How to print from Flask @app.route to python console

Question

I would like to simply print a \"hello world\" to the python console after /button is called by the user.

This is my naive approach:

@app.route(\'/button

I tried running @Viraj Wadate's code, but couldn't get the output from app.logger.info on the console.

To get INFO, WARNING, and ERROR messages in the console, the dictConfig object can be used to create logging configuration for all logs (source):

from logging.config import dictConfig
from flask import Flask


dictConfig({
    'version': 1,
    'formatters': {'default': {
        'format': '[%(asctime)s] %(levelname)s in %(module)s: %(message)s',
    }},
    'handlers': {'wsgi': {
        'class': 'logging.StreamHandler',
        'stream': 'ext://flask.logging.wsgi_errors_stream',
        'formatter': 'default'
    }},
    'root': {
        'level': 'INFO',
        'handlers': ['wsgi']
    }
})


app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route('/')
def index():
    return "Hello from Flask's test environment"

@app.route('/print')
def printMsg():
    app.logger.warning('testing warning log')
    app.logger.error('testing error log')
    app.logger.info('testing info log')
    return "Check your console"

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run(debug=True)
