Log HTTP Requests with Django and Gunicorn

Feb 18, 2020

To get request logging enabled on Gunicorn you have to add a logger to the logging section in your settings.py:

'gunicorn.access' : {
    'level': 'DEBUG',
    'handlers': ['console'],
    'propagate':False
}

and start up the Gunicorn server:

gunicorn -c config.py utrade.wsgi:application \
                          --log-level=debug \
                          --timeout=0 \
                          --access-logfile=-\
                          --log-file=-

You should see the incoming requests in your terminal:

INFO:django.server:"GET / HTTP/1.1" 201 0
