LogMetadata

Zusammenfassung

The LogMetadata class controls whether metadata will be included when running geoprocessing tools.

Diskussion

Metadata logging is activated by default. When using the LogMetadata class as a function decorator or in a with block as a context manager, the logging settings will only persist for the duration of the function or with block. To set metadata logging for an entire script, use the SetLogMetadata function.
