How to disable south debug logging in django?

Question

When I run my tests in Django, after a fail I got several pages of debug output from South, like these:

south: DEBUG: south execute "CREATE INDEX "sometable_4d5bad5" ON "video_playable" ("network_id");" with params "[]"
south: DEBUG: south execute "CREATE INDEX "sometable_790e6d98" ON "video_playable" ("published");" with params "[]"
south: DEBUG: south execute "CREATE INDEX "sometable_72312277" ON "video_playable" ("archived");" with params "[]"

And with all this logging output, the relevant error messages are lost in a sea of garbage. Is there a way to disable this ouput?

Answer 1

Put this somewhere in your code. I have it in myapp/migrations/__init__.py

import logging
south_logger=logging.getLogger('south')
south_logger.setLevel(logging.INFO)
