Better logging at INFO level
Description
Downloads are currently logged at the DEBUG level, but a number of users have requested that they be logged at INFO.
The streamer already logs them at INFO, and a good discussion was had about that behavior where those involved came to consensus. A similar example that comes to mind is MTAs, where each email coming and going normally gets logged at INFO.
This would be done in two modules. HTTPThreadedDownloader and LocalFileDownloader. For example, here are some links to these where DEBUG logging currently takes place:
https://github.com/pulp/nectar/blob/4fe7327c4ad1bb2f8c040b75d80306ee047de615/nectar/downloaders/threaded.py#L267
https://github.com/pulp/nectar/blob/4fe7327c4ad1bb2f8c040b75d80306ee047de615/nectar/downloaders/local.py#L161
Implementation Details¶
It might make more sense to log right before calling the success and failure handlers, but that might miss the download_one workflow. That detail aside, I would imagine something like:
log.info('Download succeeded: {url}')
or
log.info('Download failed: {url}')

- Description updated (diff)
If we're doing this for the HTTPThreadedDownloader, we should also make similar changes in LocalFileDownloader[0]. I've edited the description to include links to both modules.
Also if this is a new Feature for nectar, that would mean this would come as a new nectar Y release right? Does the scope of this issue also include building and releasing the new nectar? If not, we need to make another issue to track that.
Since I made changes to the scope I'm not going to groom it myself.

I don't see changing the log level as a new feature. It's a slight modification to an existing behavior. Adding the same log statement to a new part of the code is an expansion of the behavior, but making a new Y release of nectar for this strikes me as overkill. In semver lingo, I wouldn't call log statements part of a "public API".

- Tracker changed from Story to Issue
- Subject changed from As a user, I can see downloads logged at INFO to Better logging at INFO level
- Severity set to 2. Medium
- Triaged set to No
mhrivnak: that sounds fine. I retitled it and switched its tracker to being an issue which makes sense I think. If this looks good to you, feel free to groom it or revert them.

Better logging at INFO level for downloads
Instead of showing success/error messages at debug level, we're now showing them at INFO. If the error message was at a level above INFO, I left it as is.
