NAME
Log::Contextual::WarnLogger - Simple logger for libraries using Log::Contextual
SYNOPSIS
package My::Package; use Log::Contextual::WarnLogger; use Log::Contextual qw( :log ), -default_logger => Log::Contextual::WarnLogger->new({ env_prefix => 'MY_PACKAGE', levels => [ qw(debug info notice warning error critical alert emergency) ], }); # warns '[info] program started' if $ENV{MY_PACKAGE_TRACE} is set log_info { 'program started' }; # no-op because info is not in levels sub foo { # warns '[debug] entered foo' if $ENV{MY_PACKAGE_DEBUG} is set log_debug { 'entered foo' }; ... }
DESCRIPTION
This module is a simple logger made for libraries using Log::Contextual. We recommend the use of this logger as your default logger as it is simple and useful for most users, yet users can use "set_logger" in Log::Contextual to override your choice of logger in their own code thanks to the way Log::Contextual works.
METHODS
new Arguments: "Dict[ env_prefix => Str, levels => List ] $conf" my $l = Log::Contextual::WarnLogger->new({ env_prefix => 'BAR' }); or: my $l = Log::Contextual::WarnLogger->new({ env_prefix => 'BAR', levels => [ 'level1', 'level2' ] }); Creates a new logger object where "env_prefix" defines what the prefix is for the environment variables that will be checked for the log levels. The log levels may be customized, but if not defined, these are used: trace debug info warn error fatal For example, if "env_prefix" is set to "FREWS_PACKAGE" the following environment variables will be used: FREWS_PACKAGE_UPTO FREWS_PACKAGE_TRACE FREWS_PACKAGE_DEBUG FREWS_PACKAGE_INFO FREWS_PACKAGE_WARN FREWS_PACKAGE_ERROR FREWS_PACKAGE_FATAL Note that "UPTO" is a convenience variable. If you set "FOO_UPTO=TRACE" it will enable all log levels. Similarly, if you set it to "FATAL" only fatal will be enabled. $level Arguments: @anything All of the following six methods work the same. The basic pattern is: sub $level { my $self = shift; warn "[$level] " . join qq{\n}, @_; if $self->is_$level; } trace $l->trace( 'entered method foo with args ' join q{,}, @args ); debug $l->debug( 'entered method foo' ); info $l->info( 'started process foo' ); warn $l->warn( 'possible misconfiguration at line 10' ); error $l->error( 'non-numeric user input!' ); fatal $l->fatal( '1 is never equal to 0!' ); If different levels are specified, appropriate functions named for your custom levels work as you expect. is_$level All of the following six functions just return true if their respective environment variable is enabled. is_trace say 'tracing' if $l->is_trace; is_debug say 'debuging' if $l->is_debug; is_info say q{info'ing} if $l->is_info; is_warn say 'warning' if $l->is_warn; is_error say 'erroring' if $l->is_error; is_fatal say q{fatal'ing} if $l->is_fatal; If different levels are specified, appropriate is_$level functions work as you would expect.
