NAME
Log::Log4perl::Appender::ScreenColoredLevel - Colorize messages according to level SYNOPSIS
use Log::Log4perl qw(:easy); Log::Log4perl->init( <<'EOT'); log4perl.category = DEBUG, Screen log4perl.appender.Screen = Log::Log4perl::Appender::ScreenColoredLevels log4perl.appender.Screen.layout = Log::Log4perl::Layout::PatternLayout log4perl.appender.Screen.layout.ConversionPattern = %d %F{1} %L> %m %n EOT # Appears black DEBUG "Debug Message"; # Appears green INFO "Info Message"; # Appears blue WARN "Warn Message"; # Appears magenta ERROR "Error Message"; # Appears red FATAL "Fatal Message"; DESCRIPTION
This appender acts like Log::Log4perl::Appender::Screen, except that it colorizes its output, based on the priority of the message sent. You can configure the colors and attributes used for the different levels, by specifying them in your configuration: log4perl.appender.Screen.color.TRACE=cyan log4perl.appender.Screen.color.DEBUG=bold blue You can also specify nothing, to indicate that level should not have coloring applied, which means the text will be whatever the default color for your terminal is. This is the default for debug messages. log4perl.appender.Screen.color.DEBUG= You can use any attribute supported by Term::ANSIColor as a configuration option. log4perl.appender.Screen.color.FATAL= bold underline blink red on_white The commonly used colors and attributes are: attributes BOLD, DARK, UNDERLINE, UNDERSCORE, BLINK colors BLACK, RED, GREEN, YELLOW, BLUE, MAGENTA, CYAN, WHITE background colors ON_BLACK, ON_RED, ON_GREEN, ON_YELLOW, ON_BLUE, ON_MAGENTA, ON_CYAN, ON_WHITE See Term::ANSIColor for a complete list, and information on which are supported by various common terminal emulators. The default values for these options are: Trace Yellow Debug None (whatever the terminal default is) Info Green Warn Blue Error Magenta Fatal Red The constructor "new()" takes an optional parameter "stderr", if set to a true value, the appender will log to STDERR. If "stderr" is set to a false value, it will log to STDOUT. The default setting for "stderr" is 1, so messages will be logged to STDERR by default. The constructor can also take an optional parameter "color", whose value is a hashref of color configuration options, any levels that are not included in the hashref will be set to their default values.

NAME
Log::Log4perl::Appender::Buffer - Buffering Appender SYNOPSIS
use Log::Log4perl qw(:easy); my $conf = qq( log4perl.category = DEBUG, Buffer # Regular Screen Appender log4perl.appender.Screen = Log::Log4perl::Appender::Screen log4perl.appender.Screen.stdout = 1 log4perl.appender.Screen.layout = PatternLayout log4perl.appender.Screen.layout.ConversionPattern = %d %p %c %m %n # Buffering appender, using the appender above as outlet log4perl.appender.Buffer = Log::Log4perl::Appender::Buffer log4perl.appender.Buffer.appender = Screen log4perl.appender.Buffer.trigger_level = ERROR ); Log::Log4perl->init($conf); DEBUG("This message gets buffered."); INFO("This message gets buffered also."); # Time passes. Nothing happens. But then ... print "It's GO time!!! "; ERROR("This message triggers a buffer flush."); DESCRIPTION
"Log::Log4perl::Appender::Buffer" takes these arguments: "appender" Specifies the name of the appender it buffers messages for. The appender specified must be defined somewhere in the configuration file, not necessarily before the definition of "Log::Log4perl::Appender::Buffer". "max_messages" Specifies the maximum number of messages the appender will hold in its ring buffer. "max_messages" is optional. By default, "Log::Log4perl::Appender::Buffer" will not limit the number of messages buffered. This might be undesirable in long-running processes accumulating lots of messages before a flush happens. If "max_messages" is set to a numeric value, "Log::Log4perl::Appender::Buffer" will displace old messages in its buffer to make room if the buffer is full. "trigger_level" If trigger_level is set to one of Log4perl's levels (see Log::Log4perl::Level), a "trigger" function will be defined internally to flush the buffer if a message with a priority of $level or higher comes along. This is just a convenience function. Defining log4perl.appender.Buffer.trigger_level = ERROR is equivalent to creating a trigger function like log4perl.appender.Buffer.trigger = sub { my($self, $params) = @_; return $params->{log4p_level} >= $Log::Log4perl::Level::ERROR; } See the next section for defining generic trigger functions. "trigger" "trigger" holds a reference to a subroutine, which "Log::Log4perl::Appender::Buffer" will call on every incoming message with the same parameters as the appender's "log()" method: my($self, $params) = @_; $params references a hash containing the message priority (key "l4p_level"), the message category (key "l4p_category") and the content of the message (key "message"). If the subroutine returns 1, it will trigger a flush of buffered messages. Shortcut DEVELOPMENT NOTES
"Log::Log4perl::Appender::Buffer" is a composite appender. Unlike other appenders, it doesn't log any messages, it just passes them on to its attached sub-appender. For this reason, it doesn't need a layout (contrary to regular appenders). If it defines none, messages are passed on unaltered. Custom filters are also applied to the composite appender only. They are not applied to the sub-appender. Same applies to appender thresholds. This behaviour might change in the future. COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE
