NAME

Log::Fine::Formatter::Detailed - Formatter for detailed logging

SYNOPSIS

Formats log messages for output in a detailed format.

use Log::Fine::Formatter::Detailed;
use Log::Fine::Handle::Console;

# instantiate a handle
my $handle = Log::Fine::Handle::Console->new();

# instantiate a formatter
my $formatter = Log::Fine::Formatter::Detailed
    ->new( name             => 'detail0',
           timestamp_format => "%y-%m-%d %h:%m:%s" );

# set the formatter
$handle->setFormatter( formatter => $formatter );

DESCRIPTION

The detailed formatter logs messages in two different formats, depending on where the log message came from.

If the log message came from a particular class (e.g. MyModule.pm) the detailed formatter will format as follows:

[TIMESTAMP] <LEVEL> (<Package>::Method():<Line Number>) <MESSAGE>

Otherwise, the formatter will return a slightly more basic format:

[TIMESTAMP] <LEVEL> (<Script Name>:<Line Number>) <MESSAGE>

METHODS

format($lvl, $msg, $skip)

Returns the formatted message as follows:

[TIMESTAMP] <LEVEL> (<Package>::Method():<Line Number>) <MESSAGE>

or

[TIMESTAMP] <LEVEL> (<Script Name>:<Line Number>) <MESSAGE>
