NAME
    MooseX::LazyLogDispatch - A Logging Role for Moose

VERSION
    This document describes MooseX::LazyLogDispatch version 0.01

SYNOPSIS
        package MyApp;
        use Moose;

        with MooseX::LazyLogDispatch;
        # or alternately, use this role instead to give your
        # class the logger methods "debug", "warning", etc...
        # with MooseX::LazyLogDispatch::Levels;

        # This part optional
        #  without it you get some default logging to the screen
        has log_dispatch_conf => (
           is => 'ro',
           isa => 'Log::Dispatch::Configurator',
           lazy => 1,
           required => 1,
           default => sub {
               my $self = shift;
               My::Configurator->new( # <- you write this class!
                   file => $self->log_file,
                   debug => $self->debug,
               );
           },
        );

        #  hashref to configure things without an explicit subclass

                   };
           },

DESCRIPTION
    Log::Dispatch role for use with your Moose classes.

INTERFACE
  logger
    This method is provided by this role, and it is an Log::Dispatch
    instance, which you can call level-names on, as in the debug examples in
    the synopsis.

    If you want the level-names as direct methods in your class, you should
    use the MooseX::LazyLogDispatch::Levels role instead.

  log_dispatch_config
    This is an optional attribute you can give to your class. If you define
    it as a hashref value, that will be interpreted in the style of the
    configuration hashrefs documented in Log::Dispatch::Config documents
    when they show examples of using Log::Dispatch::Configurator for
    pluggable configuration.

    You can also gain greater flexibility by defining your own complete
    Log::Dispatch::Configurator subclass and having your
    "log_dispatch_config" attribute be an instance of this class.

    By lazy-loading either one ("lazy =" 1>), you can have the configuration
    determined at runtime. This is nice if you want to change your log
    format and/or destination at runtime based on things like MooseX::Getopt
    / MooseX::Daemonize parameters.

    If you don't provide this attribute, we'll default to sending everything
    to the screen in a reasonable debugging format.
