How to send LiteLLM Proxy Logs to file

[kmilo9999]

Hello all. quick LiteLLM Proxy question here.
I see that the application system logs are being sent to stdout. Is there a way to send them to a file instead? I tried setting the LITELLM_LOG_FILE environment variable, but it doesn’t seem to be working. I’d appreciate the help. In fact, checking the source code, LITELLM_LOG_FILE  is only referenced in the documentation, but I dont see it being used in the code.

LITELLM_LOG_FILE isn t implemented in the code (it s mentioned in docs but not used). For now, you can:\n\n- Redirect stdout when starting the proxy: litellm --config config.yaml > /path/to/litellm.log 2>&1\n- Or use a custom callback that writes logs to a file\n- Or use a built-in callback like s3/gcs/azure to ship logs\n\nIf you just want local file logging, stdout redirection is the simplest.
