Log::Any::Adapter::Util(3) Common utility functions for Log::Any

VERSION

version 1.040

DESCRIPTION

This module has utility functions to help develop Log::Any::Adapter subclasses or Log::Any::Proxy formatters/filters. It also has some functions used in internal testing.

USAGE

Nothing is exported by default.

Log level constants

If the ":levels" tag is included in the import list, the following numeric constants will be imported: 

    EMERGENCY => 0
    ALERT     => 1
    CRITICAL  => 2
    ERROR     => 3
    WARNING   => 4
    NOTICE    => 5
    INFO      => 6
    DEBUG     => 7
    TRACE     => 8

FUNCTIONS

logging_methods

Returns a list of all logging method. E.g. ``trace'', ``info'', etc.

detection_methods

Returns a list of detection methods. E.g. ``is_trace'', ``is_info'', etc.

logging_and_detection_methods

Returns a list of logging and detection methods (but not aliases).

log_level_aliases

Returns key/value pairs mapping aliases to ``official'' names. E.g. ``err'' maps to ``error''.

logging_aliases

Returns a list of logging alias names. These are the keys from ``log_level_aliases''.

detection_aliases

Returns a list of detection aliases. E.g. ``is_err'', ``is_fatal'', etc.

numeric_level

Given a level name (or alias), returns the numeric value described above under log level constants. E.g. ``err'' would return 3.

dump_one_line

Given a reference, returns a one-line Data::Dumper dump with keys sorted.

make_method

Given a method name, a code reference and a package name, installs the code reference as a method in the package.

require_dynamic (DEPRECATED)

Given a class name, attempts to load it via require unless the class already has a constructor available. Throws an error on failure. Used internally and may become private in the future.

read_file (DEPRECATED)

Slurp a file. Does *not* apply any layers. Used for testing and may become private in the future.

cmp_deeply (DEPRECATED)

Compares dump_one_line results for two references. Also takes a test label as a third argument. Used for testing and may become private in the future.
