NAME

       Net::Server::Log::Log::Log4perl - log via Log4perl

SYNOPSIS

           use base qw(Net::Server::PreFork);

           __PACKAGE__->run(
               log_file => 'Log::Log4perl',
               log4perl_conf => '/path/to/my/log4perl.conf',
               log4perl_logger => 'myapp',
           );

DESCRIPTION

       This module provides Log::Log4perl style logging to the Net::Server system.

CONFIGURATION

       log_file
           To begin using Log::Log4perl logging, simply set the Net::Server log_file
           configuration parameter to "Log::Log4perl".

           If the magic name "Log::Log4perl" is used, all logging will be directed to the
           Log4perl system.  If used, the "log4perl_conf", "log4perl_poll", "log4perl_logger" may
           also be defined.

       log4perl_conf
           Only available if "log_file" is equal to "Log::Log4perl".  This is the filename of the
           log4perl configuration file - see Log::Log4perl. If this is not set, will die on
           startup. If the file is not readable, will die.

       log4perl_poll
           If set to a value, will initialize with Log::Log4perl::init_and_watch with this
           polling value. This can also be the string "HUP" to re-read the log4perl_conf when a
           HUP signal is received. If set to 0, no polling is done. See Log::Log4perl for more
           details.

       log4perl_logger
           This is the facility name. Defaults to "Net::Server".

DEFAULT ARGUMENTS FOR Net::Server

       The following arguments are available in the default "Net::Server" or
       "Net::Server::Single" modules.  (Other personalities may use additional parameters and may
       optionally not use parameters from the base class.)

           Key               Value                    Default

           ## log4perl parameters (if log_file eq Log::Log4perl)
           log4perl_conf     "filename"               will die if not set
           log4perl_poll     number or HUP            0 (no polling)
           log4perl_logger   "name"                   "Net::Server"

METHODS

       "initialize"
           This method is called during the initilize_logging method of Net::Server.  It returns
           a single code ref that will be stored under the log_function property of the
           Net::Server object.  That code ref takes log_level and message as arguments and calls
           the initialized log4perl system.
