NAME

Log::Dispatch::Screen - Object for logging to the screen

VERSION

version 2.54

SYNOPSIS

use Log::Dispatch;

my $log = Log::Dispatch->new(
    outputs => [
        [
            'Screen',
            min_level => 'debug',
            stderr    => 1,
            newline   => 1
        ]
    ],
);

$log->alert("I'm searching the city for sci-fi wasabi");

DESCRIPTION

This module provides an object for logging to the screen (really STDOUT or STDERR).

Note that a newline will not be added automatically at the end of a message by default. To do that, pass newline => 1.

The handle will be autoflushed, but this module opens it's own handle to fd 1 or 2 instead of using the global STDOUT or STDERR.

CONSTRUCTOR

The constructor takes the following parameters in addition to the standard parameters documented in Log::Dispatch::Output:

• stderr (0 or 1)

  Indicates whether or not logging information should go to STDERR. If false, logging information is printed to STDOUT instead.

  This defaults to true.

• utf8 (0 or 1)

  If this is true, then the output uses binmode to apply the :encoding(UTF-8) layer to the relevant handle for output. This will not affect STDOUT or STDERR in other parts of your code.

  This defaults to false.
