NAME

MooseX::Log::Log4perl::Easy - A role for easy usage of logging in your Moose based modules based on MooseX::Log::Log4perl

SYNOPSIS

package MyApp;
use Moose;
use Log::Log4perl qw(:easy);

with 'MooseX::Log::Log4perl::Easy';

BEGIN {
	Log::Log4perl->easy_init();
}

sub foo {
  my ($self) = @_;
  $self->log_debug("started bar");            ### logs with default class catergory "MyApp"
  $self->log_info('bar');                     ### logs an info message
  $self->log('AlsoPossible')->fatal("croak"); ### log
}

DESCRIPTION

The Easy logging role based on the MooseX::Log::Log4perl logging role for Moose directly adds the logmethods for all available levels to your class instance. Hence it is possible to use

$self->log_info("blabla");

without having to access a seperate log attribute as in MooseX::Log::Log4perl;

In case your app grows and you need more of the super-cow powers of Log4perl or simply don't want the additional methods to clutter up your class you can simply replace all code $self->log_LEVEL with $self->log->LEVEL.

You can use the following regex substitution to accomplish that:

s/log(_(trace|debug|info|warn|error|fatal))/log->$2/g
