[whishlist] add logrotate config for /var/log/privacyidea/privacyidea.log

Question
1

Hello,

the file /var/log/privacyidea/privacyidea.log on my server is 5M since
October 1st. I’d like to have all default log from the packages to
automatically rotate, so they get kept small enough. Can you add a
config file /etc/logrotate.d/privacyided.conf to the packages?

Hi Jochen,

the logging of privacyIDEA uses the python logging framework, which
supports its own log rotating.

Please see advanced logging:
http://privacyidea.readthedocs.org/en/latest/installation/system/logging.html#advanced-logging

These are the interesting lines:
class=logging.handlers.RotatingFileHandler
backupCount=14
maxBytes=10000000

Kind regards
