To accurately implement the logging functionality in the QR_code_generator.py script, I would need to clarify a few points regarding the requirements:

1. Logging Level: What level of logging is required? Do we want to log debug messages, informational messages, warnings, errors, or critical issues, or a combination of these?

2. Log Output: Where should the logs be written? Do we want to output the logs to the console, to a file, or both?

3. Log Format: Is there a specific format that the log messages should follow? For example, should each log message include a timestamp, the level of the log, the message itself, and any other context information?

4. Log Rotation: If we are logging to a file, do we need log rotation to prevent the log files from growing indefinitely? If so, what criteria should we use for the rotation (e.g., file size, time interval, etc.)?

5. Error Handling: How should the script handle situations where logging fails (e.g., file permissions issues, disk space errors, etc.)?

6. Performance Considerations: Are there any performance considerations we should be aware of? For instance, should we be concerned about the impact of logging on the execution time of the script, especially if it's generating a large number of QR codes in a batch process?

7. Configuration: Should the logging configuration be hard-coded in the script, or do we want to allow users to configure logging via a configuration file or command-line arguments?

8. Existing Logging: Is there any existing logging mechanism in place that needs to be integrated with or replaced?

9. Sensitive Information: Since QR codes can encode sensitive information, do we need to take any precautions to ensure that the URLs or other sensitive data are not logged, or should they be obfuscated in the logs?

10. Dependencies: Are there any preferences for logging libraries or frameworks, or should we use the built-in logging module in Python?

Clarifying these points will help ensure that the logging functionality is implemented to meet the project's needs and expectations.

The change plan adds detailed logging functionality to the 'QR_code_generator.py' script, including log level, output, format, rotation, and error handling. The plan ensures that sensitive information is not logged and that exceptions are properly caught and logged.

1. File: QR_code_generator.py

Add import statement for the logging module. Define a logging configuration at the start of the script using logging.basicConfig() to set the logging level to INFO and specify the log file name 'qr_code_generator.log' with a file mode 'a' for appending. Configure the log format to include the timestamp, level, and message. Set up a RotatingFileHandler for the log file with a max size of 1MB and a backup count of 5. Add logging statements to log the start of the QR code generation process, any exceptions or errors, and the successful creation of the QR code image. Ensure that the input_URL is not logged in clear text to avoid leaking sensitive information. Implement try-except blocks around the QR code generation and file-saving code to catch and log any exceptions.

Next steps :-

The development team should lint the updated script using tools like flake8 or pylint to ensure code quality. They should test the script by running it and verifying that the logs are generated as expected, including during error conditions. After successful testing, the script can be committed and pushed to the repository. The team should then deploy the updated script to the production environment and monitor the logs for any unexpected behavior.

Steps after merging :-

Review the log file 'qr_code_generator.log' to ensure that logging is capturing the correct information. Check that the log rotation is working as expected by verifying the creation of backup log files. Confirm that no sensitive information is being logged in clear text.
