How to enable agent logging in the Manager?¶

The Manager does not configure logging when an agent starts on a worker within an executor. We recommend using the worker initialization features of executors to configure logging, such as by calling init_logging() or logging.basicConfig(). For example, use the initializer argument when using a ProcessPoolExecutor.

import logging
import multiprocessing
from concurrent.futures import ProcessPoolExecutor
from academy.logging import init_logging
from academy.manager import Manager

mp_context = multiprocessing.get_context('spawn')
executor = ProcessPoolExecutor(
    max_workers=3,
    initializer=init_logging,
    initargs=(logging.INFO,),
    mp_context=mp_context,
)

async with await Manager(..., executors=executor) as manager:
