61The amount of documentation might indicate otherwise, but the module is
62still just below 300 lines of code.
63
64=head1 LOGGING LEVELS
65
66Logging levels in this module range from C<1> (highest priority) to C<9>
67(lowest priority). Note that the lowest numerical value is the highest
68priority, so when this document says "higher priority" it means "lower
69numerical value".
70
71Instead of specifying levels by name you can also specify them by aliases:
72
73 LVL NAME SYSLOG PERL NOTE
74 1 fatal emerg exit aborts program!
75 2 alert
76 3 critical crit
77 4 error err die
78 5 warn warning
79 6 note notice
80 7 info
81 8 debug
82 9 trace
83
84As you can see, some logging levels have multiple aliases - the first one
85is the "official" name, the second one the "syslog" name (if it differs)
86and the third one the "perl" name, suggesting that you log C<die> messages
87at C<error> priority.
88
89You can normally only log a single message at highest priority level
90(C<1>, C<fatal>), because logging a fatal message will also quit the
91program - so use it sparingly :)
92
93Some methods also offer some extra levels, such as C<0>, C<off>, C<none>
94or 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 450The effect of all this is that log messages, by default, wander up to the
412to the root context where log messages with lower priority then 451C<$AnyEvent::Log::COLLECT> context where all messages normally end up,
452from there to C<$AnyEvent::Log::FILTER> where log messages with lower

414AnyEvent::Log::Default context to be logged to STDERR. 454to the C<$AnyEvent::Log::LOG> context to be passed to C<warn>.
415 455
416Splitting the top level context into three contexts makes it easy to set 456This makes it easy to set a global logging level (by modifying $FILTER),
417a global logging level (by modifying the root context), but still allow 457but 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 458messages to the $LOG target despite the global logging level, or to attach
420log targets that log messages, regardless of the global logging level. 459additional log targets that log messages, regardless of the global logging
460level.
421 461
422It also makes it easy to replace the default STDERR-logger by something 462It also makes it easy to modify the default warn-logger ($LOG) to
423that logs to a file, or to attach additional logging targets. 463something that logs to a file, or to attach additional logging targets

948
949Logging can also be configured by setting the environment variable
950C<PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG> (or C<AE_LOG>).
951
952The value consists of one or more logging context specifications separated
953by C<:> or whitespace. Each logging specification in turn starts with a
954context name, followed by C<=>, followed by zero or more comma-separated
955configuration directives, here are some examples:
956
957 # set default logging level
958 filter=warn
959
960 # log to file instead of to stderr
961 log=file=/tmp/mylog
962
963 # log to file in addition to stderr
964 log=+%file:%file=file=/tmp/mylog
965
966 # enable debug log messages, log warnings and above to syslog
967 filter=debug:log=+%warnings:%warnings=warn,syslog=LOG_LOCAL0
968
969 # log trace messages (only) from AnyEvent::Debug to file
970 AnyEvent::Debug=+%trace:%trace=only,trace,file=/tmp/tracelog
971
972A context name in the log specification can be any of the following:
973
974=over 4
975
976=item C<collect>, C<filter>, C<log>
977
978Correspond to the three predefined C<$AnyEvent::Log::COLLECT>,
979C<AnyEvent::Log::FILTER> and C<$AnyEvent::Log::LOG> contexts.
980
981=item C<%name>
982
983Context names starting with a C<%> are anonymous contexts created when the
984name is first mentioned. The difference to package contexts is that by
985default they have no attached slaves.
986
987=item a perl package name
988
989Any other string references the logging context associated with the given
990Perl C<package>. In the unlikely case where you want to specify a package
991context that matches on of the other context name forms, you can add a
992C<::> to the package name to force interpretation as a package.
993
994=back
995
996The configuration specifications can be any number of the following:
997
998=over 4
999
1000=item C<stderr>
1001
1002Configures the context to use Perl's C<warn> function (which typically
1003logs to C<STDERR>). Works like C<log_to_warn>.
1004
1005=item C<file=>I<path>
1006
1007Configures the context to log to a file with the given path. Works like
1008C<log_to_file>.
1009
1010=item C<path=>I<path>
1011
1012Configures the context to log to a file with the given path. Works like
1013C<log_to_path>.
1014
1015=item C<syslog> or C<syslog=>I<expr>
1016
1017Configured the context to log to syslog. If I<expr> is given, then it is
1018evaluated in the L<Sys::Syslog> package, so you could use:
1019
1020 log=syslog=LOG_LOCAL0
1021
1022=item C<nolog>
1023
1024Configures the context to not log anything by itself, which is the
1025default. Same as C<< $ctx->log_cb (undef) >>.
1026
1027=item C<0> or C<off>
1028
1029Sets the logging level of the context ot C<0>, i.e. all messages will be
1030filtered out.
1031
1032=item C<all>
1033
1034Enables all logging levels, i.e. filtering will effectively be switched
1035off (the default).
1036
1037=item C<only>
1038
1039Disables all logging levels, and changes the interpretation of following
1040level specifications to enable the specified level only.
1041
1042Example: only enable debug messages for a context.
1043
1044 context=only,debug
1045
1046=item C<except>
1047
1048Enables all logging levels, and changes the interpretation of following
1049level specifications to disable that level. Rarely used.
1050
1051Example: enable all logging levels except fatal and trace (this is rather
1052nonsensical).
1053
1054 filter=exept,fatal,trace
1055
1056=item C<level>
1057
1058Enables all logging levels, and changes the interpretation of following
1059level specifications to be "that level or any higher priority
1060message". This is the default.
1061
1062Example: log anything at or above warn level.
1063
1064 filter=warn
1065
1066 # or, more verbose
1067 filter=only,level,warn
1068
1069=item C<1>..C<9>, a logging level name (C<error>, C<debug> etc.)
1070
1071A numeric loglevel or the name of a loglevel will be interpreted according
1072to the most recent C<only>, C<except> or C<level> directive. By default,
1073specifying a logging level enables that and any higher priority messages.
1074
1075=item C<+>I<context>
1076
1077Adds/attaches the named context as slave to the context.
1078
1079=item C<+>
1080
1081A line C<+> clears the slave list form the context. Anonymous (C<%name>)
1082contexts have no slaves by default, but package contexts have the parent
1083context as slave by default.
1084

1086default log collector.

1142=head1 EXAMPLES
1143
1144This section shows some common configurations, both as code, and as
1145C<PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG> string.
1146
1147=over 4
1148
1149=item Setting the global logging level.
1150
1151Either put C<PERL_ANYEVENT_VERBOSE=><number> into your environment before
1152running your program, use C<PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG> or modify the log level of
1153the root context at runtime:
1154
1155 PERL_ANYEVENT_VERBOSE=5 ./myprog
1156
1157 PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG=log=warn
1158
1159 $AnyEvent::Log::FILTER->level ("warn");
1160
1161=item Append all messages to a file instead of sending them to STDERR.
1162
1163This is affected by the global logging level.
1164
1165 $AnyEvent::Log::LOG->log_to_file ($path);
1166
1167 PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG=log=file=/some/path
1168
1169=item Write all messages with priority C<error> and higher to a file.
1170
1171This writes them only when the global logging level allows it, because
1172it is attached to the default context which is invoked I<after> global
1173filtering.
1174
1175 $AnyEvent::Log::FILTER->attach
1176 new AnyEvent::Log::Ctx log_to_file => $path);
1177
1178 PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG=filter=+%filelogger:%filelogger=file=/some/path
1179
1180This writes them regardless of the global logging level, because it is
1181attached to the toplevel context, which receives all messages I<before>
1182the global filtering.
1183
1184 $AnyEvent::Log::COLLECT->attach (
1185 new AnyEvent::Log::Ctx log_to_file => $path);
1186
1187 PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG=%filelogger=file=/some/path:collect=+%filelogger
1188
1189In both cases, messages are still written to STDERR.
1190
1191=item Write trace messages (only) from L<AnyEvent::Debug> to the default logging target(s).
1192
1193Attach the C<$AnyEvent::Log::LOG> context to the C<AnyEvent::Debug>
1194context - this simply circumvents the global filtering for trace messages.
1195
1196 my $debug = AnyEvent::Debug->AnyEvent::Log::ctx;
1197 $debug->attach ($AnyEvent::Log::LOG);
1198
1199 PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG=AnyEvent::Debug=+log
1200
1201This of course works for any package, not just L<AnyEvent::Debug>, but
1202assumes the log level for AnyEvent::Debug hasn't been changed from the
1203default.
