The Default Provider

While SLF4D is designed in a decoupled way so you can plug in any logging provider you want, most often it'll just be convenient to use SLF4D's Default Provider. This logging provider is usually good enough for most simple use cases.

Usage

module my_app;

import slf4d;
import slf4d.default_provider;

void main() {
    auto provider = new DefaultProvider(
        true,         // Enable colored output using ANSI color codes.
        Levels.DEBUG, // Only log messages that are DEBUG or higher (so no TRACE).
        "log-files"   // Also write log messages to files in the "log-files" dir.
    );
    // Only show errors from loggers whose name matches "^std" regex.
    provider.getLoggerFactory().setModuleLevel("^std", Levels.ERROR);
    // Only show warnings or higher from loggers whose name starts with "requests".
    provider.getLoggerFactory().setModuleLevelPrefix("requests", Levels.WARN);
    configureLoggingProvider(provider); // Tell SLF4D to use our provider.

    info("Starting my app!");
    // Do some stuff here...
}
