## Installation

```bash
pip install lambo
```

## Usage

Create a logger using the `getLogger()` method and bind it to your Lambda handler functions with the `@bind` decorator.

```python
import lambo

logger = lambo.getLogger('my-logger')


@logger.bind
def handler(event, context):
    logger.info('HELLO!')
    return {'ok': True}
```

Or, if brevity is your thing, import the built-in logger:

```python
from lambo import logger


@logger.bind
def handler(event, context):
    logger.info('HELLO!')
    return {'ok': True}
```

## Customization

The default log level for lambo loggers is `INFO` and the default format string is `%(levelname)s %(awsRequestId)s %(message)s`, where `awsRequestId` is extracted from the Lambda execution context.

You can override these values at runtime…

```python
import lambo

logger = lambo.getLogger('my-logger', 'DEBUG', '%(message)s')
```

Or with ENV variables…

```bash
export LAMBO_LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG
export LAMBO_LOG_FORMAT="%(message)"
```
