Is it good design to create a module-wide logger in python?

When coding python, I use the logging module a lot.

After some bad experiences and reading articles like this one, I try to prevent import-time executed code wherever possible.

However, for the sake of simplicity, I tend to get my logging object right at the beginning of the module file:

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import logging
logger = logging.getLogger('product.plugin.foo.bar')

This way, my logger is globally accessible and I can just write "logger.error()" anywhere. The alternative is to create it class-wide:

class Bar(object):
    logger = logging.getLogger('product.plugin.foo.bar')

However, now I have to type the Class name everytime. To prevent typing the class name, I am tempted to use "self" instead, which will fail in static methods.

    def my_method(self):
        Bar.logger.error('foo')

    def my_method_2(self):
        self.logger.error('foo') # ok...

    @staticmethod
    def my_method_2():
        self.logger.error('foo') # boom!

So, at first, it looks like creating the logger object module-wide seems like the right thing to do - still it feels like I could end up in import-related trouble when doing it like this...
