Description

Currently the Python API has two forms of information display:

  • Logging with the built-in logging Python module.
  • Custom printouts which are displayed in colour using click.

The issue here is that logging statements are sent as Events to the server, but these printouts are not.
Discussion needs to be had on how to handle these two cases.

Research direction

Start by reading the Python API's uses of the built-in logging module and Click-based coloured printouts. Compare which messages become server Events and which do not, then clarify the intended handling for both cases before defining completion criteria.
