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'
});
# 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 ] $conf
my $l = Log::Contextual::WarnLogger->new({
env_prefix
});
Creates a new logger object where env_prefix
defines what the prefix is for the environment variables that will be checked for the six log levels. For example, if env_prefix
is set to FREWS_PACKAGE
the following environment variables will be used:
FREWS_PACKAGE_TRACE
FREWS_PACKAGE_DEBUG
FREWS_PACKAGE_INFO
FREWS_PACKAGE_WARN
FREWS_PACKAGE_ERROR
FREWS_PACKAGE_FATAL
$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
$l->fatal( '1 is never equal to 0!' );
is_$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;
