Dancer2::Logger::Log4perl.pm

Ryan made a Dancer2 module Dancer2::Logger::Log4perl.pm so we can log pretty.

Until it is in CPAN, put it in the box location above and created this doc.

Code (and POD), as of the version mentioned at the top of the code, may not be current:

SYNOPSIS

In your config.yml

   logger: log4perl
   log: core
   engines:
      logger:
         log4perl:
            config_file: log4perl.conf

In your log4perl.conf

   log4perl.rootLogger              = DEBUG, LOG1
   log4perl.appender.LOG1           = Log::Log4perl::Appender::File
   log4perl.appender.LOG1.filename  = /var/log/mylog.log
   log4perl.appender.LOG1.mode      = append
   log4perl.appender.LOG1.layout    = Log::Log4perl::Layout::PatternLayout
   log4perl.appender.LOG1.layout.ConversionPattern = %d %p %m %n

DESCRIPTION

This class is an interface between Dancer's logging engine abstraction layer and the Log::Log4perl library. In order to use it, you have to set the logger engine to log4perl.

Dancer's core level messages are passed to Log4perl as level trace but will not be passed unless Dancer's log config is core.

log should be set a lower priority than the lowest priority as set in your Log4perl configuration. If it isn't, Dancer::Logger::Abstract will not pass the message to Log4perl.

CONFIGURATION

If you don't specify config_file then Log4perl will easy init with the appropriate log level, as specified by Dancer2.

config_file

You can specify the log4perl configuration file using the config_file option:

   logger: log4perl
   engines:
      logger:
         log4perl:
            config_file: log4perl.conf
config_watch_interval

You can optionally specify the watch interval, either in seconds or as 'HUP':

   logger: log4perl
   engines:
      logger:
         log4perl:
            config_file: log4perl.conf
            config_watch_interval: 30
package Dancer2::Logger::Log4perl;

$Dancer2::Logger::Log4perl::VERSION = '0.02';
use Log::Log4perl qw( :easy );
use Moo;
use Dancer2::Core::Types;

with 'Dancer2::Core::Role::Logger';

has config_file => (
	is => 'ro',
	isa => ReadableFilePath,
);

has config_watch_interval => (
	is => 'ro',
	isa => sub {
		my $config_watch_interval = shift;
		
		# Can either be 'HUP' or a number
		Str->( $config_watch_interval );
		if( $config_watch_interval eq 'HUP' ) {
			return;
		}
		else {
			Num->( $config_watch_interval );
		}
	},
);

sub _initialize_log4perl {
	my $self = shift;
	
	# If config_file is defined, then use that
	if( defined $self->config_file ) {
		
		# ...optionally with the watch interval
		if( defined $self->config_watch_interval ) {
			Log::Log4perl->init_and_watch( $self->config_file, $self->config_watch_interval );
		}
		else {
			Log::Log4perl->init( $self->config_file );
		}
	}
	
	# Otherwise we'll easy init with the appropriate log level
	else {
		my $log_level_mapping = {
			'error'   => $ERROR,
			'warn'    => $WARN,
			'warning' => $WARN,
			'info'    => $INFO,
			'debug'   => $DEBUG,
			'trace'   => $TRACE,
			'core'    => $TRACE,
		};
	
		Log::Log4perl->easy_init( $log_level_mapping->{ $self->log_level } );
	}
}

sub log {
	my ( $self, $level, $message ) = @_;
	
	# Need to initialize Log4perl if it isn't yet
	if( !Log::Log4perl->initialized() ) {
		$self->_initialize_log4perl();
	}
	
	# Need to convert Dancer2 log levels to Log4perl levels
	$level = 'warn' if $level eq 'warning';
	$level = 'trace' if $level eq 'core';

	# Couldn't get $Log::Log4perl::caller_depth to work
	Log::Log4perl->get_logger( scalar caller(4) )->$level( $message );
}

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This class is an interface between L<Dancer>'s logging engine abstraction
layer and the L<Log::Log4perl> library. In order to use it, you have to
set the C<logger> engine to C<log4perl>.

L<Dancer>'s C<core> level messages are passed to L<Log4perl> as level C<trace>
but will not be passed unless L<Dancer>'s C<log> config is C<core>.

C<log> should be set a lower priority than the lowest priority as set in your
L<Log4perl> configuration. If it isn't, L<Dancer::Logger::Abstract> will not
pass the message to L<Log4perl>.

=head1 CONFIGURATION

If you don't specify C<config_file> then Log4perl will easy init with the 
appropriate log level, as specified by Dancer2.
