DISCLAIMER!

As of release 1.3 Django uses standard Python logging for everything, including
request exception. Thus django_errorlog is no longer needed. See Django docs
for [setting up logging handlers][0].

## WHAT'S THIS

By default Django sends server errors by email which might be not convenient
(you can't setup monitoring) and not always secure (a single bug in a hot place
could overflow mail server). Django_errorlog enables logging of server errors
with standard Python logging.

## USAGE

To install in a Django project:

1.  Include 'django_errorlog' into INSTALLED_APPS

2.  Setup handlers for log channels 'exception' and 'traceback' with usual
    Python [logging handlers][1]. It's a good idea to have a separate file (or
    whatever) for 'traceback' logger because its messages don't fit on a single
    line and hence not easily grep'able.

3.  To disable default mailing of server errors you can leave ADMINS setting
    empty or not setup SMTP_HOST.

The application works automatically: it listents for a signal that Django sends
on all uncaught server errors and then logs short exception values and full
tracebacks into their respective log channels.

There are two utility functions in django_errorlog.utils: log_error and
log_warning. They can be used to manually log exception that you do handle in
your code. They accept exc_info (a triple of (exceptions, value, traceback) as
an argument. If called without arguments they get it from sys.exc_info().
