63The amount of documentation might indicate otherwise, but the module is
64still just below 300 lines of code.
65
66=head1 LOGGING LEVELS
67
68Logging levels in this module range from C<1> (highest priority) to C<9>
69(lowest priority). Note that the lowest numerical value is the highest
70priority, so when this document says "higher priority" it means "lower
71numerical value".
72
73Instead of specifying levels by name you can also specify them by aliases:
74
75 LVL NAME SYSLOG PERL NOTE
76 1 fatal emerg exit aborts program!
77 2 alert
78 3 critical crit
79 4 error err die
80 5 warn warning
81 6 note notice
82 7 info
83 8 debug
84 9 trace
85
86As you can see, some logging levels have multiple aliases - the first one
87is the "official" name, the second one the "syslog" name (if it differs)
88and the third one the "perl" name, suggesting that you log C<die> messages
89at C<error> priority.
90
91You can normally only log a single message at highest priority level
92(C<1>, C<fatal>), because logging a fatal message will also quit the
93program - so use it sparingly :)
94
95Some methods also offer some extra levels, such as C<0>, C<off>, C<none>
96or C<all> - these are only valid in the methods they are documented for.

411The effect of all this is that log messages, by default, wander up 452The effect of all this is that log messages, by default, wander up to the

415 457
416Splitting the top level context into three contexts makes it easy to set 458This makes it easy to set a global logging level (by modifying $FILTER),
417a global logging level (by modifying the root context), but still allow 459but still allow other contexts to send, for example, their debug and trace
418other contexts to log, for example, their debug and trace messages to the
419default target despite the global logging level, or to attach additional 460messages to the $LOG target despite the global logging level, or to attach
420log targets that log messages, regardless of the global logging level. 461additional log targets that log messages, regardless of the global logging
462level.
421 463
422It also makes it easy to replace the default STDERR-logger by something 464It also makes it easy to modify the default warn-logger ($LOG) to

943 PERL_ANYEVENT_VERBOSE=5 ./myprog
944
945 $AnyEvent::Log::FILTER->level ("warn");
946
947=item Append all messages to a file instead of sending them to STDERR.

952
953=item Write all messages with priority C<error> and higher to a file.
954
955This writes them only when the global logging level allows it, because
956it is attached to the default context which is invoked I<after> global
957filtering.
958
959 $AnyEvent::Log::FILTER->attach
960 new AnyEvent::Log::Ctx log_to_file => $path);
961
962This writes them regardless of the global logging level, because it is
963attached to the toplevel context, which receives all messages I<before>
964the global filtering.
965
966 $AnyEvent::Log::COLLECT->attach (
967 new AnyEvent::Log::Ctx log_to_file => $path);
968
969In both cases, messages are still written to STDERR.
970
971=item Write trace messages (only) from L<AnyEvent::Debug> to the default logging target(s).
972
973Attach the C<$AnyEvent::Log::LOG> context to the C<AnyEvent::Debug>
974context - this simply circumvents the global filtering for trace messages.
975
976 my $debug = AnyEvent::Debug->AnyEvent::Log::ctx;
977 $debug->attach ($AnyEvent::Log::LOG);
978
979This of course works for any package, not just L<AnyEvent::Debug>, but
980assumes the log level for AnyEvent::Debug hasn't been changed from the
981default.
