To make the logs more verbose and detailed in the QR_code_generator.py file, I would need to clarify a few points regarding the current logging setup and the desired level of verbosity:

1. Current Logging Setup: Is there an existing logging mechanism in place within the QR_code_generator.py file? If so, could you provide details on the current logging configuration (e.g., log levels, log format, log destination)?

2. Desired Verbosity: What specific information should be included in the verbose logs? For example, should the logs include timestamps, function names, line numbers, execution time, or additional data processing details?

3. Error Handling: How should the logging handle errors or exceptions? Should there be a stack trace or a custom error message logged?

4. Performance Impact: Is there a concern about the potential performance impact of more verbose logging, especially if the QR code generation is part of a larger, performance-sensitive application?

5. Log Rotation and Retention: Should the logging system implement log rotation or specify a retention policy for the log files?

6. User Configuration: Should the level of verbosity be configurable by the user running the script, perhaps via command-line arguments or a configuration file?

7. External Dependencies: Are there any restrictions on adding external dependencies for logging purposes, or is it preferred to use Python's built-in logging module?

8. Sensitive Information: Should the logs avoid including sensitive information, such as the actual URLs being converted into QR codes?

Once these questions are answered, I can proceed with implementing the enhanced logging functionality in the QR_code_generator.py file.
##If you just want to test us out without providing a lot of answers, Just comment DEFAULT and we will take the workflow forward with assumptions :)

The change plan adds a detailed logging mechanism to the 'QR_code_generator.py' script. This includes initializing the logging configuration, adding logging statements at key points, and handling exceptions with appropriate log messages.

1. File: QR_code_generator.py

Add import statement for the logging module. Initialize the logging configuration at the beginning of the script with a basicConfig setting the log level to DEBUG and specifying a log format that includes the timestamp, level name, and message. Wrap the QR code generation process in a try-except block to catch any exceptions and log them. Add logging statements at key points in the script, such as before and after the QR code is generated, when the image is saved, and when the script completes execution.

Next steps :-

The development team should lint the updated script to ensure compliance with coding standards. They should perform unit testing to verify that the logging is functioning correctly and that the QR code generation is not impacted. Integration testing should be conducted if the script is part of a larger system. Finally, the team should prepare for deployment by reviewing the logging output and ensuring that the script's performance remains acceptable.

Steps after merging :-

Review the log file to ensure that the new verbose logging is capturing the desired information without including sensitive data. Check that the log file size is manageable and does not grow excessively large during normal operation.
