def toDate(self, *args): (source)

Convert a unixtime to (year, month, day) localtime tuple, or return the current (year, month, day) localtime tuple.

This function primarily exists so you may overload it with gmtime, or some cruft to make unit testing possible.

def rotate(self): (source)

Rotate the file and create a new one.

If it's not possible to open new logfile, this will fail silently, and continue logging to old logfile.
