filtering logs per destination

Types

type level = Lwt_log_core.level =

| Debug
(*
Debugging message. They can be automatically removed by the syntax extension.
*)
| Info
(*
Informational message. Suitable to be displayed when the program is in verbose mode.
*)
| Notice
(*
Same as Info, but is displayed by default.
*)
| Warning
(*
Something strange happend
*)
| Error
(*
An error message, which should not means the end of the program.
*)
| Fatal
(*
A fatal error happened, in most cases the program will end after a fatal error.
*)

Type of log levels. A level determines the importance of a message

type logger = Lwt_log_core.logger

Type of a logger. A logger is responsible for dispatching messages and storing them somewhere.

type section = Lwt_log_core.section

Each logging message has a section. Sections can be used to structure your logs. For example you can choose different loggers according to the section.

Each section carries a level, and messages with a lower log level than than the section level will be dropped.

Section levels are initialised using the contents of the LWT_LOG environment variable, which must contain one or more rules of the form pattern -> level separated by ";". Where pattern is a string that may contain *.

For example, if LWT_LOG contains:

access -> warning;
foo[*] -> error

then the level of the section "access" is Warning and the level of any section matching "foo[*]" is Error.

If the pattern is omited in a rule then the pattern "*" is used instead, so LWT_LOG may just contain "debug" for instance.

By default, the following rule apply : "* -> notice"

val string_of_level : level -> string

val level_of_string : string -> level option

val load_rules : ?fail_on_error:bool -> string -> unit

Reset the rules set when parsing the LWT_LOG environment variable using this string.

parameter fail_on_error
defines if the function will raise Failure if it encounters a malformed rule

raises Failure
if an invalid rule is found and fail_on_error is true
load_rules parses the rules string and validates the rules before loading them. If fail_on_error is true, invalid rules will cause this function to raise Failure and leave existing rules unchanged. If fail_on_error is false (this is the default), it tries to load as many rules as possible and ignore invalid ones. If the rules string itself cannot be parsed, existing rules are always left unchanged.
Example:
```
Lwt_log_core.load_rules ~fail_on_error:true "* -> nosuchlevel" (* Raises Failure *)
Lwt_log_core.load_rules "* -> info"
```

val add_rule : string -> level -> unit

add_rule pattern level adds a rule for sections logging levels. The rule is added before all other rules. It takes effect immediately and affects all sections for which the level has not been set explicitly with Section.set_level. pattern may contains *. For example:

Lwt_log_core.add_rule "lwt*" Lwt_log_core.Info

val append_rule : string -> level -> unit

append_rule pattern level adds the given rule after all other rules. For example to set the default fallback rule:

Lwt_log_core.append_rule "*" Lwt_log_core.Info

val reset_rules : unit -> unit

removes all rules.

Logging functions

The following functions are the same as log except that their name determines which level is used.

For example info msg is the same as log ~level:Info msg.

module Section = Lwt_log_core.Section

Sections

Log templates

type template = Lwt_log_core.template

A template is for generating log messages.

It is a string which may contains variables of the form $(var), where var is one of:

message which will be replaced by the message emited
level which will be replaced by a string representation of the level
section which will be replaced by the name of the message's section
loc-file which will be replaced by the file name of the calling logging function
loc-line which will be replaced by the line number of the calling logging function
loc-column which will be replaced by the column number of the calling logging function

For example:

"$(name): $(message)"
"$(name): $(loc-file): $(loc-line): $(loc-column): $(message)"

val render : 
  buffer:Buffer.t ->
  template:template ->
  section:section ->
  level:level ->
  message:string ->
  unit

render ~buffer ~template ~section ~level ~message instantiate all variables of template, and store the result in buffer. The location is obtained from threads local storage.

val location_key : (string * int * int) Lwt.key

The key for storing current location.

Loggers

exception Logger_closed

Exception raised when trying to use a closed logger

val make : 
  output:(section -> level -> string list -> unit Lwt.t) ->
  close:(unit -> unit Lwt.t) ->
  logger

make ~output ~close creates a new logger.

parameter output
is used to write logs. It is a function which receive a section, a level and a list lines that must be logged together.

parameter close
is used to close the logger.

val close : logger -> unit Lwt.t

Close the given logger

val default : logger ref

The default logger. It is used as default when no one is specified. If Lwt_core is linked (in the package lwt.unix) the default logger sends all messages to standard error. Otherwise the default logger is null.

val broadcast : logger list -> logger

broadcast loggers is a logger which send messages to all the given loggers.

Note: closing a broadcast logger does not close its components.

val dispatch : (section -> level -> logger) -> logger

dispatch f is a logger which dispatch logging instructions to different logger according to their level and/or section.

Here is an example:

let access_logger = Lwt_log.file "access.log"
and error_logger = Lwt_log.file "error.log" in

Lwt_log_core.dispatch
  (fun section level ->
    match Lwt_log_core.Section.name section, level with
      | "access", _ -> access_logger
      | _, Lwt_log_core.Error -> error_logger)

Predefined loggers

val null : logger

Logger which drops everything

Lwt logger for js_of_ocaml

Predefined logger

val console : Lwt_log_core.logger

Logger that use the javascript console object.

Logging functions

val log : 
  ?inspect:'v ->
  ?exn:exn ->
  ?section:section ->
  ?location:(string * int * int) ->
  ?logger:logger ->
  level:level ->
  string ->
  unit Lwt.t

log ?section ?logger ~level message logs a message.

section defaults to Section.main. If logger is not specified, then the default one is used instead (see default).

If exn is provided, then its string representation (= Printexc.to_string exn) will be append to the message, and if possible the backtrace will also be logged.

If inspect is provided, it will be append to the message.

location contains the location of the logging directive, it is of the form (file_name, line, column).

val log_f : 
  ?inspect:'v ->
  ?exn:exn ->
  ?section:section ->
  ?location:(string * int * int) ->
  ?logger:logger ->
  level:level ->
  ('a, unit, string, unit Lwt.t) format4 ->
  'a

log_f is the same as log except that it takes a format string

val ign_log : 
  ?inspect:'v ->
  ?exn:exn ->
  ?section:section ->
  ?location:(string * int * int) ->
  ?logger:logger ->
  level:level ->
  string ->
  unit

Same as log but ignore the resulting thread.

val ign_log_f : 
  ?inspect:'v ->
  ?exn:exn ->
  ?section:section ->
  ?location:(string * int * int) ->
  ?logger:logger ->
  level:level ->
  ('a, unit, string, unit) format4 ->
  'a

Same as log_f but ignore the resulting thread.

The following functions are the same as log except that their name determines which level is used.

For example info msg is the same as log ~level:Info msg.
