duallog.setup('logtest')
# Generate some log messages.
logging.debug('Debug messages are only sent to the logfile.')
logging.info('Info messages are not shown on the console, too.')
logging.warning('Warnings appear both on the console and in the logfile.')
logging.error('Errors get the same treatment.')
logging.critical('And critical messages, of course.')
