Log::Any 0.14

Log::Any is a Perl module that allows CPAN modules to safely and efficiently log messages, while letting the application choose (or decline to choose) a logging mechanism such as Log::Dispatch or Log::Log4perl.

Log::Any has a very tiny footprint and no dependencies beyond Perl 5.6, which makes it appropriate for even small CPAN modules to use. It defaults to 'null' logging activity, so a module can safely log without worrying about whether the application has chosen (or will ever choose) a logging mechanism.

The application, in turn, may choose one or more logging mechanisms via Log::Any::Adapter.

SYNOPSIS

In a CPAN or other module:

 package Foo;
 use Log::Any qw($log);

 $log->error("an error occurred");
 $log->debugf("arguments are: %s", \@_)
 if $log->is_debug();

 my $log2 = Log::Any->get_logger(category => 'My::Class');

In your application:

 use Log::Any::Adapter;
 
 # Send all logs to Log::Log4perl
 Log::Any::Adapter->set('Log4perl');

 # Send all logs to Log::Dispatch
 my $log = Log::Dispatch->new(outputs => [[ ... ]]);
 Log::Any::Adapter->set( 'Dispatch', dispatcher => $log );

 # See Log::Any::Adapter documentation for more options
