  Logger which specifies the handler, in this case it is file

    }
  File handler specifies the filename "logapp.log", also specifies theformatter in this case it is simple.
  'handlers': {
        'file':{
            'level':'DEBUG',
            'class':'logging.FileHandler',
            'filename':'logapp.log',
            'formatter':'simple'
        },
    }
  Formatter specifies the formatter in this case it is 'simple'.
 'formatters':{
