pass context.config.config_args to logging.config.fileConfig

[jvanasco]

Some projects, like Pyramid, support %(here)s interpolation in .ini files for logging.

Extending Alembic to support this is trivial. The data is already computed as part of config.config_args. The env.py files just need to pass in these args as defaults:

• fileConfig(config.config_file_name)
  

• fileConfig(config.config_file_name, defaults=config.config_args)

how is this fitting into what you're doing ? is this for paths to log files? all the alembic script locations etc. I think are already consumed by the time you get to env.py

[jvanasco]

is this for paths to log files?

Yes.

if we do change this part, maybe we could add also the other flag suggested here? #1483 (reply in thread)

A quick online search suggests that may be a good idea. It seems to cause issues on many projects.

An alternative for both would just be putting some inline comments on the generated env.py file, pointing people how to do these things.

maybe we could add both providing inline docs to the rationale about the args?
Something like

fileConfig(
  config.config_file_name,
  # used for ...
  defaults=config.config_args,
  # ...
  disable_existing_loggers=False,
)
