DESCRIPTION

Mojolicious::Plugin::Log::Any is a Mojolicious plugin that redirects the application logger to pass its log messages to an external logging framework using "attach_logger" in Mojo::Log::Role::AttachLogger. By default, Log::Any is used, but a different framework or object may be specified. For Log::Any or Log::Log4perl, log messages are dispatched with a category of the application class name, which is Mojolicious::Lite for lite applications.

The default behavior of the Mojo::Log object to filter messages by level, keep history, prepend a timestamp, and write log messages to a file or STDERR will be suppressed. It is expected that the logging framework output handler will be configured to handle these details as necessary.

METHODS

Mojolicious::Plugin::Log::Any inherits all methods from Mojolicious::Plugin and implements the following new ones.
