NAME

App::Kit::Role::Log - A Lazy Façade method role for logging

VERSION

This document describes App::Kit::Role::Log version 0.1

SYNOPSIS

In your class:

with 'App::Kit::Role::Log';

Then later in your program:

$app->log->info(…)

DESCRIPTION

Add lazy façade logging support to your class.

INTERFACE

This role adds one lazy façade method:

log()

Returns a Log::Dispatch object for reuse after lazy loading the module.

By default it goes to “Screen” with a minimum level of “notice” and “newline” set to true. The output will be tap safe when run under testing.

The format (after a # for TAP if applicable) and 2 spaces is space separated string of:

1. Unicode SQUARE LOG character (bytes == \xe3\x8f\x92), non-break-space (bytes == \xc2\xa0), followed by a one letter version of the level (emerg is M since error already has dibs on E).
2. datetime stamp (YYYY-MM-DD and HH:MM:SS connected via non-break-space (bytes == \xc2\xa0)).
3. The log message.

You can configure it anyway you like via your app’s config/log.conf (i.e. $app->fs->file_lookup( 'config', 'log.conf' )).

DIAGNOSTICS

Throws no warnings or errors of its own.

CONFIGURATION AND ENVIRONMENT

Requires no configuration files or environment variables.
