Constructor Details

#initialize(filename, level = nil, &block) ⇒ File

Create a File Logger appender instance

Example

require 'semantic_logger'

# Enable trace level logging
SemanticLogger.default_level = :info

# Log to screen
SemanticLogger.add_appender(STDOUT)

# And log to a file at the same time
SemanticLogger::Logger.add_appender('application.log')

logger = SemanticLogger['test']
logger.info 'Hello World'

Example 2. To log all levels to file and only :info and above to screen:

require 'semantic_logger'

# Enable trace level logging
SemanticLogger.default_level = :trace

# Log to screen but only display :info and above
SemanticLogger.add_appender(STDOUT, :info)

# And log to a file at the same time, including all :trace level data
SemanticLogger.add_appender('application.log')

logger =  SemanticLogger['test']
logger.info 'Hello World'

def flush
  @log.flush if @log.respond_to?(:flush)
end

#log(log) ⇒ Object

Pass log calls to the underlying Rails, log4j or Ruby logger

trace entries are mapped to debug since :trace is not supported by the
Ruby or Rails Loggers

# File 'lib/semantic_logger/appender/file.rb', line 74

def log(log)
  # Since only one appender thread will be writing to the file at a time
  # it is not necessary to protect access to the file with a semaphore
  # Allow this logger to filter out log levels lower than it's own
  @log.write(@formatter.call(log) << "\n") if level_index <= (log.level_index || 0)
end

#reopenObject

After forking an active process call #reopen to re-open open the file handles etc to resources

Note: This method will only work if a String filename was supplied

on the initializer.
