Logs a warning message using a named logger instance for the EmailForwarder application.

Purpose

This function provides a standardized way to log warning-level messages within the EmailForwarder application. It retrieves or creates a logger named 'EmailForwarder' and writes the provided message at the WARNING level. This is useful for reporting non-critical issues, deprecated features, or situations that may require attention but don't prevent the application from functioning.

Source Code

def log_warning(message: str):
    logging.getLogger("EmailForwarder").warning(message)

Parameters

Parameter Details

message: A string containing the warning message to be logged. This should be a descriptive message explaining the warning condition or issue. No specific format constraints, but should be human-readable and informative.

Return Value

This function does not return any value (implicitly returns None). It performs a side effect of writing to the logging system.

Dependencies

• logging

Required Imports

import logging

Usage Example

import logging

# Optional: Configure logging before use
logging.basicConfig(level=logging.WARNING, format='%(name)s - %(levelname)s - %(message)s')

def log_warning(message: str):
    logging.getLogger("EmailForwarder").warning(message)

# Use the function
log_warning("Failed to connect to SMTP server, retrying...")
log_warning("Email attachment size exceeds recommended limit")

Best Practices

• Ensure logging is configured before calling this function to see output
• Use this function consistently throughout the EmailForwarder application for warning-level messages to maintain a unified logging approach
• Provide clear, actionable warning messages that help diagnose issues
• Consider using logging levels appropriately: use log_warning for non-critical issues, not for errors that prevent operation
• The logger name 'EmailForwarder' is hardcoded, so this function is specifically designed for the EmailForwarder application context
