log::dispatch::configurator::appconfig

Log::Dispatch::Configurator::AppConfig(3pm)		User Contributed Perl Documentation	       Log::Dispatch::Configurator::AppConfig(3pm)

NAME

       Log::Dispatch::Configurator::AppConfig - Configurator implementation with AppConfig

SYNOPSIS

	 use Log::Dispatch::Config;
	 use Log::Dispatch::Configurator::AppConfig;

	 my $config = Log::Dispatch::Configurator::AppConfig->new('log.cfg');
	 Log::Dispatch::Config->configure($config);

	 # nearby piece of code
	 my $log = Log::Dispatch::Config->instance;

DESCRIPTION

       Log::Dispatch::Configurator::AppConfig is an implementation of Log::Dispatch::Configurator using AppConfig format. Here is a sample of
       config file.

	 dispatchers = file screen

	 file.class = Log::Dispatch::File
	 file.min_level = debug
	 file.filename = /path/to/log
	 file.mode = append
	 file.format = [%d] [%p] %m at %F line %L%n

	 screen.class = Log::Dispatch::Screen
	 screen.min_level = info
	 screen.stderr = 1
	 screen.format = %m

       You can use ini style grouping.

	 [file]
	 class = Log::Dispatch::File
	 min_level = debug

	 [screen]
	 class = Log::Dispatch::Screen
	 min_level = info

       If you use _ (underscore) in dispatcher name, something very bad may happen. It is safe when you avoid doing so.
