NAME

SVK::Logger - logging framework for SVK

SYNOPSIS

  use SVK::Logger;
  
  $logger->warn('foo');
  $logger->info('bar');

or

  use SVK::Logger '$foo';
  
  $foo->error('bad thingimajig');

DESCRIPTION

SVK::Logger is a wrapper around Log::Log4perl. When using the module, it imports into your namespace a variable called $logger (or you can pass a variable name to import to decide what the variable should be) with a category based on the name of the calling module.

MOTIVATION

Ideally, for support requests, if something is not going the way it should be we should be able to tell people: "rerun the command with the SVKLOGLEVEL environment variable set to DEBUG and mail the output to $SUPPORTADDRESS". On Unix, this could be accomplished in one command like so:

  env SVKLOGLEVEL=DEBUG svk <command that failed> 2>&1 | mail $SUPPORTADDRESS
