LoneWanderer-GH / LoggingLib

A WoW LUA logging library to embedd in WoWAce style addons. Also works with DebugLog addon.

LoggingLib

LoggingLib is an Ace3 embeddable logging library designed for addon developpers.

It provides basic logging functions Trace(), Debug(), Info(), Warning(), Error().

It is designed to work with AceConsole-3.0 for print. It also can take advantage of the DebugLog addon instead of printing to chatframe.

Code example:

local addonName, T              = ...
local MyAddon                   = LibStub("AceAddon-3.0"):NewAddon("MyAddon",
                                                                   "AceConsole-3.0",
--@debug@
                                                                   "LoggingLib-0.1"
--@end-debug@
)
local logging_categories_colors = { ["OnInitialize"] = "|r", -- choose whatever color you want
}
--@debug@
local LoggingLib                = LibStub("LoggingLib-0.1") -- TODO: add log levels to embed to avoid this line
--@end-debug@

function MyAddon:OnInitialize()
    -- you can surround your debug code with BigWigs mod packager script style tags
    -- (see https://github.com/BigWigsMods/packager/wiki)
    --@debug@
    MyAddon:InitializeLogging(addonName,
                              nil, -- use default log level color map. can set your own
                              logging_categories_colors, -- required log categories color mapping (compat with debuglog)
                              LoggingLib.TRACE) -- default log level
                              -- TODO: with further embed we will be allowed to write
                              -- MyAddon.TRACE) -- default log level

    -- log debug with category OnInitialize and some text
    MyAddon:Debug("OnInitialize", "Some Logging text")
    -- same with format:
    MyAddon:Debugf("OnInitialize", "Some Logging text: %s", "fooooo")

    MyAddon:SetLogLevel(LoggingLib.INFO)
    -- TODO: with further embed we will be allowed to write
    --MyAddon:SetLogLevel(MyAddon.INFO)
    --@end-debug@
