DESCRIPTION

This plugin injects a color() method into the Catalyst::Log namespace.

Sometimes when I am monitoring 'tail -f error_log' or './script/my_server.pl' during develop phase , I could not find log message because of a lot of logs. This plugin may help to find it out. This plugin is using Term::ANSIColor .

Of course when you open log file with vi or some editor , the color wont change and also you will see additional log such as 'oraora'.

METHOD

color

 $c->log->color($var, 'text color' , 'background color');

this color method wrap up log->debug() . text color and background color is optional.
