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. AUTHOR
