Getting Django to log errors to a file and everything else to the console

Question

Given the following logging config:

settings.py

LOGGING = {
    "version": 1,
    "disable_existing_loggers": False,
    "filters": {
        "require_debug_false": {"()": "django.utils.log.RequireDebugFalse",},
        "require_debug_true": {"()": "django.utils.log.RequireDebugTrue",},
    },
    "formatters": {
        "django.server": {
            "()": "django.utils.log.ServerFormatter",
            "format": "[{server_time}] {message}",
            "style": "{",
        }
    },
    "handlers": {
        "console": {"level": "INFO", "filters": ["require_debug_true"], "class": "logging.StreamHandler",},
        "file": {
            "level": "ERROR",
            "filters": ["require_debug_false"],
            "class": "logging.FileHandler",
            "filename": BASE_DIR / "debug.log",
        },
        "django.server": {"level": "INFO", "class": "logging.StreamHandler", "formatter": "django.server",},
        "mail_admins": {
            "level": "ERROR",
            "filters": ["require_debug_false"],
            "class": "django.utils.log.AdminEmailHandler",
        },
    },
    "loggers": {
        "django": {"handlers": ["file", "console"], "level": "INFO",},
        "django.server": {"handlers": ["django.server"], "level": "INFO", "propagate": False,},
    },
}

Present Output

Console logs information- and warning-level alerts to the console
Log file debug.log is created
Compilation errors are not printed to the log file in production

What about this config does not allow errors to be sent to the log file?

Is your `DEBUG` setting set to `False`? Since you added`require_debug_true` to the console handler, that will block it right? — Brian Destura, Aug 20 '21 at 00:11
@bdbd `Debug` is being set to `True` in development, and `False` in production. — TropicalRaisel, Aug 20 '21 at 15:16
