62case some of the functionality might be reduced.

67=head1 LOGGING LEVELS
68
69Logging levels in this module range from C<1> (highest priority) to C<9>
70(lowest priority). Note that the lowest numerical value is the highest
71priority, so when this document says "higher priority" it means "lower
72numerical value".
73
74Instead of specifying levels by name you can also specify them by aliases:
75
76 LVL NAME SYSLOG PERL NOTE
77 1 fatal emerg exit aborts program!
78 2 alert
79 3 critical crit
80 4 error err die
81 5 warn warning
82 6 note notice
83 7 info
84 8 debug
85 9 trace
86
87As you can see, some logging levels have multiple aliases - the first one
88is the "official" name, the second one the "syslog" name (if it differs)
89and the third one the "perl" name, suggesting that you log C<die> messages
90at C<error> priority.
91
92You can normally only log a single message at highest priority level
93(C<1>, C<fatal>), because logging a fatal message will also quit the
94program - so use it sparingly :)
95
96Some methods also offer some extra levels, such as C<0>, C<off>, C<none>
97or C<all> - these are only valid in the methods they are documented for.

395By default, C<AnyEvent::Log> will use C<AE::now>, i.e. the cached
396eventloop time, for the log timestamps. After calling this function with a
397true value it will instead resort to C<AE::time>, i.e. fetch the current
398time on each log message. This only makes a difference for event loops
399that actually cache the time (such as L<EV> or L<AnyEvent::Loop>).
400
401This setting can be changed at any time by calling this function.
402
403Since C<AnyEvent::Log> has to work even before the L<AnyEvent> has been
404initialised, this switch will also decide whether to use C<CORE::time> or
405C<Time::HiRes::time> when logging a message before L<AnyEvent> becomes

977=head1 CONFIGURATION VIA $ENV{PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG}
978
979Logging can also be configured by setting the environment variable
980C<PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG> (or C<AE_LOG>).
981
982The value consists of one or more logging context specifications separated
983by C<:> or whitespace. Each logging specification in turn starts with a
984context name, followed by C<=>, followed by zero or more comma-separated
985configuration directives, here are some examples:
986
987 # set default logging level
988 filter=warn
989
990 # log to file instead of to stderr
991 log=file=/tmp/mylog
992
993 # log to file in addition to stderr
994 log=+%file:%file=file=/tmp/mylog
995
996 # enable debug log messages, log warnings and above to syslog
997 filter=debug:log=+%warnings:%warnings=warn,syslog=LOG_LOCAL0
998
999 # log trace messages (only) from AnyEvent::Debug to file
1000 AnyEvent::Debug=+%trace:%trace=only,trace,file=/tmp/tracelog
1001
1002A context name in the log specification can be any of the following:
1003
1004=over 4
1005
1006=item C<collect>, C<filter>, C<log>
1007
1008Correspond to the three predefined C<$AnyEvent::Log::COLLECT>,
1009C<AnyEvent::Log::FILTER> and C<$AnyEvent::Log::LOG> contexts.
1010
1011=item C<%name>
1012
1013Context names starting with a C<%> are anonymous contexts created when the
1014name is first mentioned. The difference to package contexts is that by
1015default they have no attached slaves.
1016
1017=item a perl package name
1018
1019Any other string references the logging context associated with the given
1020Perl C<package>. In the unlikely case where you want to specify a package
1021context that matches on of the other context name forms, you can add a
1022C<::> to the package name to force interpretation as a package.
1023
1024=back
1025
1026The configuration specifications can be any number of the following:
1027
1028=over 4
1029
1030=item C<stderr>
1031
1032Configures the context to use Perl's C<warn> function (which typically
1033logs to C<STDERR>). Works like C<log_to_warn>.
1034
1035=item C<file=>I<path>
1036
1037Configures the context to log to a file with the given path. Works like
1038C<log_to_file>.
1039
1040=item C<path=>I<path>
1041
1042Configures the context to log to a file with the given path. Works like
1043C<log_to_path>.
1044
1045=item C<syslog> or C<syslog=>I<expr>
1046
1047Configures the context to log to syslog. If I<expr> is given, then it is
1048evaluated in the L<Sys::Syslog> package, so you could use:
1049
1050 log=syslog=LOG_LOCAL0
1051
1052=item C<nolog>
1053
1054Configures the context to not log anything by itself, which is the
1055default. Same as C<< $ctx->log_cb (undef) >>.
1056
1057=item C<0> or C<off>
1058
1059Sets the logging level of the context ot C<0>, i.e. all messages will be
1060filtered out.
1061
1062=item C<all>
1063
1064Enables all logging levels, i.e. filtering will effectively be switched
1065off (the default).
1066
1067=item C<only>
1068
1069Disables all logging levels, and changes the interpretation of following
1070level specifications to enable the specified level only.
1071
1072Example: only enable debug messages for a context.
1073
1074 context=only,debug
1075
1076=item C<except>
1077
1078Enables all logging levels, and changes the interpretation of following
1079level specifications to disable that level. Rarely used.
1080
1081Example: enable all logging levels except fatal and trace (this is rather
1082nonsensical).
1083
1084 filter=exept,fatal,trace
1085
1086=item C<level>
1087
1088Enables all logging levels, and changes the interpretation of following
1089level specifications to be "that level or any higher priority
1090message". This is the default.
1091
1092Example: log anything at or above warn level.
1093
1094 filter=warn
1095
1096 # or, more verbose
1097 filter=only,level,warn
1098
1099=item C<1>..C<9> or a logging level name (C<error>, C<debug> etc.)
1100
1101A numeric loglevel or the name of a loglevel will be interpreted according
1102to the most recent C<only>, C<except> or C<level> directive. By default,
1103specifying a logging level enables that and any higher priority messages.
1104
1105=item C<+>I<context>
1106
1107Attaches the named context as slave to the context.
1108
1109=item C<+>
1110
1111A line C<+> detaches all contexts, i.e. clears the slave list from the
1112context. Anonymous (C<%name>) contexts have no attached slaves by default,
1113but package contexts have the parent context as slave by default.
1114
1115Example: log messages from My::Module to a file, do not send them to the
1116default log collector.
1117
1118 My::Module=+,file=/tmp/mymodulelog
1119
1120=back
1121
1122Any character can be escaped by prefixing it with a C<\> (backslash), as
1123usual, so to log to a file containing a comma, colon, backslash and some
1124spaces in the filename, you would do this:
1125
1126 PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG='log=file=/some\ \:file\ with\,\ \\-escapes'
1127
1128Since whitespace (which includes newlines) is allowed, it is fine to
1129specify multiple lines in C<PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG>, e.g.:
1130
1131 PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG="
1132 filter=warn
1133 AnyEvent::Debug=+%trace
1134 %trace=only,trace,+log
1135 " myprog
1136
1137Also, in the unlikely case when you want to concatenate specifications,
1138use whitespace as separator, as C<::> will be interpreted as part of a
1139module name, an empty spec with two separators:
1140
1141 PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG="$PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG MyMod=debug"
1142

1207Either put C<PERL_ANYEVENT_VERBOSE=><number> into your environment before
1208running your program, use C<PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG> or modify the log level of
1209the root context at runtime:

852In both cases, messages are still written to STDOUT. 1245In both cases, messages are still written to STDERR.

862 $debug->levels ("trace"); # not "level"!
863 1254
864This of course works for any package. 1255 PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG=AnyEvent::Debug=+log
1256
1257This of course works for any package, not just L<AnyEvent::Debug>, but
1258assumes the log level for AnyEvent::Debug hasn't been changed from the
1259default.
