21Possible future extensions are to allow custom log targets (where the 46 use AnyEvent::Log;
22level is an object), log filtering based on package, formatting, aliasing 47 AnyEvent::Log::FILTER->level ("info");
23or package groups.
24 48
49The design goal behind this module was to keep it simple (and small),
50but make it powerful enough to be potentially useful for any module, and
51extensive enough for the most common tasks, such as logging to multiple
52targets, or being able to log into a database.
53
54The amount of documentation might indicate otherwise, but the module is
55still just below 300 lines of code.
56
57=head1 LOGGING LEVELS
58
59Logging levels in this module range from C<1> (highest priority) to C<9>
60(lowest priority). Note that the lowest numerical value is the highest
61priority, so when this document says "higher priority" it means "lower
62numerical value".
63
64Instead of specifying levels by name you can also specify them by aliases:
65
66 LVL NAME SYSLOG PERL NOTE
67 1 fatal emerg exit aborts program!
68 2 alert
69 3 critical crit
70 4 error err die
71 5 warn warning
72 6 note notice
73 7 info
74 8 debug
75 9 trace
76
77As you can see, some logging levels have multiple aliases - the first one
78is the "official" name, the second one the "syslog" name (if it differs)
79and the third one the "perl" name, suggesting that you log C<die> messages
80at C<error> priority.
81
82You can normally only log a single message at highest priority level
83(C<1>, C<fatal>), because logging a fatal message will also quit the
84program - so use it sparingly :)
85
86Some methods also offer some extra levels, such as C<0>, C<off>, C<none>
87or C<all> - these are only valid in the methods they are documented for.

164logging module on demand only. They are also much shorter to write.
165
166Also, if you optionally generate a lot of debug messages (such as when
167tracing some code), you should look into using a logger callback and a
168boolean enabler (see C<logger>, below).

116 my $pfx = ft AE::now; 285logging - when the C<logger> function is called once, but the returned
286logger callback often, then this can be a tremendous speed win.
117 287
118 for (split /\n/, $msg) { 288Despite this speed advantage, changes in logging configuration will
119 printf STDERR "$pfx $_\n"; 289still be reflected by the logger callback, even if configuration changes
120 $pfx = "\t"; 290I<after> it was created.
291
292To further speed up logging, you can bind a scalar variable to the logger,
293which contains true if the logger should be called or not - if it is
294false, calling the logger can be safely skipped. This variable will be
295updated as long as C<$logger> is alive.

303

132=head1 CONFIGURATION FUNCTIONALITY 365=head1 LOGGING CONTEXTS
133 366
134None, yet, except for C<PERL_ANYEVENT_VERBOSE>, described in the L<AnyEvent> manpage. 367This module associates every log message with a so-called I<logging
368context>, based on the package of the caller. Every perl package has its
369own logging context.
370
371A logging context has three major responsibilities: filtering, logging and
372propagating the message.
373
374For the first purpose, filtering, each context has a set of logging
375levels, called the log level mask. Messages not in the set will be ignored
376by this context (masked).
377
378For logging, the context stores a formatting callback (which takes the
379timestamp, context, level and string message and formats it in the way
380it should be logged) and a logging callback (which is responsible for
381actually logging the formatted message and telling C<AnyEvent::Log>
382whether it has consumed the message, or whether it should be propagated).
383
384For propagation, a context can have any number of attached I<slave
385contexts>. Any message that is neither masked by the logging mask nor
386masked by the logging callback returning true will be passed to all slave
387contexts.
388
389Each call to a logging function will log the message at most once per
390context, so it does not matter (much) if there are cycles or if the
391message can arrive at the same context via multiple paths.
392
393=head2 DEFAULTS
394
395By default, all logging contexts have an full set of log levels ("all"), a
396disabled logging callback and the default formatting callback.
397
398Package contexts have the package name as logging title by default.
399
400They have exactly one slave - the context of the "parent" package. The
401parent package is simply defined to be the package name without the last
402component, i.e. C<AnyEvent::Debug::Wrapped> becomes C<AnyEvent::Debug>,
403and C<AnyEvent> becomes ... C<$AnyEvent::Log::COLLECT> which is the
404exception of the rule - just like the "parent" of any single-component
405package name in Perl is C<main>, the default slave of any top-level
406package context is C<$AnyEvent::Log::COLLECT>.
407
408Since perl packages form only an approximate hierarchy, this slave
409context can of course be removed.
410
411All other (anonymous) contexts have no slaves and an empty title by
412default.
413
414When the module is loaded it creates the C<$AnyEvent::Log::LOG> logging
415context that simply logs everything via C<warn>, without propagating
416anything anywhere by default. The purpose of this context is to provide
417a convenient place to override the global logging target or to attach
418additional log targets. It's not meant for filtering.
419
420It then creates the C<$AnyEvent::Log::FILTER> context whose
421purpose is to suppress all messages with priority higher
422than C<$ENV{PERL_ANYEVENT_VERBOSE}>. It then attached the
423C<$AnyEvent::Log::LOG> context to it. The purpose of the filter context
424is to simply provide filtering according to some global log level.
425
426Finally it creates the top-level package context C<$AnyEvent::Log::COLLECT>
427and attaches the C<$AnyEvent::Log::FILTER> context to it, but otherwise
428leaves it at default config. Its purpose is simply to collect all log
429messages system-wide.
430
431The hierarchy is then:
432
433 any package, eventually -> $COLLECT -> $FILTER -> $LOG
434
435The effect of all this is that log messages, by default, wander up to the
436C<$AnyEvent::Log::COLLECT> context where all messages normally end up,
437from there to C<$AnyEvent::Log::FILTER> where log messages with lower
438priority then C<$ENV{PERL_ANYEVENT_VERBOSE}> will be filtered out and then
439to the C<$AnyEvent::Log::LOG> context to be passed to C<warn>.
440
441This makes it easy to set a global logging level (by modifying $FILTER),
442but still allow other contexts to send, for example, their debug and trace
443messages to the $LOG target despite the global logging level, or to attach
444additional log targets that log messages, regardless of the global logging
445level.
446
447It also makes it easy to modify the default warn-logger ($LOG) to
448something that logs to a file, or to attach additional logging targets
449(such as loggign to a file) by attaching it to $FILTER.

457This function creates or returns a logging context (which is an object).
458
459If a package name is given, then the context for that packlage is
460returned. If it is called without any arguments, then the context for the
461callers package is returned (i.e. the same context as a C<AE::log> call
462would use).
463
464If C<undef> is given, then it creates a new anonymous context that is not
465tied to any package and is destroyed when no longer referenced.

538
539This is a convenience constructor that makes it simpler to construct
540anonymous logging contexts.
541
542Each key-value pair results in an invocation of the method of the same
543name as the key with the value as parameter, unless the value is an
544arrayref, in which case it calls the method with the contents of the
545array. The methods are called in the same order as specified.
546
547Example: create a new logging context and set both the default logging
548level, some slave contexts and a logging callback.
549
550 $ctx = new AnyEvent::Log::Ctx
551 title => "dubious messages",
552 level => "error",
553 log_cb => sub { print STDOUT shift; 0 },
554 slaves => [$ctx1, $ctx, $ctx2],
555 ;

575=head2 CONFIGURING A LOG CONTEXT
576
577The following methods can be used to configure the logging context.
578
579=over 4
580
581=item $ctx->title ([$new_title])
582
583Returns the title of the logging context - this is the package name, for
584package contexts, and a user defined string for all others.
585
586If C<$new_title> is given, then it replaces the package name or title.
587

596
597=head3 LOGGING LEVELS
598
599The following methods deal with the logging level set associated with the
600log context.
601
602The most common method to use is probably C<< $ctx->level ($level) >>,
603which configures the specified and any higher priority levels.
604
605All functions which accept a list of levels also accept the special string
606C<all> which expands to all logging levels.
607
608=over 4
609
610=item $ctx->levels ($level[, $level...)
611
612Enables logging for the given levels and disables it for all others.
613
614=item $ctx->level ($level)
615
616Enables logging for the given level and all lower level (higher priority)
617ones. In addition to normal logging levels, specifying a level of C<0> or
618C<off> disables all logging for this level.
619
620Example: log warnings, errors and higher priority messages.
621
622 $ctx->level ("warn");
623 $ctx->level (5); # same thing, just numeric
624
625=item $ctx->enable ($level[, $level...])
626
627Enables logging for the given levels, leaving all others unchanged.
628
629=item $ctx->disable ($level[, $level...])
630
631Disables logging for the given levels, leaving all others unchanged.

677=head3 SLAVE CONTEXTS
678
679The following methods attach and detach another logging context to a
680logging context.
681
682Log messages are propagated to all slave contexts, unless the logging
683callback consumes the message.
684
685=over 4
686
687=item $ctx->attach ($ctx2[, $ctx3...])
688
689Attaches the given contexts as slaves to this context. It is not an error
690to add a context twice (the second add will be ignored).
691
692A context can be specified either as package name or as a context object.
693
694=item $ctx->detach ($ctx2[, $ctx3...])
695
696Removes the given slaves from this context - it's not an error to attempt
697to remove a context that hasn't been added.
698
699A context can be specified either as package name or as a context object.
700
701=item $ctx->slaves ($ctx2[, $ctx3...])
702
703Replaces all slaves attached to this context by the ones given.
704
705=cut
706
707sub attach {
708 my $ctx = shift;
709
710 $ctx->[2]{$_+0} = $_

712}
713
714sub detach {
715 my $ctx = shift;
716
717 delete $ctx->[2]{$_+0}
718 for map { AnyEvent::Log::ctx $_ } @_;
719}
720
721sub slaves {
722 undef $_[0][2];
723 &attach;
724}
725
726=back
727
728=head3 LOG TARGETS
729
730The following methods configure how the logging context actually does
731the logging (which consists of formatting the message and printing it or
732whatever it wants to do with it).
733
734=over 4
735
736=item $ctx->log_cb ($cb->($str))
737
738Replaces the logging callback on the context (C<undef> disables the
739logging callback).
740
741The logging callback is responsible for handling formatted log messages
742(see C<fmt_cb> below) - normally simple text strings that end with a
743newline (and are possibly multiline themselves).
744
745It also has to return true iff it has consumed the log message, and false
746if it hasn't. Consuming a message means that it will not be sent to any
747slave context. When in doubt, return C<0> from your logging callback.
748
749Example: a very simple logging callback, simply dump the message to STDOUT
750and do not consume it.
751
752 $ctx->log_cb (sub { print STDERR shift; 0 });
753
754You can filter messages by having a log callback that simply returns C<1>
755and does not do anything with the message, but this counts as "message
756being logged" and might not be very efficient.
757
758Example: propagate all messages except for log levels "debug" and
759"trace". The messages will still be generated, though, which can slow down
760your program.
761
762 $ctx->levels ("debug", "trace");
763 $ctx->log_cb (sub { 1 }); # do not log, but eat debug and trace messages
764
765=item $ctx->log_to_file ($path)
766
767Sets the C<log_cb> to log to a file (by appending), unbuffered.
768
769=item $ctx->log_to_path ($path)
770
771Same as C<< ->log_to_file >>, but opens the file for each message. This
772is much slower, but allows you to change/move/rename/delete the file at
773basically any time.
774
775=item $ctx->fmt_cb ($fmt_cb->($timestamp, $ctx, $level, $message))
776
777Replaces the formatting callback on the context (C<undef> restores the
778default formatter).
779
780The callback is passed the (possibly fractional) timestamp, the original
781logging context, the (numeric) logging level and the raw message string
782and needs to return a formatted log message. In most cases this will be a
783string, but it could just as well be an array reference that just stores
784the values.
785
786If, for some reaosn, you want to use C<caller> to find out more baout the
787logger then you should walk up the call stack until you are no longer
788inside the C<AnyEvent::Log> package.
789
790Example: format just the raw message, with numeric log level in angle
791brackets.
792
793 $ctx->fmt_cb (sub {
794 my ($time, $ctx, $lvl, $msg) = @_;
795
796 "<$lvl>$msg\n"
797 });
798
799Example: return an array reference with just the log values, and use
800C<PApp::SQL::sql_exec> to store the emssage in a database.
801
802 $ctx->fmt_cb (sub { \@_ });
803 $ctx->log_cb (sub {
804 my ($msg) = @_;
805
806 sql_exec "insert into log (when, subsys, prio, msg) values (?, ?, ?, ?)",
807 $msg->[0] + 0,
808 "$msg->[1]",
809 $msg->[2] + 0,

881
882This section shows some common configurations.
883
884=over 4
885
886=item Setting the global logging level.
887
888Either put PERL_ANYEVENT_VERBOSE=<number> into your environment before
889running your program, or modify the log level of the root context:
890
891 PERL_ANYEVENT_VERBOSE=5 ./myprog
892
893 $AnyEvent::Log::FILTER->level ("warn");
894
895=item Append all messages to a file instead of sending them to STDERR.
896
897This is affected by the global logging level.
898
899 $AnyEvent::Log::LOG->log_to_file ($path); (sub {
900
901=item Write all messages with priority C<error> and higher to a file.
902
903This writes them only when the global logging level allows it, because
904it is attached to the default context which is invoked I<after> global
905filtering.
906
907 $AnyEvent::Log::FILTER->attach
908 new AnyEvent::Log::Ctx log_to_file => $path);
909
910This writes them regardless of the global logging level, because it is
911attached to the toplevel context, which receives all messages I<before>
912the global filtering.
913
914 $AnyEvent::Log::COLLECT->attach (
915 new AnyEvent::Log::Ctx log_to_file => $path);
916
917In both cases, messages are still written to STDERR.
918
919=item Write trace messages (only) from L<AnyEvent::Debug> to the default logging target(s).
920
921Attach the C<$AnyEvent::Log::LOG> context to the C<AnyEvent::Debug>
922context - this simply circumvents the global filtering for trace messages.
923
924 my $debug = AnyEvent::Debug->AnyEvent::Log::ctx;
925 $debug->attach ($AnyEvent::Log::LOG);
926
927This of course works for any package, not just L<AnyEvent::Debug>, but
928assumes the log level for AnyEvent::Debug hasn't been changed from the
929default.
