21	Possible future extensions are to allow custom log targets (where the	71	use AnyEvent::Log;
22	level is an object), log filtering based on package, formatting, aliasing	72	$AnyEvent::Log::FILTER->level ("info");
23	or package groups.
24		73
		74	The design goal behind this module was to keep it simple (and small),
		75	but make it powerful enough to be potentially useful for any module, and
		76	extensive enough for the most common tasks, such as logging to multiple
		77	targets, or being able to log into a database.
		78
		79	The module is also usable before AnyEvent itself is initialised, in which
		80	case some of the functionality might be reduced.
		81
		82	The amount of documentation might indicate otherwise, but the runtime part
		83	of the module is still just below 300 lines of code.
		84
		85	=head1 LOGGING LEVELS
		86
		87	Logging levels in this module range from C<1> (highest priority) to C<9>
		88	(lowest priority). Note that the lowest numerical value is the highest
		89	priority, so when this document says "higher priority" it means "lower
		90	numerical value".
		91
		92	Instead of specifying levels by name you can also specify them by aliases:
		93
		94	LVL NAME SYSLOG PERL NOTE
		95	1 fatal emerg exit system unusable, aborts program!
		96	2 alert failure in primary system
		97	3 critical crit failure in backup system
		98	4 error err die non-urgent program errors, a bug
		99	5 warn warning possible problem, not necessarily error
		100	6 note notice unusual conditions
		101	7 info normal messages, no action required
		102	8 debug debugging messages for development
		103	9 trace copious tracing output
		104
		105	As you can see, some logging levels have multiple aliases - the first one
		106	is the "official" name, the second one the "syslog" name (if it differs)
		107	and the third one the "perl" name, suggesting (only!) that you log C<die>
		108	messages at C<error> priority. The NOTE column tries to provide some
		109	rationale on how to chose a logging level.
		110
		111	As a rough guideline, levels 1..3 are primarily meant for users of the
		112	program (admins, staff), and are the only ones logged to STDERR by
		113	default. Levels 4..6 are meant for users and developers alike, while
		114	levels 7..9 are usually meant for developers.
		115
		116	You can normally only log a message once at highest priority level (C<1>,
		117	C<fatal>), because logging a fatal message will also quit the program - so
		118	use it sparingly :)
		119
		120	Some methods also offer some extra levels, such as C<0>, C<off>, C<none>
		121	or C<all> - these are only valid for the methods that documented them.

254		457
255	None, yet, except for C<PERL_ANYEVENT_VERBOSE>, described in the L<AnyEvent> manpage.	458	This module associates every log message with a so-called I<logging
		459	context>, based on the package of the caller. Every perl package has its
		460	own logging context.
		461
		462	A logging context has three major responsibilities: filtering, logging and
		463	propagating the message.
		464
		465	For the first purpose, filtering, each context has a set of logging
		466	levels, called the log level mask. Messages not in the set will be ignored
		467	by this context (masked).
		468
		469	For logging, the context stores a formatting callback (which takes the
		470	timestamp, context, level and string message and formats it in the way
		471	it should be logged) and a logging callback (which is responsible for
		472	actually logging the formatted message and telling C<AnyEvent::Log>
		473	whether it has consumed the message, or whether it should be propagated).
		474
		475	For propagation, a context can have any number of attached I<slave
		476	contexts>. Any message that is neither masked by the logging mask nor
		477	masked by the logging callback returning true will be passed to all slave
		478	contexts.
		479
		480	Each call to a logging function will log the message at most once per
		481	context, so it does not matter (much) if there are cycles or if the
		482	message can arrive at the same context via multiple paths.
		483
		484	=head2 DEFAULTS
		485
		486	By default, all logging contexts have an full set of log levels ("all"), a
		487	disabled logging callback and the default formatting callback.
		488
		489	Package contexts have the package name as logging title by default.
		490
		491	They have exactly one slave - the context of the "parent" package. The
		492	parent package is simply defined to be the package name without the last
		493	component, i.e. C<AnyEvent::Debug::Wrapped> becomes C<AnyEvent::Debug>,
		494	and C<AnyEvent> becomes ... C<$AnyEvent::Log::COLLECT> which is the
		495	exception of the rule - just like the "parent" of any single-component
		496	package name in Perl is C<main>, the default slave of any top-level
		497	package context is C<$AnyEvent::Log::COLLECT>.
		498
		499	Since perl packages form only an approximate hierarchy, this slave
		500	context can of course be removed.
		501
		502	All other (anonymous) contexts have no slaves and an empty title by
		503	default.
		504
		505	When the module is loaded it creates the C<$AnyEvent::Log::LOG> logging
		506	context that simply logs everything via C<warn>, without propagating
		507	anything anywhere by default. The purpose of this context is to provide
		508	a convenient place to override the global logging target or to attach
		509	additional log targets. It's not meant for filtering.
		510
		511	It then creates the C<$AnyEvent::Log::FILTER> context whose
		512	purpose is to suppress all messages with priority higher
		513	than C<$ENV{PERL_ANYEVENT_VERBOSE}>. It then attached the
		514	C<$AnyEvent::Log::LOG> context to it. The purpose of the filter context
		515	is to simply provide filtering according to some global log level.
		516
		517	Finally it creates the top-level package context C<$AnyEvent::Log::COLLECT>
		518	and attaches the C<$AnyEvent::Log::FILTER> context to it, but otherwise
		519	leaves it at default config. Its purpose is simply to collect all log
		520	messages system-wide.
		521
		522	The hierarchy is then:
		523
		524	any package, eventually -> $COLLECT -> $FILTER -> $LOG
		525
		526	The effect of all this is that log messages, by default, wander up to the
		527	C<$AnyEvent::Log::COLLECT> context where all messages normally end up,
		528	from there to C<$AnyEvent::Log::FILTER> where log messages with lower
		529	priority then C<$ENV{PERL_ANYEVENT_VERBOSE}> will be filtered out and then
		530	to the C<$AnyEvent::Log::LOG> context to be passed to C<warn>.
		531
		532	This makes it easy to set a global logging level (by modifying $FILTER),
		533	but still allow other contexts to send, for example, their debug and trace
		534	messages to the $LOG target despite the global logging level, or to attach
		535	additional log targets that log messages, regardless of the global logging
		536	level.
		537
		538	It also makes it easy to modify the default warn-logger ($LOG) to
		539	something that logs to a file, or to attach additional logging targets
		540	(such as loggign to a file) by attaching it to $FILTER.

		697
		698	The following methods deal with the logging level set associated with the
		699	log context.
		700
		701	The most common method to use is probably C<< $ctx->level ($level) >>,
		702	which configures the specified and any higher priority levels.
		703
		704	All functions which accept a list of levels also accept the special string
		705	C<all> which expands to all logging levels.
		706
		707	=over 4
		708
		709	=item $ctx->levels ($level[, $level...)
		710
		711	Enables logging for the given levels and disables it for all others.
		712
		713	=item $ctx->level ($level)
		714
		715	Enables logging for the given level and all lower level (higher priority)
		716	ones. In addition to normal logging levels, specifying a level of C<0> or
		717	C<off> disables all logging for this level.
		718
		719	Example: log warnings, errors and higher priority messages.
		720
		721	$ctx->level ("warn");
		722	$ctx->level (5); # same thing, just numeric
		723
		724	=item $ctx->enable ($level[, $level...])
		725
		726	Enables logging for the given levels, leaving all others unchanged.
		727
		728	=item $ctx->disable ($level[, $level...])
		729
		730	Disables logging for the given levels, leaving all others unchanged.
		731
		732	=item $ctx->cap ($level)
		733
		734	Caps the maximum priority to the given level, for all messages logged
		735	to, or passing through, this context. That is, while this doesn't affect
		736	whether a message is logged or passed on, the maximum priority of messages
		737	will be limited to the specified level - messages with a higher priority
		738	will be set to the specified priority.
		739
		740	Another way to view this is that C<< ->level >> filters out messages with
		741	a too low priority, while C<< ->cap >> modifies messages with a too high
		742	priority.
		743
		744	This is useful when different log targets have different interpretations
		745	of priority. For example, for a specific command line program, a wrong
		746	command line switch might well result in a C<fatal> log message, while the
		747	same message, logged to syslog, is likely I<not> fatal to the system or
		748	syslog facility as a whole, but more likely a mere C<error>.
		749
		750	This can be modeled by having a stderr logger that logs messages "as-is"
		751	and a syslog logger that logs messages with a level cap of, say, C<error>,
		752	or, for truly system-critical components, actually C<critical>.

		860	whatever it wants to do with it).
		861

		864	=item $ctx->log_cb ($cb->($str)
		865
		866	Replaces the logging callback on the context (C<undef> disables the
		867	logging callback).

		869	The logging callback is responsible for handling formatted log messages
		870	(see C<fmt_cb> below) - normally simple text strings that end with a
		871	newline (and are possibly multiline themselves).
		872
		873	It also has to return true iff it has consumed the log message, and false
		874	if it hasn't. Consuming a message means that it will not be sent to any
		875	slave context. When in doubt, return C<0> from your logging callback.
		876
		877	Example: a very simple logging callback, simply dump the message to STDOUT
		878	and do not consume it.
		879
		880	$ctx->log_cb (sub { print STDERR shift; 0 });
		881
		882	You can filter messages by having a log callback that simply returns C<1>
		883	and does not do anything with the message, but this counts as "message
		884	being logged" and might not be very efficient.
		885
		886	Example: propagate all messages except for log levels "debug" and
		887	"trace". The messages will still be generated, though, which can slow down
		888	your program.
		889
		890	$ctx->levels ("debug", "trace");
		891	$ctx->log_cb (sub { 1 }); # do not log, but eat debug and trace messages
		892
		893	=item $ctx->fmt_cb ($fmt_cb->($timestamp, $orig_ctx, $level, $message))
		894
		895	Replaces the formatting callback on the context (C<undef> restores the
		896	default formatter).
		897
		898	The callback is passed the (possibly fractional) timestamp, the original
		899	logging context (object, not title), the (numeric) logging level and
		900	the raw message string and needs to return a formatted log message. In
		901	most cases this will be a string, but it could just as well be an array
		902	reference that just stores the values.
		903
		904	If, for some reason, you want to use C<caller> to find out more about the
		905	logger then you should walk up the call stack until you are no longer
		906	inside the C<AnyEvent::Log> package.

		916
		917	Example: return an array reference with just the log values, and use
		918	C<PApp::SQL::sql_exec> to store the message in a database.
		919
		920	$ctx->fmt_cb (sub { \@_ });

		941
		942	=item $ctx->log_to_path ($path)
		943
		944	Same as C<< ->log_to_file >>, but opens the file for each message. This
		945	is much slower, but allows you to change/move/rename/delete the file at
		946	basically any time.
		947
		948	Needless(?) to say, if you do not want to be bitten by some evil person
		949	calling C<chdir>, the path should be absolute. Doesn't help with
		950	C<chroot>, but hey...
		951
		952	=item $ctx->log_to_syslog ([$facility])
		953
		954	Logs all messages via L<Sys::Syslog>, mapping C<trace> to C<debug> and
		955	all the others in the obvious way. If specified, then the C<$facility> is
		956	used as the facility (C<user>, C<auth>, C<local0> and so on). The default
		957	facility is C<user>.
		958
		959	Note that this function also sets a C<fmt_cb> - the logging part requires
		960	an array reference with [$level, $str] as input.

		1062	=head1 CONFIGURATION VIA $ENV{PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG}
		1063
		1064	Logging can also be configured by setting the environment variable
		1065	C<PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG> (or C<AE_LOG>).
		1066
		1067	The value consists of one or more logging context specifications separated
		1068	by C<:> or whitespace. Each logging specification in turn starts with a
		1069	context name, followed by C<=>, followed by zero or more comma-separated
		1070	configuration directives, here are some examples:
		1071
		1072	# set default logging level
		1073	filter=warn
		1074
		1075	# log to file instead of to stderr
		1076	log=file=/tmp/mylog
		1077
		1078	# log to file in addition to stderr
		1079	log=+%file:%file=file=/tmp/mylog
		1080
		1081	# enable debug log messages, log warnings and above to syslog
		1082	filter=debug:log=+%warnings:%warnings=warn,syslog=LOG_LOCAL0
		1083
		1084	# log trace messages (only) from AnyEvent::Debug to file
		1085	AnyEvent::Debug=+%trace:%trace=only,trace,file=/tmp/tracelog
		1086
		1087	A context name in the log specification can be any of the following:
		1088
		1089	=over 4
		1090
		1091	=item C<collect>, C<filter>, C<log>
		1092
		1093	Correspond to the three predefined C<$AnyEvent::Log::COLLECT>,
		1094	C<AnyEvent::Log::FILTER> and C<$AnyEvent::Log::LOG> contexts.
		1095
		1096	=item C<%name>
		1097
		1098	Context names starting with a C<%> are anonymous contexts created when the
		1099	name is first mentioned. The difference to package contexts is that by
		1100	default they have no attached slaves.
		1101
		1102	=item a perl package name
		1103
		1104	Any other string references the logging context associated with the given
		1105	Perl C<package>. In the unlikely case where you want to specify a package
		1106	context that matches on of the other context name forms, you can add a
		1107	C<::> to the package name to force interpretation as a package.
		1108
		1109	=back
		1110
		1111	The configuration specifications can be any number of the following:
		1112
		1113	=over 4
		1114
		1115	=item C<stderr>
		1116
		1117	Configures the context to use Perl's C<warn> function (which typically
		1118	logs to C<STDERR>). Works like C<log_to_warn>.
		1119
		1120	=item C<file=>I<path>
		1121
		1122	Configures the context to log to a file with the given path. Works like
		1123	C<log_to_file>.
		1124
		1125	=item C<path=>I<path>
		1126
		1127	Configures the context to log to a file with the given path. Works like
		1128	C<log_to_path>.
		1129
		1130	=item C<syslog> or C<syslog=>I<expr>
		1131
		1132	Configures the context to log to syslog. If I<expr> is given, then it is
		1133	evaluated in the L<Sys::Syslog> package, so you could use:
		1134
		1135	log=syslog=LOG_LOCAL0
		1136
		1137	=item C<nolog>
		1138
		1139	Configures the context to not log anything by itself, which is the
		1140	default. Same as C<< $ctx->log_cb (undef) >>.
		1141
		1142	=item C<cap=>I<level>
		1143
		1144	Caps logging messages entering this context at the given level, i.e.
		1145	reduces the priority of messages with higher priority than this level. The
		1146	default is C<0> (or C<off>), meaning the priority will not be touched.
		1147
		1148	=item C<0> or C<off>
		1149
		1150	Sets the logging level of the context to C<0>, i.e. all messages will be
		1151	filtered out.
		1152
		1153	=item C<all>
		1154
		1155	Enables all logging levels, i.e. filtering will effectively be switched
		1156	off (the default).
		1157
		1158	=item C<only>
		1159
		1160	Disables all logging levels, and changes the interpretation of following
		1161	level specifications to enable the specified level only.
		1162
		1163	Example: only enable debug messages for a context.
		1164
		1165	context=only,debug
		1166
		1167	=item C<except>
		1168
		1169	Enables all logging levels, and changes the interpretation of following
		1170	level specifications to disable that level. Rarely used.
		1171
		1172	Example: enable all logging levels except fatal and trace (this is rather
		1173	nonsensical).
		1174
		1175	filter=exept,fatal,trace
		1176
		1177	=item C<level>
		1178
		1179	Enables all logging levels, and changes the interpretation of following
		1180	level specifications to be "that level or any higher priority
		1181	message". This is the default.
		1182
		1183	Example: log anything at or above warn level.
		1184
		1185	filter=warn
		1186
		1187	# or, more verbose
		1188	filter=only,level,warn
		1189
		1190	=item C<1>..C<9> or a logging level name (C<error>, C<debug> etc.)
		1191
		1192	A numeric loglevel or the name of a loglevel will be interpreted according
		1193	to the most recent C<only>, C<except> or C<level> directive. By default,
		1194	specifying a logging level enables that and any higher priority messages.
		1195
		1196	=item C<+>I<context>
		1197
		1198	Attaches the named context as slave to the context.
		1199
		1200	=item C<+>
		1201
		1202	A lone C<+> detaches all contexts, i.e. clears the slave list from the
		1203	context. Anonymous (C<%name>) contexts have no attached slaves by default,
		1204	but package contexts have the parent context as slave by default.
		1205
		1206	Example: log messages from My::Module to a file, do not send them to the
		1207	default log collector.
		1208
		1209	My::Module=+,file=/tmp/mymodulelog
		1210
		1211	=back
		1212
		1213	Any character can be escaped by prefixing it with a C<\> (backslash), as
		1214	usual, so to log to a file containing a comma, colon, backslash and some
		1215	spaces in the filename, you would do this:
		1216
		1217	PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG='log=file=/some\ \:file\ with\,\ \\-escapes'
		1218
		1219	Since whitespace (which includes newlines) is allowed, it is fine to
		1220	specify multiple lines in C<PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG>, e.g.:
		1221
		1222	PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG="
		1223	filter=warn
		1224	AnyEvent::Debug=+%trace
		1225	%trace=only,trace,+log
		1226	" myprog
		1227
		1228	Also, in the unlikely case when you want to concatenate specifications,
		1229	use whitespace as separator, as C<::> will be interpreted as part of a
		1230	module name, an empty spec with two separators:
		1231
		1232	PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG="$PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG MyMod=debug"
		1233
		1234	=cut

		1316
		1317	=item Write all messages with priority C<error> and higher to a file.
		1318
		1319	This writes them only when the global logging level allows it, because
		1320	it is attached to the default context which is invoked I<after> global
		1321	filtering.
		1322
		1323	$AnyEvent::Log::FILTER->attach (
		1324	new AnyEvent::Log::Ctx log_to_file => $path);
		1325
		1326	PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG=filter=+%filelogger:%filelogger=file=/some/path
		1327
		1328	This writes them regardless of the global logging level, because it is
		1329	attached to the toplevel context, which receives all messages I<before>
		1330	the global filtering.
		1331
		1332	$AnyEvent::Log::COLLECT->attach (

		1336
		1337	In both cases, messages are still written to STDERR.
		1338
		1339	=item Additionally log all messages with C<warn> and higher priority to
		1340	C<syslog>, but cap at C<error>.
		1341
		1342	This logs all messages to the default log target, but also logs messages
		1343	with priority C<warn> or higher (and not filtered otherwise) to syslog
		1344	facility C<user>. Messages with priority higher than C<error> will be
		1345	logged with level C<error>.

		1349	level => "warn",

		1355
		1356	=item Write trace messages (only) from L<AnyEvent::Debug> to the default logging target(s).
		1357
		1358	Attach the C<$AnyEvent::Log::LOG> context to the C<AnyEvent::Debug>
		1359	context - this simply circumvents the global filtering for trace messages.
		1360
		1361	my $debug = AnyEvent::Debug->AnyEvent::Log::ctx;

		1363
		1364	PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG=AnyEvent::Debug=+log
		1365
		1366	This of course works for any package, not just L<AnyEvent::Debug>, but
		1367	assumes the log level for AnyEvent::Debug hasn't been changed from the
