Public Class methods

configure(logger=nil)

configures the logger class, if the config has not yet been loaded we default to the console logging class and do not set @configured so that future calls to the log method will keep attempting to configure the logger till we eventually get a logging preference from the config module

cycle_level()

increments the active log level

debug(msg)

Logs at debug level

error(msg)

Logs at error level

fatal(msg)

Logs at fatal level

from()

figures out the filename that called us

info(msg)

Logs at info level

instance()

handle old code that relied on this class being a singleton

log(level, msg, origin=nil)

logs a message at a certain level

logger()

Obtain the class name of the currently configured logger

logmsg(msgid, default, level, args={})

Logs a message at a certain level, the message must be a token that will be looked up from the i18n localization database

Messages can interprolate strings from the args hash, a message with "foo %{bar}" in the localization database will use args[:bar] for the value there, the interprolation is handled by the i18n library itself

set_logger(logger)

sets the logger class to use

warn(msg)

Logs at warn level
