NAME
dtRdr::Logger - global logging
SYNOPSIS
use dtRdr::Logger;
L->debug($message, ...);
L->info($message, ...);
L->warn($message, ...);
L->error($message, ...);
L->fatal($message, ...);
For a stacktrace:
sub bar {
L()->logcluck("foo");
}
See Log::Log4perl for more info.
ABOUT
This (currently) installs a $SIG{__WARN__}, though we'll probably try to move away from that.
import
dtRdr::Logger->import(@args);
Get Logger
L
A shortcut to return a logger object FOR YOUR NAMESPACE with an optional list of subtags.
L($subtag);
Example:
package My::Package;
my $logger = L;
my $logger = L('#foo');
Now $logger will log into the class 'log4perl.logger.My.Package.#foo'.
$subtag MUST start with a #. If this is omitted, it will be changed.
RL
A shortcut to a root-level logger.
RL($tag);
my $logger = RL('#foo');
Now $logger which will log into the class 'log4perl.logger.#foo'.
$tag MUST start with a #. If this is omitted, it will be changed.
editor
Launches $ENV{THOUT_EDITOR} with a tempfile containing $string.
Just a handy way to get some debugging data into an editor.
dtRdr::Logger->editor($string);
Or, to do lazy evaluation only when needed, pass a sub that returns a string.
dtRdr::Logger->editor(sub {do_stuff_that_takes_time()});
DBG_DUMP
Similar to editor, but writes to a tempfile in "/tmp/$filename".
DBG_DUMP($ENV_NAME, $filename, sub {$content});
Only acts if $ENV{"DBG_$ENV_NAME"} is set.
DBG_FOO=1 ./Build test
...will cause this
DBG_DUMP('foo', 'thisfile.txt', sub {$blah});
...to write the content of $blah to '/tmp/thisfile.txt'.
The sub {$thing} thing is a speed hack, but that variable is big enough to make you want to open it in an editor, so...
init
dtRdr::Logger->init(filename => "foo");
