397
398By default, C<AnyEvent::Log> will use C<AE::now>, i.e. the cached
399eventloop time, for the log timestamps. After calling this function with a
400true value it will instead resort to C<AE::time>, i.e. fetch the current
401time on each log message. This only makes a difference for event loops
402that actually cache the time (such as L<EV> or L<AnyEvent::Loop>).
403
404This setting can be changed at any time by calling this function.
405
406Since C<AnyEvent::Log> has to work even before the L<AnyEvent> has been
407initialised, this switch will also decide whether to use C<CORE::time> or
408C<Time::HiRes::time> when logging a message before L<AnyEvent> becomes
409available.

982=head1 CONFIGURATION VIA $ENV{PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG}
983
984Logging can also be configured by setting the environment variable
985C<PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG> (or C<AE_LOG>).
986
987The value consists of one or more logging context specifications separated
988by C<:> or whitespace. Each logging specification in turn starts with a
989context name, followed by C<=>, followed by zero or more comma-separated
990configuration directives, here are some examples:
991
992 # set default logging level
993 filter=warn
994
995 # log to file instead of to stderr
996 log=file=/tmp/mylog
997
998 # log to file in addition to stderr
999 log=+%file:%file=file=/tmp/mylog
1000
1001 # enable debug log messages, log warnings and above to syslog
1002 filter=debug:log=+%warnings:%warnings=warn,syslog=LOG_LOCAL0
1003
1004 # log trace messages (only) from AnyEvent::Debug to file
1005 AnyEvent::Debug=+%trace:%trace=only,trace,file=/tmp/tracelog
1006
1007A context name in the log specification can be any of the following:
1008
1009=over 4
1010
1011=item C<collect>, C<filter>, C<log>
1012
1013Correspond to the three predefined C<$AnyEvent::Log::COLLECT>,
1014C<AnyEvent::Log::FILTER> and C<$AnyEvent::Log::LOG> contexts.
1015
1016=item C<%name>
1017
1018Context names starting with a C<%> are anonymous contexts created when the
1019name is first mentioned. The difference to package contexts is that by
1020default they have no attached slaves.
1021
1022=item a perl package name
1023
1024Any other string references the logging context associated with the given
1025Perl C<package>. In the unlikely case where you want to specify a package
1026context that matches on of the other context name forms, you can add a
1027C<::> to the package name to force interpretation as a package.
1028
1029=back
1030
1031The configuration specifications can be any number of the following:
1032
1033=over 4
1034
1035=item C<stderr>
1036
1037Configures the context to use Perl's C<warn> function (which typically
1038logs to C<STDERR>). Works like C<log_to_warn>.
1039
1040=item C<file=>I<path>
1041
1042Configures the context to log to a file with the given path. Works like
1043C<log_to_file>.
1044
1045=item C<path=>I<path>
1046
1047Configures the context to log to a file with the given path. Works like
1048C<log_to_path>.
1049
1050=item C<syslog> or C<syslog=>I<expr>
1051
1052Configures the context to log to syslog. If I<expr> is given, then it is
1053evaluated in the L<Sys::Syslog> package, so you could use:
1054
1055 log=syslog=LOG_LOCAL0
1056
1057=item C<nolog>
1058
1059Configures the context to not log anything by itself, which is the
1060default. Same as C<< $ctx->log_cb (undef) >>.
1061
1062=item C<0> or C<off>
1063
1064Sets the logging level of the context ot C<0>, i.e. all messages will be
1065filtered out.
1066
1067=item C<all>
1068
1069Enables all logging levels, i.e. filtering will effectively be switched
1070off (the default).
1071
1072=item C<only>
1073
1074Disables all logging levels, and changes the interpretation of following
1075level specifications to enable the specified level only.
1076
1077Example: only enable debug messages for a context.
1078
1079 context=only,debug
1080
1081=item C<except>
1082
1083Enables all logging levels, and changes the interpretation of following
1084level specifications to disable that level. Rarely used.
1085
1086Example: enable all logging levels except fatal and trace (this is rather
1087nonsensical).
1088
1089 filter=exept,fatal,trace
1090
1091=item C<level>
1092
1093Enables all logging levels, and changes the interpretation of following
1094level specifications to be "that level or any higher priority
1095message". This is the default.
1096
1097Example: log anything at or above warn level.
1098
1099 filter=warn
1100
1101 # or, more verbose
1102 filter=only,level,warn

1104=item C<1>..C<9> or a logging level name (C<error>, C<debug> etc.)
1105
1106A numeric loglevel or the name of a loglevel will be interpreted according
1107to the most recent C<only>, C<except> or C<level> directive. By default,
1108specifying a logging level enables that and any higher priority messages.
1109
1110=item C<+>I<context>
1111
1112Attaches the named context as slave to the context.
1113
1114=item C<+>
1115
1116A line C<+> detaches all contexts, i.e. clears the slave list from the
1117context. Anonymous (C<%name>) contexts have no attached slaves by default,
1118but package contexts have the parent context as slave by default.
1119
1120Example: log messages from My::Module to a file, do not send them to the
1121default log collector.
1122
1123 My::Module=+,file=/tmp/mymodulelog
1124
1125=back
1126
1127Any character can be escaped by prefixing it with a C<\> (backslash), as
1128usual, so to log to a file containing a comma, colon, backslash and some
1129spaces in the filename, you would do this:
1130
1131 PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG='log=file=/some\ \:file\ with\,\ \\-escapes'
1132
1133Since whitespace (which includes newlines) is allowed, it is fine to
1134specify multiple lines in C<PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG>, e.g.:
1135
1136 PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG="
1137 filter=warn
1138 AnyEvent::Debug=+%trace
1139 %trace=only,trace,+log
1140 " myprog
1141
1142Also, in the unlikely case when you want to concatenate specifications,
1143use whitespace as separator, as C<::> will be interpreted as part of a
1144module name, an empty spec with two separators:
1145
1146 PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG="$PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG MyMod=debug"
