NAME
Tie::Handle::FileWriteRotate - Filehandle tie to write to autorotated file with File::Write::Rotate
VERSION
version 0.02
SYNOPSIS
use Tie::Handle::FileWriteRotate;
tie *FH, 'Tie::Handle::FileWriteRotate',
dir=>'/some/dir', prefix=>'myapp', size=>25*1024*1024, histories=>5;
print FH "Logging a line\n";
print FH "Logging another line\n";
DESCRIPTION
This module ties a filehandle to File::Write::Rotate object.
I first wrote this module to tie STDERR, so that warnings/errors are logged to file instead of terminal (with autorotation, for good behavior).
METHODS
TIEHANDLE classname, LIST
Tie this package to file handle. LIST
will be passed to File::Write::Rotate's constructor.
TIPS
To log warnings/errors to terminal as well as autorotated file, you can do something like this instead:
my $fwr = File::Write::Rotate->new(...);
$SIG{__WARN__} = sub {
$fwr->write(~~localtime, " ", $_[0], "\n");
warn $_[0];
};
$SIG{__DIE__} = sub {
$fwr->write(~~localtime, " ", $_[0], "\n");
die $_[0];
};
