NAME

Dancer::Logger::Hourlyfile - Rotate writing to log files on an horly basis

VERSION

Version 0.01

DESCRIPTION

This class will write log entries to a separate file every hour. It will append YYYMMDDHH to hour logfile name. If you have multiple servers in a distributed environment, you can even specify to use GMT for the time. Finally, you can specify even greater breakdown by writing into subdirectories YYYY/MM/DD/

filename:

    log/2007120119_filename.log
    ^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^
    |   YYYYMMDDHH Filename 
    Path

            
extended:

    log/2007/12/01/2007120119_filename.log
    |              ^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^
    Path           YYYYMMDDHH Filename 

CONFIGURATION SETTINGS

In your Dancer's environment file set the following:

logger:     "hourlyfile"   # tell Dancer to use this module
log_path:   "/var/log"     # full path
log_hourly: "filename"     # defaults to "filename" if not specified.
                           # The only other option is "extended"
log_file:   "outputfile"   # file name
log_time:   "local"        # defaults to "local" if not specified.  
                             The only other option is "gmt"
