A context manager to temporarily disable all logging in Python that supports previous calls to logging.disable.
from contextlib import contextmanager
import logging

def all_logging_disabled(highest_level=logging.CRITICAL):
"""
A context manager that will prevent any logging messages
triggered during the body from being processed.
:param highest_level: the maximum logging level in use.
This would only need to be changed if a custom level greater than CRITICAL
is defined.
"""
# two kind-of hacks here:
# * can't get the highest logging level in effect => delegate to the user
# * can't get the current module-level override => use an undocumented
# (but non-private!) interface
previous_level = logging.root.manager.disable
logging.disable(highest_level)
try:
yield
finally:
logging.disable(previous_level)
