init(*opts) click to toggle source

Use #init when you want to set up the logger manually. Arguments to this method get passed directly to Logger.new, so check out the documentation for the standard Logger class to understand what to do here.

If this method is called with no arguments, it will log to STDOUT at the :warn level.

It also configures the Logger instance it creates to use the custom Mixlib::Log::Formatter class.

# File lib/mixlib/log.rb, line 78
def init(*opts)
  reset!
  @logger = logger_for(*opts)
  @logger.formatter = Mixlib::Log::Formatter.new() if @logger.respond_to?(:formatter=)
  @logger.level = Logger::WARN
  @logger
end

def level(new_level=nil)
  if new_level.nil?
    LEVEL_NAMES[logger.level]
  else
    self.level=(new_level)
  end
end
level=(new_level) click to toggle source

Sets the level for the Logger object by symbol. Valid arguments are:

:debug
:info
:warn
:error
:fatal

Throws an ArgumentError if you feed it a bogus log level.

# File lib/mixlib/log.rb, line 95
def level=(new_level)
  level_int = LEVEL_NAMES.key?(new_level) ? new_level : LEVELS[new_level]
  raise ArgumentError, "Log level must be one of :debug, :info, :warn, :error, or :fatal" if level_int.nil?
  loggers.each {|l| l.level = level_int }
end
log(severity, message = nil, progname = nil, &block)

init always returns a configured logger and creates a new one if it doesn't yet exist

# File lib/mixlib/log.rb, line 46
def logger
  @logger || init
end
logger=(new_log_device) click to toggle source

Sets the log device to new_log_device. Any additional loggers that had been added to the loggers array will be cleared.

# File lib/mixlib/log.rb, line 52
def logger=(new_log_device)
  reset!
  @logger=new_log_device
end
loggers() click to toggle source

An Array of log devices that will be logged to. Defaults to just the default @logger log device, but you can push to this array to add more devices.

# File lib/mixlib/log.rb, line 38
def loggers
  @loggers ||= [logger]
end
method_missing(method_symbol, *args, &block) click to toggle source

Passes any other method calls on directly to the underlying Logger object created with init. If this method gets hit before a call to Mixlib::Logger.init has been made, it will call Mixlib::Logger.init() with no arguments.

# File lib/mixlib/log.rb, line 144
def method_missing(method_symbol, *args, &block)
  loggers.each {|l| l.send(method_symbol, *args, &block) }
