
    client_id="gcgzw5rz2xovp84b4vha3a40",
    client_name="Plex Web",
    client_version="4.133.0",
    client_platform="Chrome",
    device_name="Linux",
)

res = s.log.enable_paper_trail()

if res is not None:
    # handle response
    pass
