trick17.journal
The trick17.journal allows to use the systemd Native Journal Protocol via the Python Logging facility.
JournalHandler is a logging.Handler subclass that speaks the systemd Native Journal Protocol
Function stderr_is_journal() can be used to check if logging via sys.stderr should be upgraded to native logging, see Automatic Protocol Upgrading
import logging
from trick17 import journal
if journal.stderr_is_journal():
handler = journal.JournalHandler()
else:
handler = logging.StreamHandler()
root = logging.getLogger()
root.addHandler(handler)
logging.error('Something happened')

Motivation and alternatives
Many existing interfaces to systemd are python bindings to libsystemd, see e.g. python-systemd or cysystemd.
Even if most systems running under systemd will have libsystemd already installed, a native python implementation has many advantages:
easy vendoring,
pypi availability of no-ABI, platform independent wheels, with no transitive dependencies.
This package is a partial implementation of the most used (at least by me) functions of libsystemd.
Please feel free open a issue if this package is useful to you and misses a feature.
