我刚刚写了一个我自己的日志处理程序，它只是通过管道将所有内容提供给父进程。我只测试了十分钟，但它似乎工作得很好。

(注意:这是硬编码到RotatingFileHandler，这是我自己的用例。)

更新:@javier现在将这种方法作为Pypi上可用的包来维护-参见Pypi上的multiprocessing-logging, github上的https://github.com/jruere/multiprocessing-logging

更新:实现!

现在它使用队列来正确地处理并发，并正确地从错误中恢复。现在，我已经在生产中使用了几个月了，下面的当前版本工作起来没有问题。

from logging.handlers import RotatingFileHandler
import multiprocessing, threading, logging, sys, traceback

class MultiProcessingLog(logging.Handler):
    def __init__(self, name, mode, maxsize, rotate):
        logging.Handler.__init__(self)

        self._handler = RotatingFileHandler(name, mode, maxsize, rotate)
        self.queue = multiprocessing.Queue(-1)

        t = threading.Thread(target=self.receive)
        t.daemon = True
        t.start()

    def setFormatter(self, fmt):
        logging.Handler.setFormatter(self, fmt)
        self._handler.setFormatter(fmt)

    def receive(self):
        while True:
            try:
                record = self.queue.get()
                self._handler.emit(record)
            except (KeyboardInterrupt, SystemExit):
                raise
            except EOFError:
                break
            except:
                traceback.print_exc(file=sys.stderr)

    def send(self, s):
        self.queue.put_nowait(s)

    def _format_record(self, record):
        # ensure that exc_info and args
        # have been stringified.  Removes any chance of
        # unpickleable things inside and possibly reduces
        # message size sent over the pipe
        if record.args:
            record.msg = record.msg % record.args
            record.args = None
        if record.exc_info:
            dummy = self.format(record)
            record.exc_info = None

        return record

    def emit(self, record):
        try:
            s = self._format_record(record)
            self.send(s)
        except (KeyboardInterrupt, SystemExit):
            raise
        except:
            self.handleError(record)

    def close(self):
        self._handler.close()
        logging.Handler.close(self)

如果在日志模块中的锁、线程和fork的组合中出现死锁，则在错误报告6721中报告(另见相关SO问题)。

有一个小的解决方案张贴在这里。

但是，这只会修复日志记录中任何潜在的死锁。这并不能解决问题，事情可能会变得混乱。请参阅此处提供的其他答案。

下面是我简单的破解/变通方法…不是最全面的，但很容易修改，比我在写这篇文章之前找到的任何其他答案都更容易阅读和理解:

import logging
import multiprocessing

class FakeLogger(object):
    def __init__(self, q):
        self.q = q
    def info(self, item):
        self.q.put('INFO - {}'.format(item))
    def debug(self, item):
        self.q.put('DEBUG - {}'.format(item))
    def critical(self, item):
        self.q.put('CRITICAL - {}'.format(item))
    def warning(self, item):
        self.q.put('WARNING - {}'.format(item))

def some_other_func_that_gets_logger_and_logs(num):
    # notice the name get's discarded
    # of course you can easily add this to your FakeLogger class
    local_logger = logging.getLogger('local')
    local_logger.info('Hey I am logging this: {} and working on it to make this {}!'.format(num, num*2))
    local_logger.debug('hmm, something may need debugging here')
    return num*2

def func_to_parallelize(data_chunk):
    # unpack our args
    the_num, logger_q = data_chunk
    # since we're now in a new process, let's monkeypatch the logging module
    logging.getLogger = lambda name=None: FakeLogger(logger_q)
    # now do the actual work that happens to log stuff too
    new_num = some_other_func_that_gets_logger_and_logs(the_num)
    return (the_num, new_num)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    multiprocessing.freeze_support()
    m = multiprocessing.Manager()
    logger_q = m.Queue()
    # we have to pass our data to be parallel-processed
    # we also need to pass the Queue object so we can retrieve the logs
    parallelable_data = [(1, logger_q), (2, logger_q)]
    # set up a pool of processes so we can take advantage of multiple CPU cores
    pool_size = multiprocessing.cpu_count() * 2
    pool = multiprocessing.Pool(processes=pool_size, maxtasksperchild=4)
    worker_output = pool.map(func_to_parallelize, parallelable_data)
    pool.close() # no more tasks
    pool.join()  # wrap up current tasks
    # get the contents of our FakeLogger object
    while not logger_q.empty():
        print logger_q.get()
    print 'worker output contained: {}'.format(worker_output)

解决这个问题的唯一方法是非侵入性的:

Spawn each worker process such that its log goes to a different file descriptor (to disk or to pipe.) Ideally, all log entries should be timestamped. Your controller process can then do one of the following: If using disk files: Coalesce the log files at the end of the run, sorted by timestamp If using pipes (recommended): Coalesce log entries on-the-fly from all pipes, into a central log file. (E.g., Periodically select from the pipes' file descriptors, perform merge-sort on the available log entries, and flush to centralized log. Repeat.)

下面是另一个简单的解决方案，适用于从谷歌到这里的其他人(比如我)。日志记录应该很简单!仅适用于3.2或更高版本。

import multiprocessing
import logging
from logging.handlers import QueueHandler, QueueListener
import time
import random


def f(i):
    time.sleep(random.uniform(.01, .05))
    logging.info('function called with {} in worker thread.'.format(i))
    time.sleep(random.uniform(.01, .05))
    return i


def worker_init(q):
    # all records from worker processes go to qh and then into q
    qh = QueueHandler(q)
    logger = logging.getLogger()
    logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
    logger.addHandler(qh)


def logger_init():
    q = multiprocessing.Queue()
    # this is the handler for all log records
    handler = logging.StreamHandler()
    handler.setFormatter(logging.Formatter("%(levelname)s: %(asctime)s - %(process)s - %(message)s"))

    # ql gets records from the queue and sends them to the handler
    ql = QueueListener(q, handler)
    ql.start()

    logger = logging.getLogger()
    logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
    # add the handler to the logger so records from this process are handled
    logger.addHandler(handler)

    return ql, q


def main():
    q_listener, q = logger_init()

    logging.info('hello from main thread')
    pool = multiprocessing.Pool(4, worker_init, [q])
    for result in pool.map(f, range(10)):
        pass
    pool.close()
    pool.join()
    q_listener.stop()

if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

QueueHandler在Python 3.2+中是原生的，并且正是这样做的。它很容易在以前的版本中复制。

Python文档有两个完整的示例:从多个进程记录到单个文件

对于那些使用Python < 3.2的人，只需将QueueHandler从https://gist.github.com/vsajip/591589复制到自己的代码中，或者导入logutils。

每个进程(包括父进程)将其日志记录放在Queue上，然后监听线程或进程(为每个进程提供了一个示例)拾取这些日志并将它们全部写入一个文件—没有损坏或乱码的风险。
