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
401Since C<AnyEvent::Log> has to work even before the L<AnyEvent> has been
402initialised, this switch will also decide whether to use C<CORE::time> or
403C<Time::HiRes::time> when logging a message before L<AnyEvent> becomes
404available.

976
977Logging can also be configured by setting the environment variable
978C<PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG> (or C<AE_LOG>).
979
980The value consists of one or more logging context specifications separated
981by C<:> or whitespace. Each logging specification in turn starts with a
982context name, followed by C<=>, followed by zero or more comma-separated
983configuration directives, here are some examples:
984
985 # set default logging level
986 filter=warn
987
988 # log to file instead of to stderr
989 log=file=/tmp/mylog
990
991 # log to file in addition to stderr
992 log=+%file:%file=file=/tmp/mylog
993
994 # enable debug log messages, log warnings and above to syslog
995 filter=debug:log=+%warnings:%warnings=warn,syslog=LOG_LOCAL0
996
997 # log trace messages (only) from AnyEvent::Debug to file
998 AnyEvent::Debug=+%trace:%trace=only,trace,file=/tmp/tracelog
999
1000A context name in the log specification can be any of the following:
1001
1002=over 4
1003
1004=item C<collect>, C<filter>, C<log>
1005
1006Correspond to the three predefined C<$AnyEvent::Log::COLLECT>,
1007C<AnyEvent::Log::FILTER> and C<$AnyEvent::Log::LOG> contexts.
1008
1009=item C<%name>
1010
1011Context names starting with a C<%> are anonymous contexts created when the
1012name is first mentioned. The difference to package contexts is that by
1013default they have no attached slaves.
1014
1015=item a perl package name
1016
1017Any other string references the logging context associated with the given
1018Perl C<package>. In the unlikely case where you want to specify a package
1019context that matches on of the other context name forms, you can add a
1020C<::> to the package name to force interpretation as a package.
1021
1022=back
1023
1024The configuration specifications can be any number of the following:
1025
1026=over 4
1027
1028=item C<stderr>
1029
1030Configures the context to use Perl's C<warn> function (which typically
1031logs to C<STDERR>). Works like C<log_to_warn>.
1032
1033=item C<file=>I<path>
1034
1035Configures the context to log to a file with the given path. Works like
1036C<log_to_file>.
1037
1038=item C<path=>I<path>
1039
1040Configures the context to log to a file with the given path. Works like
1041C<log_to_path>.
1042
1043=item C<syslog> or C<syslog=>I<expr>
1044
1045Configures the context to log to syslog. If I<expr> is given, then it is
1046evaluated in the L<Sys::Syslog> package, so you could use:
1047
1048 log=syslog=LOG_LOCAL0
1049
1050=item C<nolog>
1051
1052Configures the context to not log anything by itself, which is the
1053default. Same as C<< $ctx->log_cb (undef) >>.
1054
1055=item C<0> or C<off>
1056
1057Sets the logging level of the context ot C<0>, i.e. all messages will be
1058filtered out.
1059
1060=item C<all>
1061
1062Enables all logging levels, i.e. filtering will effectively be switched
1063off (the default).
1064
1065=item C<only>
1066
1067Disables all logging levels, and changes the interpretation of following
1068level specifications to enable the specified level only.
1069
1070Example: only enable debug messages for a context.
1071
1072 context=only,debug
1073
1074=item C<except>
1075
1076Enables all logging levels, and changes the interpretation of following
1077level specifications to disable that level. Rarely used.
1078
1079Example: enable all logging levels except fatal and trace (this is rather
1080nonsensical).
1081
1082 filter=exept,fatal,trace
1083
1084=item C<level>
1085
1086Enables all logging levels, and changes the interpretation of following
1087level specifications to be "that level or any higher priority
1088message". This is the default.
1089
1090Example: log anything at or above warn level.
1091
1092 filter=warn
1093
1094 # or, more verbose
1095 filter=only,level,warn
1096
1097=item C<1>..C<9> or a logging level name (C<error>, C<debug> etc.)
1098
1099A numeric loglevel or the name of a loglevel will be interpreted according
1100to the most recent C<only>, C<except> or C<level> directive. By default,
1101specifying a logging level enables that and any higher priority messages.
1102
1103=item C<+>I<context>
1104
1105Attaches the named context as slave to the context.
1106
1107=item C<+>
1108
1109A line C<+> detaches all contexts, i.e. clears the slave list from the
1110context. Anonymous (C<%name>) contexts have no attached slaves by default,
1111but package contexts have the parent context as slave by default.
1112
1113Example: log messages from My::Module to a file, do not send them to the
1114default log collector.
1115
1116 My::Module=+,file=/tmp/mymodulelog
1117
1118=back
1119
1120Any character can be escaped by prefixing it with a C<\> (backslash), as
1121usual, so to log to a file containing a comma, colon, backslash and some
1122spaces in the filename, you would do this:
1123
1124 PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG='log=file=/some\ \:file\ with\,\ \\-escapes'
1125
1126Since whitespace (which includes newlines) is allowed, it is fine to
1127specify multiple lines in C<PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG>, e.g.:
1128
1129 PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG="
1130 filter=warn
1131 AnyEvent::Debug=+%trace
1132 %trace=only,trace,+log
1133 " myprog
1134
1135Also, in the unlikely case when you want to concatenate specifications,
1136use whitespace as separator, as C<::> will be interpreted as part of a
1137module name, an empty spec with two separators:
1138
1139 PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG="$PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG MyMod=debug"
